They could try to say that but I doubt people would believe it.

Who throws away their own code particularly when it’s not junky commercial code but code their heart and soul was behind on a non-profit project? I keep my old code around if anything just to be able to search it to re-teach myself coding and design tips I forgot about. This code backs their research which they may need to refer to when a prospective employer asks for detail on how they executed the study.

ah, I’ve seen that before… i recall the violence measurements. Glad to have a copy of that.

Maybe the acknowledgments gives a hint?

Goggles works for me.

The create post form is dysfunctional. After entering a title I tab to the next field and the title is erased upon shifting the focus to another field. The form is unfillable.

The timeline has 4 possible timeline views: subscribed, local, all, moderator view. That selector is broken in Ungoogled Chromium. In UC, I click “moderator view” and the button highlights as I click it, the page refreshes, but the selector does not stick. It is trapped in the “local” view and only shows the local timeline.

I did not test Mander specifically on these, but it seems to be the same problem for all stock front ends newer than 0.19.3.

WD-40 sounds like an interesting idea. Most people think of it as an oil, but in fact WD-40 is a cocktail of many different solvents, plus mineral oil, IIUC. It’s indeed more of a cleaning product than a lube.

One problem with all Lemmy instances running later version than 0.19.3 is the front-ends are broken with Ungoogled Chromium. Lemmy instances running 0.19.5 essentially force me to use Tor Browser (firefox). This is unrelated to the onion problem but one of my other workarounds is to use a non-stock front-end with ungoogled chromium. So for example slrpnk.net has alexandrite.slrpnk.net, which is an alternative FE. The landing page of slrpnk.net lists a few other alternative front ends as well.

I don’t know if there is a way for users to run alexandrite and then specify another backend of choice. But if not, it could be useful to make other front-ends available on the onion.
