      Surprised Pikachu is timeless

        Im so impressed how permeative “Suprised Pikachu” has been in the general culture

      If we’re having thonk, we need angery.

        Oh cool we can do the colon-command (just like in Whatsapp)!

        I was copy-pasting emojis from Whatsapp until now! 😂

            First I thought I needed to re-register (the email repsonse was vague 😅).

            Then I noticed that login was enough!

      We actually made Lemmy World Silver a few months ago.

        That looks like it took more effort than the other one, which is antithetical to the intent of reddit Lemmy Silver

      That’s a chungus silver not gonna lie

      I hope I got the stroke weight right.

    I love me some gull scream. It’s basically how I feel every day.

    Ahem. I am not a fan of encouraging people to post giant low-content images in Lemmy threads. It is really nice to have a mostly textual medium, and inserting huge Pikachus or Picards or Frys into it is not an improvement to this user experience. Many of the images in this thread appear at around ⅓ of screen height in the default browser UI, and they have very little new to say.

    If this sort of feature has to exist, please consider limiting it to rather small images, more in the “icon” range than the “memegens” range.

      I just assumed these would be, you know, emoji-sized emojis.

      • @fubo
        10•1 year ago

        I’m just going by what shows up in the thread here.

        • kamenLady.

          Good practice would be to globally limit the max-width of an emoji to something like 100px anyway. When clicked, the full image opens.

          These are embedded images they are larger.

        I think hexbear emojis are small on their instance but they are gigantic on every other instance. That might be the case here too. As a non world member I don’t wish to see giant images.

    • @mindgoblin7
      12•1 year ago

      oh, i guess i just figured they would just be emoji sized

      Thank you. Glad I’m not the only person who hates seeing what is meant as a reddit alternative turn into Discord.

      Image and gif comments tend to get inordinate amounts of upvotes too and push actual quality comments down.

    • @applejacks

      agree, if they implement this, I will just set a ublock rule so I never have to see it.
