Added .webm support to the image viewer and image peek

This, along with the other image viewer fixes is a massive quality of life upgrade! 🙌

Surprised nobody’s said The Division yet. The first one is incredible fun IMO, and the second one is good, but not as much fun.

As OP now mentioned, they have still the button navigation, so the swipe navigation probably should not be activated for them.

That’s precisely the problem. OP and I have the same setup, and Sync is incorrectly responding to the swipe.

When I swipe up slowly, I see all open apps. When I do it fast, I come back to the home screen.

This doesn’t seem related to what’s being discussed here, that’s the Android task manager, which in OP and my case is the button on the right (the three bars).

@ljdawson@lemmy.world would you be able to confirm if this is Sync-specific functionality, and if it is intended please? Thanks!

Oh, very interesting, and this is when you swipe on the back button, i.e. the left of the screen? Which OS/device do you have, out of curiosity?

For me on Android 12 on S10e, no other apps display this behaviour.

You are right, I’ve experienced the same thing. I’ve tried disabling all Sync settings relating to swipe actions and even enabled the setting to open the drawer instead of exiting when hitting the Android back button. No other apps have this gesture, and I’ve verified this is not an Android/Samsung setting. This seems like a big.

No, that’s not true. Note that he’s not talking about hitting back, rather swiping up from the Android back button. All other apps ignore this gesture. The gesture itself is different from what happens if you hit the back button in Sync.

You’re tripping, I’ve donated :)

I seem to be missing a bottle of vodka

Maybe your 10 year old has it?

Agreed. I think it dilutes user engagement, because people will leave comments on these bot threads, never to be seen by anybody else.

I went ahead and blocked it and spend time on HN along with Lemmy instead. HN discussions on those posts are always so much livelier than those sad, but interesting copycat posts.

I know about Mastodon instances run by the government, but are there any lemmy instances run by governments?

The expression in the last panel of the unaltered comic is much funnier IMO:

Interesting that banned users are visible on a post in lemmy! I would have thought their posts would be hidden.

Oh, that makes it even more hilarious!

Yeah, but I thought he was drawing a parallel between Wizard of Oz and something else, i.e. Elsa is the wicked witch of the East. If it’s older than Frozen, then it’s probably not that!

Hilarious! Is he talking about the Frozen sisters?

Oh, reading fail 🤦

I don’t see my karma anywhere on Sync? 🤔 maybe I’ve disabled it in settings, but I don’t remember ever seeing it.
