I just started noticing this happen today. For example I was reading posts in the mycology community and posts from comics started appearing at the top of the page. I’m assuming this is a bug but is there anything I can do about it from my end, or do I just have to wait for the next update? FYI I’m just on the desktop browser, not using any apps.
Maybe you were hallucinating. :-P
j/k, it’s a bug. I’ve seen it happen a few times.
Sheesh I haven’t even started trying to grow that kind of mushroom yet, and already the jokes are flying high! 😛
(And wow, lemmy’s method of emoji’s is weird… if I type :-p I get a pop-up dialog. I then have to delete the -p and I get back to regular smilies, but only a few. Then while scrolling through them the pop-up changed to a whole new list of the emojis I actually expected… WTF?)
It’s infuriating. If someone knows how to disable let us know
A quick follow-up… so it turns out the whole emoji thing here relies on you typing a colon and then the NAME of the emoji. If you wants smilies you type “:s” and it will give you that list. Of course this presumes you know what Lemmy named all the emojis, and there doesn’t seem to be a way to bring up the whole list of what’s available. It just doesn’t make any sense.
bizarre - I appreciate you doing the legwork
