Mobile web for beehaw support is a page and a half of stickies. It’s not a particular great user experience. 😬

I feel like, Lemmy’s default sorting would’ve naturally given many of these posts some organic prominence.

    I agree. The current UI is really good for this point in Lemmy’s development. However, it has some way to go. One problem is that on mobile, post size can be scaled too big, since it will not truncate text. Leaving large posts like the useful sticked threads taking up half your phone screen on some of the apps.

    Not sure how to suggest to work around this. The sticked threads are valuable and shouldn’t have to compromise for the shortcomings of the UI.

    Unfortunately there’s a massive influx of new users and there’s undoubtedly going to be an uptick on top of the uptick showing up July 1st. That’s a lot of newbs. A week ago it was 10000 people versus 700 the week of two prior. People who’ve already read those notices and are tired of seeing them might become like 1% of the population.

        That is pretty good catch. I did mean to… and I did post it there. My browser window was still open with that tab (the suggestions thread) on top as I left it. Returned half hour later, I clicked the notification icon and this is my notification. I didn’t even see this thread before; I didn’t open it or anything. In my FF browser history it says I have visited this URL 1 time (after clicking the notification).

        So no idea how it got redirected here. I’m happy to admit to user error or potential user error but in this case I am 99% certain something weird happened.

        Hopefully an isolated incident… But if there are imps running around in the server misfiling things that could cause quite the confusion.

        Thanks for letting me know. I feel like I should file a bug report or something but not sure where.
