What's the proper method for posting Lemmy bugs?
So, I know that everyone has been posting reports of the bug where one can be in edit mode for a reply when the screen refreshes and the content (and the edit) vanishes, which is a MAJOR bug IMO. I don't think that people will continue to use a site where their edits/posts just disappear at random. This hasn't happened to me yet, but I could understand the frustration that's associated with this type of bug.
Another bug that I've noticed is that, when submit a new post or, less often, when I post a reply, I get a spinning wheel. This wheel keeps spinning for minutes sometimes and, because I actually get REPLIES to the post, I can see that the post has gone through. However, I'm still seeing the spinning wheel on the browser tab where I'm making the post. From what I'm seeing, that post has gone through, even though I still have the spinning wheel during submission. This, is also a MAJOR bug and should be fixed as soon as possible, IMO.
So, the question is, what's the best method/route to report such a thing? I think that one really big advantage of using Lemmy (as opposed to Reddit) is probably the extent to which the developers work with end users in order to fix such bugs. However, we definitely need to be aware of the proper method for submitting these bugs. TIA!
Understandable. I've done my share of Python and full-stack stuff as well but my job keeps me so busy these days that, sometimes, the only way to contribute to these types of projects is monetarily. I just do what I can, and I hope it's enough. I (we) definitely appreciate your time spent on trying to contribute more and I hope to do so as well once I can retire and tell them all to go F$ck themselves! ;)
To be perfectly honest, there is a good chance I won't be able to get involved enough to poke around in the code-base too much.
But, Gonna keep an eye on the development staff for a bit, and if they seem pretty dedicated, and up to the task of developing the tool to replace reddit, I'll slip them a hundred bucks or so.
Well worth it IMO, this platform does have promise.
I agree. There are two major bugs and, if they can work past those two issues, I think the future is bright. Once it gets to that point, it becomes better than Reddit IMO...
