I’m using Jerboa and I sometimes see symbols next to peoples’ username. One looks like a “no message” symbol, and the other looks like a “no person” symbol in red. What do they mean? Are there more symbols?

I’ve tried a web search but I only found results related to Motorhead and some kind of desert rodent.

Also, is it possible to search the content of posts on Lemmy? At least in Jerboa the search function seems to be only to search for communities by name. Surely someone has asked this before but I couldn’t figure out how to search posts.

Thanks!

Edit: added an example of the “no person” icon

      That’s a robot head icon, right? It would be nice to see a list of all the icons and their meaning.

        If you hover the mouse pointer above such an icon (don’t click it), it usually displays what it stands for. For example, when you hover aove the [OP] next to your username here, a little indicator saying “creator” will pop up.

            Yeah… I’m a total caveman when it comes to modern technology, lol ^^° that’s probably not an option in an app.
