Ah, good shout, thanks I’ll do that 👍

Although some would argue there’s a lot of foreshadowing.

Maybe, although it’s multiple people, so seems like it wouldn’t be a camera fault.

Possibly it’s how they are getting to me - I don’t get them directly, they come to via someone else, and I think the someone else may be getting them via WhatsApp (which I don’t use).

So in fact it’s maybe the compression from WA, rather than an issue with HEIC? I should have thought of that before!

Maybe they’re doing something else to their files then, but seriously they are grainy as hell.

Ah, that’s a shame. Thanks anyway though :-)

Yeah I hate this too - one of my clients regularly supplies images as HEIC files and they are always crappy to work with. Plus the images just seem much lower quality, which is a problem when they are being used for professional purposes.

I considered that, but it’s a paid app - yes it’s only a token amount (99p in UK, ymmv) but just as a point of principal, am I fuck paying extra just to be able to open some photos.

No problem!

There’s one at !askmeanything@lemmy.ca :-)

I don’t know if this is helpful or not, but you can do this on Sync for Lemmy. As a test, I just added you as a favourite and now you appear in my Favs list alongside my chosen top communities.

However I don’t know if there’s any way to create a feed consisting of all favourited people’s posts, which would be more useful IMO than having to check each individual favourited person. Will have a go and see if I can find a way.

EDIT: Couldn’t see a way to do it unfortunately, but have started a thread on the Sync community to see if anyone knows how.

This looks REALLY interesting, thanks for sharing!

Ha, I bet :-)

I thought the strip across the bottom was called a chyron? Not heard it referred to as a bug before (not saying you’re wrong though).

I always sort by New, but I also only use Subscribed, rather than All. So it’s an up to date list of topics in my curated interest areas.

Alright, alright, alright, alright…

Ah, fair point!

Thanks, yeah, I actually started doing that, but having those sites open as tabs in browser windows just wasn’t working for me. That, and the favicons just being the FF logo instead of the logo for each “app”. I might have another go, but I’ve been busy with work and have just taken the path of least resistance so far.

That’s interesting about FF and PWAs, I didn’t know that it used to do something like that. I guess Google aren’t the only ones who kill useful stuff! 😁

Thanks. My main issue is the lack of progressive web app ability in Firefox. I have my Outlook, Gmail, Keep, Calendar, Netflix and other sites set up that way, but can’t do it with FF.

I did hear that they might be working on adding it though, which would be great.

That’s a good point, actually. I hadn’t thought it through enough.

To be fair to those people (which I’m really not inclined to be), I’m pro-choice but strongly against the death penalty. So I guess it swings both ways.
