That’s why you should always search for or file a bug report before trying to create a fix.

ACTUALLY it’s GNU/Linux (pronounced gu-noo-SLASH-li-nux). I know it’s just a “meme”, but get your facts straight buddy, this ain’t fucking le reddit.

Don’t make me have to rm -rf your ass.

It happened even while I was typing the above comment. Replying to you now doesn’t seem to do it, maybe because only 2 comments are visible in this view. I guess the full comment thread also tries to load new comments automatically?

Also, scrolling around sometimes abruptly loses momentum, which is very jarring on iOS.

So I’m not the only one experiencing weird jittery scrolling that jumps around on its own for no reason?

Actually I was referring to the background of the comment being colored yellow instead of white. I think it’s because it was recently posted when I saw it. It’s not yellow anymore, but another comment here posted more recently did appear yellow until after it passed the 10 minute mark.

So I guess lemmy just highlights comments that are less than 10 minutes old. IIRC reddit had a feature like that for gold users, but it only did it after you already visited the comments section at least once.

Why is your comment highlighted yellow for me? (via lemmy.world web ui)

Extremely charitable guess: they want it to be open to prevent the spread of germs slightly (so nobody has to touch a door), but need the option of closing it after school hours to prevent vandalism.
