Why can’t I expand images and videos beyond this arbitrary border?
If you want to go back to reddit because of that, then you never really left reddit
Can you clarify what you mean by that? It sounds strangely gatekeepy to me, but maybe I’m misunderstanding
Sorry, but this post is ridiculous. I hope it’s irony. We are on Lemmy for our shared values and in order to uphold them. Standing up for what is important to you despite technical difficulties (especially such minor ones like the one you are dealing with) is a display of integrity. This issue should not motivate you to leave Lemmy for Reddit.
Which values are those? I’ve seen legit nazis on this platform.
I just want to be able to see images at a proper size. Doesn’t seem like a big ask.
Use Connect for Lemmy.
I used Boost for reddit for years, so I switched Boost for Lemmy as soon as it became available. It’s not free, iirc it was $3 or $4, but it works well and I’ve had zero issues with it.
That’s more of a Mlmym problem than a Lemmy problem. Every frontend tends to handle images a little differently.
I don’t see an open issue for that problem, yet, though, so might be worth putting one in for the developer to work on.
