Unresolved links not opening under card view

Links aren't opening when tapped on if you have either card view set, in v254.

Example post.

For affected users, you may want to temporarily switch to a list view until a fix is implemented.

Initially reported by i_am_not_a_robot.

Poster's instance blocked when instance blocking

I think it was working fine previously but I just noticed in v252 that when you try to block an instance, it blocks the instance of the poster rather than the community the post was made.

Bug with downloading

Hello !

When I try to download an image, with the new good looking (๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿผ) popup overlay, I get this error:

Profile picture errors

Started seeing this every now and then on v251. Previously I don't recall seeing this. It only occurs when a profile picture has issues loading and typically is temporary; the error is removesd once the link resolves. Before it's resolved, it can be a hindrance.

I support apps being more verbose and error messages but in this particular case, I don't think the error message is necessary; if the a profile picture link doesn't resolve, so be it. Maybe on an user profile page, it may be more of a consideration.

Link opening in external browser broken

Was working in a recent version but now everything opens in the internal browser. I'm on v247.

EDIT: For posts with links where the thumbnail is not resolving, the link goes to the external browser. For everything else, it opens in the internal browser; with the open external setting on.

Export settings not exporting all settings

First and foremost, I'm really glad this feature has finally been added. Many have requested and it's here. Unfortunately, it's not fully baked yet.

Filters(keyword), MultiCommunities, and user notes are not exported in v244. Domain and other filters may also not be exported; I didn't have those so I'm not sure if they get exported.

So whatever you do, don't go clearing the app cache and expect everything to be saved when you import. Like I did. I only have myself to blame for testing freshly implemented features on beta builds. Losing my user notes hurt.

Keyboard pop-up bug

Recently, I noticed the keyboard would sometimes pop up at random times and I finally figured out reproducible steps.

Search any community from the sidebar and tap on it. Tap on a post and then tap and hold the screen, sliding it to the right. The keyboard should popup for some reason, even though there is no input field on-screen(after the post view is off-screen). This only seems to happen if the search field in the sidebar has text inputted. I was wondering why the heck the keyboard keeps popping up.

Pinned posts showing up at bottom of page 1

Pinned posts were showing up at the top of communities a couple of versions back but they're following your sort settings in v241. And I think a few versions prior as well.

EDIT: Ah, so they're actually showing up at the bottom of page 1. They don't follow your sort settings and enabling the page number setting revealed that specific.

Vote count sometimes not updating until feed update bug

I'm not sure what the trigger is for this but it seems to occur after a couple hours of not using Connect. So sometimes when I view posts in a community, the vote count for it is around half of the actual count when I go back to viewing the community page. If I open the community in my browser, the current vote count indicates the community view in Connect is up to date. I can view other posts or go back into affected posts and the count will be incorrect.

I think viewing other subscribed communities will also not fix the problem. It is corrected when I view one of my feeds and then go back to the posts. I've only noticed this happening with the Canada community on Lemmy.ca, so it may be community specific but I suspect it's not and my other subscribed communities aren't as active to test.

I've only noticed this recently, so maybe it's only been introduced in to last couple of updates, or it's been longer and I haven't paid attention.

Hey everyone! So, I thought it would be a nice idea to put together a list of all the bigger news stories that may have been missed over the last week. There's always something going on in the Steam Deck world, so I wanted to share a roundup of news. If this is something you guys like, I will start doing this every week!

If you would like to see more information, like weekly available bundles and such, just let me know and I can add it to next week's list.

Is anyone having an issue with lemmy loading very slowly when logged in on a browser?

Edit: Clearing the cache fixed it, thanks!

This has been occurring for a while now, and I've recently noticed that:

  • It only happens when logged in (not incognito mode)
  • It only happens on my desktop browser, not Jerboa (I haven't tested a mobile browser)

Especially looking to see if it happens on other instances/other browsers/other mobile clients

Information:

  • Desktop OS: Windows 10
  • Desktop browser: Firefox
  • Mobile client: Jerboa
  • Instance: lemmy.dbzer0.com

I initially just chalked this up to the instance being slow, but I recently noticed it not happening when logged out

Draft not saved after setting image?

I typed out a post and went to add the picture for it but after the upload, a draft wasn't saved and the body section was empty. It was only two sentences so not a big loss. This is with v232.

Also, can the title be saved with the drafts as well? The title field is never saved.

EDIT: Interestingly, the title is saved after selecting an image but the body is not. While a saved draft, after backing out of post creation, doesn't include the title.

EDIT2: Another bug is post edits are no longer appearing after you submit them. Even when you back out to the community view and go into the post to refresh it, the updated post is not reflected and you need to reopen Connect for the things to be updated.

Hourly sort options gone?

Sort options like Top 6 hours, Top 1 hour are missing from v229?

Post overflow menu issues

After you tap on the three dots to bring up the new overflow menu, tapping outside of it to dismiss the menu registers as a regular tap on the feed. So I tap to close the menu but end up going to a post I didn't intend to.

There also seems to be a delay of half a second or so from tapping on the menu and it appearing. This is occurring on my Pixel 6 on v226. IIRC the old menu was faster.

Also I wanna throw shade at the new organization. It definitely looks better and should be organized. Personally, I liked having the option to block the community directly from the menu; now I have to tap on the block sub-menu first. Like the add user notes, now I gotta tap once more. But I'll adjust.

Video continues playing after being closed?

After unmuting the video here and then closing it, the audio continues to play. This is occuring on v224.

EDIT: Occuring with other videos so it's not specific to that one. The only way to stop the audio at the moment is to go back to the video that was playing and mute it.

Ollama not using AMD GPU on Arch Linux

cross-posted from: https://lemmy.world/post/27088416

This is an update to a previous post found at https://lemmy.world/post/27013201


Ollama uses the AMD ROCm library which works well with many AMD GPUs not listed as compatible by forcing an LLVM target.

The original Ollama documentation is wrong as the following can not be set for individual GPUs, only all or none, as shown at github.com/ollama/ollama/issues/8473

AMD GPU issue fix

  1. Check your GPU is not already listed as compatibility at github.com/ollama/ollama/blob/main/docs/gpu.md#linux-support
  2. Edit the Ollama service file. This uses the text editor set in the $SYSTEMD_EDITOR environment variable.
 undefined
    
sudo systemctl edit ollama.service


  
  1. Add the following, save and exit. You can try different versions as shown at github.com/ollama/ollama/blob/main/docs/gpu.md#overrides-on-linux

disappearing menu bar

I keep running into a situation where the top menu bar disappears. I can scroll up down and enter/exit posts but I can't e.g. change filter settings because the interface elements for them aren't there. Most recently this happened when I blocked a community- my feed was reset and my menu bar disappeared.

Update April 19 2025 seems to be fixed in current beta Version 1.0.251

.gif file gray screen rendering bug

I'm consistently getting this bug on 1.0.216. If I go to this post, tap on IninewCrow's comment, that starts with "Like Drump ...", to minimize that thread, then tap on it again to restore the thread, everything below their comment becomes an endless gray screen. Backing out and then opening the post again will fix the problem. When first entering the post, if I tap on a comment in one of the other thread chains, then I'm able to minimize comments in that particular chain without triggering the bug.

EDIT: This looks related so I'll add it here. If I go to this post, tap on AlolanVulpix's link, back out to the post, then tap on the overflow menu for the post, the whole screen becomes gray.

Also, AlolanVulpix's link isn't being resolved correctly by Connect andย produces a "GoException: no routes for location: /post/39971490/14887796?hint=39971490/14887796&hintInstance=lemmy.ca" error but viewing the post in the b
