  • Don't get baited into back-and-forth insults. We are not animals.
  • Leave remarks of "peasantry" to the PCMR community. If you dislike an OS/service/application, attack the thing you dislike, not the individuals who use it. Some people may not have a choice.
  • Bigotry will not be tolerated.
  • 3. Post Linux-related content
  • Including Unix and BSD.
  • Non-Linux content is acceptable as long as it makes a reference to Linux. For example, the poorly made mockery of sudo in Windows.
  • No porn, no politics, no trolling or ragebaiting.
  • 4. No recent reposts
  • Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, <loves/tolerates/hates> systemd, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.

    wtf, why does clicking on the link give me an ad for voyager?

    [–] tgxn@lemmy.tgxn.net 8 points 4 days ago (3 children)

    It shows the post he's referring to, and it shows Voyager branding since he used the apps share option instead of sending the original link. At the bottom of the page there's a link to the full context. I'm not a fan of Voyager for doing this.

    Huh, voyager did not use to do that., I think

    I'm not a fan of that either.

    What alternatives do you recommend?

    [–] nocturne@slrpnk.net 2 points 4 days ago

    If on iOS I recommend Mlem.

    [–] tgxn@lemmy.tgxn.net 2 points 4 days ago (2 children)

    I have Sync for Lemmy simply because that's what I used before coming to Lemmy. However, I'd say just make sure you copy the original link (to lemmy.world for example) instead of the voyager link, should be easy enough

    Maybe I'll check this one out next. Although I like Raccoons Ui because it's sleek, I don't like that you can't get rid of posts in /all, which is annoying since there's always duplicates.

    [–] Lumisal@lemmy.world 2 points 4 days ago

    I'm looking into switching to Raccoon, which someone recommended

    [–] reseller_pledge609@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 4 days ago (1 children)

    Thunder is what I usually use.

    Raccoon isn't bad either.

    [–] Lumisal@lemmy.world 2 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago) (1 children)

    Thanks! I downloaded Raccoon and will try it out soon

    Nice. Hope it works for you.

    [–] nocturne@slrpnk.net 1 points 4 days ago (1 children)

    While yes there is a link to the original content, clicking it does not let me view it within my own app of choice. So not only is it an ad, but it forces you to view anything shared on web or voyager.

    [–] aeharding@vger.social 1 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago)

    This is actually a bug that the link doesn’t unwrap when you paste it into Voyager. It should be fixed in the next release.

    Edit: also if your app handles threadiverse.link links in app, you can ask them to handle vger.to links in the same way. Both services use the exact same link format so it’s no extra code.

    [–] reseller_pledge609@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 4 days ago (1 children)

    It's a setting that can be changed. Sucks that that's the default, but Voyager can send original links too.

    [–] aeharding@vger.social 2 points 3 days ago

    It’s a bug that will be fixed in the next release. If you paste links in the Voyager app, they should automatically unwrap.
