    Could we maybe have fewer of these stickied posts on here? Scrolling past 4 of these gigantic posts every time just to see what’s actually newly posted on here is kinda tiresome. Maybe have a time limit on how long they are stickied at least?

    I don’t know for sure, but my guess is people who use this forum are passionate about Perchance on a deeper level and want to stay up-to-date, so probably check here fairly often. So just posting normally should be noticed by most people anyway. Or stickying for just a day or two should let most people find that post. And only if it’s some larger change maybe?

    You’re in charge of course. Just putting it out there.

    (Also if there’s some way of making Lemmy not make link posts HUUUUUUUUGE that’d be great.)

      Yep, fair point. Done. I didn’t sticky this btw - I’m not sure if I’ve ever stickied a post on here.

        Oh interesting. Maybe they use a different term, or auto-sticky anything from a particular user, or something. Weird…

    Cool cool… I guess this could be built in to $meta as a property with a setter? 🤔

      You have unfortunately been misinformed on this matter. From the perspective of web browsers, favicons are just images, and will never be executed as code. You might be thinking of web-application-specific exploits - e.g. related to vulnerable WordPress favicon plugins or something. This is not at all relevant to Perchance. Using this plugin is completely safe.

      That said, I appreciate the concern!
