Are the comment upvote and downvote numbers gone intentionally?

There are now settings to display or hide them
That's cool, but it doesn't seem to work for me. I have all on in my settings:
But the numbers don't show:
I might be a bit confused, but I just went to my settings to see, and both "show upvotes" and "show downvotes" were ticked already, by default. I refreshed the page (Ctr+Shift+R), and it's still the same.
Thanks!

Nice
Do you think you guys could do a post on the underlying hardware/infrastructure of .world? I would love to see what it takes to run the largest Lemmy instance lmao
in short form, we have HAproxy running on a hetzner cloud VM for Lemmy/Lemmy-UI, another HAproxy VM for the alt UIs, a VM for the alt UIs.
for the main LW box, which runs lemmy containers, lemmy-ui, pictrs and a database each for lemmy and pictrs, we have a physical box with an EPYC 7502P 32 core CPU, 128GB memory and NVMe SSDs.
I can sort the comments [ new/old etc] now! ( Jerboa).
congrats

Finally, the ability to view (and delete!) your own uploads.
FYI, the sorting on the uploads tab is broken. Obviously I don't expect sorting by "top" or "controversial" or whatever to work, but sorting by "old" doesn't, either. It's always sorted by newest first. But at least it's something. (I know for sure I have images uploaded that were not used in posts.)
I tried making an image post from the app and the browser and both of them timeout every time I try to upload.
we're still investigating some performance issues due to one of the lemmy processes hammering our CPU :/
Hey, do you think you can add the running version of the instance on the column that is on the right side of the lemmy.world website?
No need to do that, you can simply scroll down to the footer and find the current version there ;)
Right xd
URL Blocking, at last. Now I can block all those AI shit websites on my communities :D
And being able to comment on locked post, what a nice QoL enhancement :D

Huh? How? I don't see anything about this in the six linked changelogs.
In 0.19.4, section "Moderation enhancements"
In 0.19.4, section βModeration enhancementsβ
But this is about admins being able to block URLs, not about mods of communities.
Someone ELI5 why Lemmy is or isn't ready for a Reddit Exodus.
Personally, I want it to be. Reddit censorship/shadowbans/deletes is outta control. Imo the problem lemmy has is on Desktop, since on Android there are some great apps like Boost that give it a Reddit-like end user experience, wheras Desktop experience in a browser is No equivalent of RES, or classic reddit. Opening images is very janky. I like RESs 'view images buttons, that untwirls all view image buttons. Using lemmy on desktop is a Chore. I can handle it. But I imagine its very much a bad taste and an impediment to a greater influx of average users.
Its about time we left reddit behind and make Desktop lemmy more welcoming. The times we're in requires a trustable platform. Reddit ain't it.
For me to rely on Lemmy for news, there needs to be a LOT more action. Right now Reddit can be my sole news source because of how many people are on there.
The problem can be seen when looking at Twitter/X and the exodus that has been happening there. Mastodon was touted as a Twitter alternative but the onboarding was so confusing due to being federated. People don't want to be confused they want things simple. This is why BlueSky took off rather than Mastodon.
Anyone remember Diaspora?*
Decentralization is not a new idea, it's just too confusing to the masses right now. While the Lemmy onboarding process is actually pretty good, picking an instance is a trip up (it was for me for a very long time and I'm tech-savvy). Until that part is solved centralized services will always have more migrating users sadly.

Lemmy is an alternative to Reddit, you can visit https://phtn.app/ to have a look at the content, and install an app using https://vger.app/settings/install.

in my opinion it's the login experience. selecting an instance is too confusing for the average user.

I think it's just a matter of explaining instances in a clear and concise way. This isn't a Lemmy-specific issue though - it's a problem for all of the fediverse.
https://join-lemmy.org/instances says "You can access all content in the lemmyverse from any server, so it doesn't matter which one you choose.", but that still leaves some things unanswered.
It seems to have done a decent job of helping new users find a suitable server with a few simple questions though.

I can't wait! We'll finally get to do a real world test for the parallel sending features!! And if all goes well I'll get to save 5 Euro a month!
Thanks LW
Is that a young dr farnsworth?
That's the guy who works at the cryogenics facility that Fry was frozen at for 1000 years.
Dr. Farnsworth used to have red hair, the same as his ancestor Fry and his younger clone Cubert.
