- broken/removed/deleted Reddit/Tumblr/Twitter images/videos and then
- Lemmy instances removing all their user-uploaded content last year because someone uploaded trigger-warning content and then
- seeing my animated GIFs and high-resolution PNGs turn into pixelated, static, medium-size WEBPs after uploading them to Lemmy?
It made me fucking crazy.
Also, my name is lars and I’m a digital hoarder. I’m open to suggestions.
40 1 ReplyYeah I hate how Lemmy fucks up gifs, mine just converts them to jpgs lol.
I like how it became a hoarders anonymous meeting at the end.
