    The contents of the article must be consumed in order to discuss them intelligently, to create an informed opinion, and to pose questions that have positive worth within the conversation that ensues from its having been read and ruminated upon?

    Preposterous notion.

  • Is there a way to browse other instances the same way as if I visited them via the browser?
  • jago jago Now 100%

    If you're registered at those other instances, you can create another profile(s) in Jerboa that connects to them, and then using that profile, browse by Local, I suppose.

    I'm registered at both lemmy.cafe and lemmy.ca, and have profiles for both registrations in Jerboa.

    Otherwise, if you're registered only with Beehaw, I believe the answer is, "no, not in Jerboa, just with your device's normal web browser."

    Do you plan to clip the blacks for more contrast?

    Additionally, after saving your preferred settings, I found it necessary to close and relaunch Jerboa to see the change. Simply refreshing the home page doesn't apply it.

  • Request: please create a beta testing option in the play store so that we can get updates instantly on there
  • jago jago Now 100%

    How are updates normally pushed, when the Google Play store was the initial point of installation?

    I ask because I installed on Jerboa May 25 from the Play store, before the the 0.0.34 update. 7 days ago (Jun 14) that update was automatically installed without my knowledge, or any notice.

    I'm happy with the automatic update, I wouldn't have known of it otherwise (although a notification would've been appreciated, unless I simply missed seeing it), so I'm just wondering if there's a setting I've got different from you, if you're not getting auto-updated?

  • Pasting text via long press/context menu doesn't work in most (or even all?) text fields in Jerboa. Problem just for me or everybody?
  • jago jago Now 100%

    I also experience this problem.

    I can cut or copy without trouble, but long-pressing on the cursor to paste in the clipboard's text is flakey: only rarely does it open the Paste pop-up, and even when it does, moving my finger to select Paste instead moves the cursor, highlighting a block of nearby text.

    As a workaround, I can type a short placeholder word, (and, but, the, too... something that is easy to long-press on). Once that word is highlighted, the Paste option is present in the pop-up.

  • how you can do a line return ?
  • jago jago Now 100%

    End your line with 2 spaces, then Enter.
    This results in a line return instead of an ignored Return.

  • jago jago Now 100%

    That's right.

    I was just composing a top-level reply for @Flax_vert, but since your corrected answer is more concise, I'll piggyback here to add:

    • Remember to Save Settings at the bottom of the settings screen

    AND

    • I had to close and relaunch Jerboa for the saved Listing and Sort changes to take effect. Simply refreshing the home page didn't do it.

    This is the Jerboa community. Your answer is incorrect, as it refers to the web browser UI, it does not apply to the Jerboa UI.

    TIL that a 28 year old Russian man went to the doctor for coughing up blood and having chest pains. The doctors diagnosed it as cancer, but it turned out to be a fir tree growing inside his lungs.
  • jago jago Now 100%

    Article ends with:

    There was no independent verification of the surgeon's claims.

    The internet tells me that "plant growth requirements" are air, water, nutrients, space, and light.

    Let's imagine. The growing plant was found in a lung. It must have:

    Air. Plants ingest carbon dioxide, exude oxygen. Both gasses are present in our own respiration. So that checks out.

    Water. I guess water was leeched from the lungs' blood supply, since we're all just bags of mostly water.

    Nutrients. See water, above. If the mamallian reproduction system can supply a growing embryo with required nutrients, why not those required by a fir sapling? Sure, they're different requirements, but press on.

    Space. Assuming that no other competing species of plant is growing in the lung, this isn't a problematic issue.

    Light. Ah, well. Photosynthesis requires sunlight, and I am reminded of a joke attributed to Groucho Marx, Abraham Lincoln, Nicola Tesla, and Albert Einstein:

    Outside of a dog, a book is a man’s best friend. Inside of a dog, it’s too dark to read, or to cultivate horticulture.

    I am as dubious of this fir sapling story as my quoted joke's provenance.

  • Enhancment request: Long-press hyperlink text to reveal destination URI

  • On mobile I use(d) Relay for Reddit browsing. The app has a feature that I miss in Jerboa. In posts/comments, [hyperlinked text can be long-pressed to reveal the destination](hi there i am a URI to any other website) in a pop-up overlayed on the link (sorry, I don’t know the proper term for this UI tool) without actually opening to the link. Upon tapping off the pop-up, it closes and I tap on the URI to follow through to it, or not, as I wish. In Jerboa, pressing a hyperlink only opens it, site unseen (pun intended). This change would be useful because sometimes I don't want to open the linked page, given the target (e.g. youtube, instagram). In Jerboa I see no way of discovering the URI of a hyperlink without following to it, which would be convenient to avoid.

    This morning when I picked up my phone, the Jerboa icon on my phone's homepage had a transparent background, as it had when first installed a week-or-so ago. Sometime, mid-day today, I saw the icon had a solid white background. Did this change as a result of an update, or maybe my (admittedly old) phone just catching up to 2023? I must admit, I kinda liked the transparent-background version.
