What are you taking Lemsip for?

That is the first ever soccer game I've watched all the way through. I need a cigarette.

I think some of it can be solved by updates to the Lemmy software itself. I've seen the issue with image rotation and my assumption is that Lemmy is ignoring the orientation EXIF data. Also allowing the upload of GIFs, or fixing it so the image picker doesn't show them.

Then there are the laborious to users and communities when using desktop site which definitely needs a bit of streamlining. Sync for Lemmy lets you use the @ symbol to mention others, for example.

If a loud bang occurs in the suburbs, and there's no r/melbourne to ask what the noise was, did it really make a sound?

r/melbourne banned from reddit 36 minutes ago.

Ban messageA ban message displayed when viewing r/melbourne. It says the subreddit was banned 36 minutes ago for violating the reddit rules.

Possibly for being unmoderated?

Edit: This is a double up, see @halibutherring@aussie.zone's post.

How to get a GIF to show on Lemmy (and Sync for Lemmy)

  1. Add the following code to your comment where you want the GIF to go: ![]()
  2. Find the GIF you want to add to your comment on GIPHY*
  3. On the page for that GIF click the "↗️ Share" button
  4. On the overlay that shows up over the image, click "🔗 Copy GIF link"
  5. Return to your comment and paste the link between the round brackets:
    ![](https://media.giphy.com/media/LOTSOFLETTERS/giphy.gif)
  6. Be a good citizen and add descriptive text in the square brackets:
    ![Cat nodding its head to music](https://media.giphy.com/media/LOTSOFLETTERS/giphy.gif)
  7. Voilà (with added spoiler tag):

Animated GIF

Cat nodding its head to music

*You could also find the GIF somewhere else if you want. The URL needs to end in .gif

(Consider adding the GIF to spoiler tags if it's very large on screen. Do not upload the image to Lemmy, doesn't seem to work.)

Just copy my homework, use a direct link to the file on another website:

The upload button doesn't work for GIFs, I think.

I'm with you. The potential is there for something really beautiful. Though my opinion might change if the structure is as dire as it possibly could be.
