Is there a way to know when a link is gonna be a video I can't watch or listen to right now?
Are you on desktop or mobile? Doesn't it provide the link?
I use Voyager app and I can see that's a video, it shows me the photo with the link under.
I'm on Lemmy connect and it shows only a little paperclip "link" icon. But no hint that it's gonna be a video, unless all paperclip links are links?
I did download the app you use, and after scrolling I noticed that videos do have image but not a link in the right side, while other websites have a link on the right side. Give it a go and see it's right.
I appreciate the personal Tech support but I don't understand "right side", I don't see anything there.
What do you use? Maybe I should just switch.
Ah, voyager. I'll check it out.
I use Jerboa and every link shows, at minimum, a partial url.
I meant in the right side of the media image/picture.
I personally generally much prefer text content, and get disappointed when I click and get a video or audio instead
Same. Not that I don't want them, just that I want to know before I click because a lot of the time I can't be watching or listening to something but could read it.
Exactly, reading is almost always more convenient and faster.
This is already low enough, but to do it when the country's already facing difficult times.... frak, ship 'em to mars or something.
