I replied to this via the connect app but it has disappeared, it seems, so second attempt;
Thanks for letting me know you’d use the logo, I appreciate that.
I understand your motivation not to use it now. However, I was inspired by the line “Welcome to the Minecraft community on Lemmy and Kbin” in the sidebar
They all seem to have the same url & thumbnail_url, except for #9, which has a thumbnail on lemmy.world. Makes me wonder why that one does and all the others don’t
Judging by the time it takes to download the pictures (after clearing the app cache) I’d say the full pictures are indeed downloaded
Oh, misunderstood you there, my bad. Hope you can figure it out. Could you check for me if another kbin instance, on another channel with images, does give you two urls though? I’m curious if it’s supposed to be like this (2x same url)
kick me in the balls and call me Shirley
Surely!
This is interesting now that I’m thinking about it. if you get the same from another instance, are the thumbnail and regular url different? The fact that the viewer is disabled my side should not influence the actual uris presented to the outside world, I’d think.
It is a kbin server, and you’re speaking to the admin🙂. (Replying to @over_clox@lemmy.world as well). Both jpgs are the full size images, not thumbnails. There is no imageviewer, I’ve disabled it because it had trouble displaying on Iphones and zooming issues on other mobiles. So, when you call the url, you get the raw 33MB jpg. So I’d think it should be possible to display it as is?
Yes, it’s opening thumbnails instead of the actual images. The actual images are >20mb in size and very high detail (and take much longer to load)
You are opening the actual kbin instance it seems, not browsing it through the app
That makes sense. But why not have that embedded browser open the full size image instead of the thumbnail?:
I am opening it in the Jerboa app, the browser is opening what it’s being told to open, I assume? That’s not the full size images. On kbin you can get both the thumbnail and the full size images, look at the connect app, it shoes the full size images (and then crashes due to running out of memory)
I’d love to try it
Hi, something you might want to check before releasing; several current Lemmy apps are having trouble displaying lists of very large images. Either they try to load them all in one go, instead of going for the thumbnail as a preview (causing the app to crash), or they only get the preview and then don’t show the full size when opening.
