Doesn't 0.19.5 fix those issues? https://join-lemmy.org/news/2024-06-19_-_Lemmy_Release_v0.19.5_-_A_Few_Bugfixes

- 0.19.5 only fixes one of the 4 bugs (cross-posting). None of them seem to be mentioned in the change notes.

  Ungoogled Chromium and Tor Browser are perhaps less popular than they should be.
  
  Did you report the bugs on the Lemmy github?
  Most people are indeed probably using Firefox, which doesn't have the bugs are you mentioned in your posts
