Fuck ada tbh, has done fuck all to protect trans people and has done a fuckton to protect the kind of people that say this shit. There's even more shit in the thread here: https://lemmy.ml/post/22194896

its a fucking shitshow dear god i dont know how marcie survives the sea of morons

its very strange to see trans servers and sites that are so pathetic at actually defending trans people and educating the cis people around them. Trans spaces are for trans people, and while cis people are allowed, any weird shit from them should get them an immediate ban. Several of the shit talkers are just cis randos giving their hateful opinion.

thank god for people like Kristina and TC_69 to have a competent defense of trans people.

    The emote previews take so long to load for me. I only ever use the kelly one for puns mostly, but it's not the first result for kelly

      These need some sort of caching mechanism. The UI is ass too because you can't see what is loaded/not-loaded, and everything shifts as it loads.

        It's intentional. By forcing people to memorize a bunch of obscure emoji tags we're rewiring their brains into an understanding of the immortal science of Marxism-Leninism

        This is called materialism

          True, but this should probably be tackled upstream.

          Like adding (some subset of) emoji using the cache storage API in the lemmy-ui project.

          Idk if thumbnails are ever generated for the images either or just served raw from pict-rs, but IMO lemmy should be downscaling emojis to common resolutions for use in the UI, so users aren't loading 400 thicc ass image files just to open the picker. Would also decrease bandwidth usage on threads that have a bunch of emotes.
