don't like em rule

i don like them links. like - tell me what’s in the link, don’t just “rule” and put a link.

i believe that this is not a very lemmy thing to do. especially on mobile, where it leaves the app and opens some shiddy proprietary other social media platform in your browser.

EDIT: completely forgot to add picture. now it's here!

    Some apps like boost don't show what the web version shows.

    I didn't even realize this was a issue until you corrected the commenter.

    • They don't show display names iirc.

    • what exactly are u refering to? u mean my username or the dropdown thingy?

      i never used boost cuz proprietary software, but i kinda wanna know how these clients handle the posts stuffs.

      • Both, display names don't show on the android clients I've tried so far.

        The drop-down menu shows on Voyager but not others I've tried.

        • what do you mean by display names? i'm only aware of the one display name which i see on the web-client and on Jerboa, my lemmi app.

          does boost only show the initial, unedited username you have set? that seems kinda not so cool... imma be honest... ;(

          when i change ma name, i want peeps to see it! and not see some old deadname! yesyes, if how i describe it is the case, thats very not cool.. ~
