I enabled the option and after reopening the app GIFs play but only after I click them.
Click image, which zooms to occupy full screen, and GIF plays. Go back to thread by closing image and it stops again. \ So basically it plays when full screen but not inline.
Ah, oops!
Some distros do this already.
Alternative downloads
There are several other ways to get Ubuntu including torrents, which can potentially mean a quicker download, our network installer for older systems and special configurations and links to our regional mirrors for our older (and newer) releases.
BitTorrent is a peer-to-peer download network that sometimes enables higher download speeds and more reliable downloads of large files. You need a BitTorrent client on your computer to enable this download method.
My use case for this is that I only subscribe to communities related to tech to keep my core feed clean. Specially during short breaks during work hours I don’t want to open Jerboa and bump into other stuff. But I have other interests, like most people.
So it would be nice to have a feed of communities focused on politics even though I’m not subscribed to those communities. And another one focused on random interests like documentaries, books, etc (which I’m not subscribed to either).
I believe this should be part of the back end though, and not a frontend-only thing, in order to have sync between clients (like smartphone, tablet, PC). Having to redo lists in each frontend would be a pain when lists can have many dozens of entries. (During the dark ages of reddit I remember hitting the 100 limit at some point.)
I like being able to see upvotes and dowvotes separately as it is done now.
Arstechnica has them separately but also shows the sum which could be an option. For example, 90 (93 / -3) but with green and red color.
Having a show/hide sum in settings could help please more people but it’s extra work for developers.
This is subjective. I think it could be something like two check boxes in settings:
(I’m not complaining, works for me as is. Just trying for some constructive criticism.)
