- Comment on Why is UI design backsliding? 1 month ago:
Padding is a very versatile thing in UI design, and none of it will make anything look terrible.
Even in your first example, the toolbar has slight padding on the edges and so do the buttons.
The reason there’s more padding now is because it makes it easier for new users to process everything.

Lemmy will be indexed less than Reddit, ignoring user counts, because lemmy-ui is client rendered. Googlebot and some others can still index client rendered sites, but others will ignore the content.

Well links are supposed to be just !community@instance.url, but for some reason people keep making it an actual markdown link which is not what you’re supposed to do. It’s like Reddit’s r/community. You dont need a markdown link.

- Comment on Can we all agree that whatever version of predictive text we have nowadays is crap, and has been for a long time? 6 months ago:
Even though gboard is a google product and probably sends a ton of data, the autocorrect has never been an issue for me personally. I can type much faster because it will always autocorrect to what I intend.
