If a comment has text that’s recognized as a URL, the system auto-generates a link preview for it. As the link preview of the updated comment doesn’t replace existing ones, it’s possible to repeatedly duplicate link previews via successive edits to the same comment. The view returns to normal once the page is reloaded.
The GIF below demonstrates the bug:
Whoops, that’s not supposed to happen. It’s a super simple fix, I’ll have this patched really quick.
Sorry I’ve been absent the last week, I’ve been busy and haven’t had much time to work on Arctic. I appreciate all the feedback and reports!
Thanks again for your dedication! 👍
Also, while I was going to make a separate post about what the comment in the example GIF discussed, might be just as worth asking here.
While most unblockable communities were removed from the Lemmy Explorer list when blocked instance filtering was added, a few from unblocked instances remained on the list. After inquiring at !div0@lemmy.dbzer0.com, it seems that these few communities are blocked at the instance level. Is there any means by which communities blocked by a user’s home instance could be detected and filtered out of the Lemmy Explorer list?
