I don’t know if this is just me or what, but sometimes I can upvote successfully on posts, but then again sometimes I get an error message stating: “This thread was retrieved via lemmy.world. You’re not logged in there.” When I open Connect for Lemmy, and go to the same post, I can upvote normally. Is this a bug or a feature?
This likely has to do with how your home tab feed is currently set. If it says “All” at the top, it’s showing posts from every single instance added in the app including default instances (if you haven’t deleted them: beehaw, lemmy.world, & lemmy.ml).Thus the post that you’re seeing, even if it exists on your instance as well, might not be the post from your instance, if that makes sense. I definitely found this behavior confusing myself at first and the devs are going to be talking about how this can be improved for new users. If you only use one instance and only ever want to see posts from one instance, feel free to long press your unused instances in the account setup page and remove them.
I did that and now any communities I had subscribed to that are outside of lemmy.world say I’m unsubscribed to them. Any workarounds?
