I'm experiencing a login issue related to Microsoft Edge on Mac OS.

Upon entering login credentials, the purple LOGGED IN popup box appears in lower left, but I am still not logged in. Upper right still shows SIGN IN. If I try to do anything, it redirects me to login page, credentials are entered, returned to home page again, but not logged in. Repeat ad infinitum.

Chrome and Safari work fine.

Browser: Microsoft Edge.Version 115.0.1901.183 (Official build) (x86_64)

OS: macOS 11.7.8 (20G1351)

Not sure if this has been mentioned. But as I just joined I was looking through communities to join and noticed there were several with the same name but just lower case instead or with a space between words.

Should community names be case sensitive and no spaces to make sure there are fewer duplicates/lookalike communities?

Can we have more sort options? Like, "Top - Hour" ?

I used to browse reddits all/rising. I find engaging a post early on is the best way to participate in an active discussion. New/Top Today just aren't returning the right posts.

(Couldn't find this suggestion anywhere else in this thread)

Someone has probably mentioned it already but Jerboa is giving me this error when trying to use lemmy.world

It it possible to add thumbnails to posts in photography communities?

When attempting to sign in on the Thunder app to the lemmy.world instance I get the error "LemmyApiException: Record not found" whether I use my username or e-mail I signed up with as the username.

I am signed in to the instance in my web browser and have already verified my e-mail, so I know my account is active.

I have an issue to share and it's not major, but some of the links are wrong depending on the UI.

For instance, in the default UI, the link for your Privacy Policy page is This, but it should be This Instead (Note the trailing hyphen on the bad/dead link).

Of course, that's not a major concern and it is very minor, but misplaced legal docs could be problematic long-term.

I was setting up my account earlier today and I tried to set up 2 factor authentication but experienced some errors. I clicked the box and reloaded my settings but I wasn't able to enter an email or anything into the authentication method.

Creating a new community, and the form is completely filled out, but when I press "create" it circles back to the top of the form. Also what is the difference between Name and Display Name. Name is what it keeps highlighting.

How do I add moderators and remove myself as a mod. I can't find the controls to do so.

The 3 dot menu has no effect if it is not my post either, and I gathered from the github that was one way to do it.

Using firefox, latest version.

Suggestion for improvement: Change default sorting to Hot instead of Active. At least currently, Active keeps a handful of the same posts permanently on top, giving the impression of inactivity for newcomers used to Reddit. Hot will provide a more varied front page.

Issue:

So, I've created !childfree as a local community, seemingly normal. Only, it doesn't seem to be accessible to anyone locally.

Meaning, https://lemmy.world/c/childfree gives me a 404. Instead, I have to open it as https://lemmy.world/c/childfree@lemmy.world - initially I thought maybe I had made an error creating the community and added the instance, but trying to replicate it shows that @ is not a permitted character, so the problem must have come from elsewhere.

From other instances now I can access it just fine: https://latte.isnot.coffee/c/childfree@lemmy.world or https://feddit.de/c/childfree@lemmy.world (where the @instance is the default behaviour). Locally however, that should not have happened.

Even if I enter the community locally, and click on the !childfree just below the name of the community, it gives me a local 404 (see below).

Any idea what's going on here, and how to resolve the problem? Since we are redirecting users from our sub here, it's creating quite some headaches... And apparently users trying to subscribe from other instances also don't see any posts for up to 48h (tried that myself).

Edit: Apparently I cannot access the community via feddit.de. The other one works fine though - I do have accounts on either instance.
