Bonus question: How do you collapse comments? Some threads are busy and hard to navigate without this.
I found a better experience was to turn off thumbnails and turn on “Auto media preview”
As a two week user, this is my experience. There is also no way to collapse comments… Yet. Someone has wonderfully coded it and shared with the devs but it has yet to be pushed to the main branch yet.
With the huge influx of users this past month they are in triage mode. Just please be patient with the product, Reddit was new at one point too!
I recommend these scripts for a much better experience:

https://kbin.social/m/kbinStyles/t/105421/Kbin-Usability-Pack-0-2-2-Now-with-settingsThis is great, but I hope the improvements are brought into the main app, because userscripts cannot be easily used with progressive web apps
I use kbin as a PWA from Fennec, scripts work fine in my experience.
Also there’s really a UX problem with images (which appears to be fixed at testing instances) but, for now, you can enable “Auto media preview” on settings, so you don’t need to click them.

you have to be logged in to see that icon. I learned that as I was going to ask “what icon?! I dont see anything”. I guess I was logged out, but when I logged in, the icon appeared.
Excellent, can’t believe I didn’t see that icon there!
I’ve been here a couple weeks now and did not know that, thank you!
How did you get the animated avatar? That’s pretty awesome.
Thanks! I just uploaded the gif as my avatar to see if it would work and it did 🙂
Awesome, I had no idea you could do that! Thank you!
This is good to know. This needs to be the thing that happens when you click the actual picture. We shouldn’t need to know this as a medium-advanced protip.
Though I know they’re still working their butts off just to keep the thing floating right now. Lots going on for a small team. One thing at a time!
Clicking thumbnails opened the image for me until they fixed the squished thumbnails issue so I’m thinking it’s a bug from that.
if you open the settings gear just under your name in the upper right, you can select auto media preview to yes and you will not need to click in a thread to see
And this is how you accidentally pop a titty on your timeline at the office.
