Are you using the PWA, self hosted or via code spaces/other VPS? With which web browser?
I tried hosting code server via termux for a while, but a user proot felt too slow, even if the PWA UI ran silky smooth.
Perhaps when my warranty runs out I'll root the device to switch to using a proper chroot instead.
Do you use it combined with terminal emulators?
Wouldn't that result in vertical scroll snapping to textual lines, and horizontal scroll snapping to character widths?
A personal preference I suppose for navigation, but a bit jumpy to read from while moving rapidly.
Only just got a 120Hz monitor recently, so reading scrolling text now is so much easer and faster than before. Looking forward to any IDE that can match that kind of framerate performance as well.
Too bad I don't own a mac to be able to test out the current release of Zed as an IDE. However, I'm not sure about the growing trend of rasterizing the entire GUI, as compared to conventional text rendering methods or GUI libs with established accessibility support.
Guess the author's click bait'y title was too much. I'll withdraw their video then.
Another issue is whether the post from a remote instance is colocated on your local instance. It could be the case that your instance never observed the post, as no users on your local instance where first subscribed, to the remote community the post was summited to, before the post was published.

Hear, hear!
I'd prefer to keep all lang communities on topic. E.g. I occasionally block and unblock !c/programmer_humor when I want to read technical news or just have a laugh. If memes crossed into all local subs, then the noise-to-news ratio couldn't be customized as easily.
Although I suppose tagging posts would be a better compromise.
Does Lemmy support tagging posts, or filtering feeds by tag yet?
It goes by: the Book. It must be capitalized. /s
You can change the color theme from the setting page under the top right drop-down. But it would be nice to have something like Reddit Extension Suite for the default Lemmy UI front end for custom defined CSS.
I think once we get a few more third party clients to explore alternative UIs, folks should have more options for personal preference.
One thing I like about the current web UI already is the low noise in embedded text in the discussion threads. E.g. when I engage my screen reader, all I have to listen to when moving between comments is the post author and post date. Just enough context to understand the TTS engine moving between comments, unlike the old.reddit.com UI that include 5 or 6 different hyperlinked words (parent, context, permalink, etc) that the TTS has two repeat over and over again.
The hover text for icon links should be enough UI context for screen readers, although not all icon links on the current Lemmy UI seem to include hover text meta data, like the permalink chain icon 🔗, while the collapse minimize icon does.

I was more curious about horizontal/vertical scroll snapping of text, given if the underlying vim properties are still limited to terminal style rendering of whole fractions of text lines and fixed characters, then it's less of a concern what exactly the GUI front end is.
