It varies widely from one community to another, but Lemmy is certainly much smaller than reddit. I think that some communities have hit the tipping point where there are enough people to keep things going. The smaller communities are still working at that, but they still provide useful information and good company. Lemmy is growing so I expect the situation to improve over time.

Personally I haven’t run into the kind of hostility that some people are reporting. It’s sad that it’s out there, but be aware that it is not the universal Lemmy experience. I suspect it depends heavily on what communities you frequent and what instance you are on. Eventually I expect the toxic areas to implode, or just drift away into isolation, as they are replaced by similar communities with better members and better moderation.

That was happening to me too. Removing and adding my accounts again fixed it, but it is good to know the why as well as the how. Thank you!

I’m not sure whether it’s Jerboa, Lemmy, or both, but the they seem to be ignoring the metadata embedded in the image that indicates what rotation to use. It can be avoided by stripping the metadata and rotating the image the way you want it to appear. There are plenty of free apps (like GIMP) that can do it easily enough.

It is a nuisance, but a relatively minor one, once you know what’s going on.

The pace of development has been impressive!

I appreciate the help!

I do have the latest version from the Play Store.

I get the “You must be logged in to do this” popup, but when I go to the left drawer menu at the top it thinks I am logged in, so the only option is to log out or change instances. I can only get the Log In option if I tell it to log me out first. Basically Jerboa seems out of sync with itself about the state of my login.
