I was using memmy because it used the default option for voting breakdown to show up and downvotes separately.

I would like to see all apps add a toggle for those of us who want a granular breakdown on voting (the same suggestion has been made to memmy and will be made to any others I try which don’t have it, and I’m on android as well!), for our mental health or for whatever other reason (for me the total vote count up/down is a mental health feature, and why I’m drawn to the fediverse. I want to know my overall reach and how many agreed, disagreed, and, inadvertently, the vote to reply ratio (which tells you a lot about how strongly someone feels about their agreement or dissent). I don’t want that hidden behind an aggregate number when it exists there as data already that need to be suppressed.

I have downloaded and installed your app and have found it does not have this, so I would like to request it. It can be a toggle for those who want to know aggregate data, but it is my opinion that the default splitting of votes into up and down counts should be preserved as the default for apps as well, largely for the reasons above but also to give Lemmy a different feel from Reddit/other SM. We want this place to be different, and our UX choices matter in how that ends up working. If we want to maintain a more collaborative environment, the detailed counts do matter.

Either OP meant something similar for the main feed, or didn't look carefully enough (I suspect the second one). Though I feel like invoking mental health concerns for this kind of stuff seems a bit dramatic.

I agree it does seem a bit melodramatic, but we never know how he feels so i tried to be genuine and helpful.

Completely unrelated to the OP, but the Markdown image embed works with files.

So, to see if it'll work, check the link! If it ends in a .jpeg/png/webp and so on, it works. This is also true for videos, but with .webm/mp4.

If you use imgur, consider using links like i.imgur.com/..., because those are direct links to the file.

I.E.: imgur link of your image.

All love,

That makes sense. I just assumed imgur would give a .filename link.
It's fixed now.
