I’m mildly annoyed with clicking on a thumbnail only to be suddenly taken to a page I know/care nothing about.
Don’t know of such a filter. But did you know that that is the primary function of Lemmy? It is a link aggregator first and foremost. Everything else stems from that.
Sure, but much like Reddit, the primary use case is just reading the article title and commenting based off of that. /s
Fair enough. My main reason for joining was to scroll through memes and engage with fan communities I’m part of. I used to have a reddit account a long time ago, but I left, and recently tried to make an account again, only to discover what a clusterf*** things have become, which sent me running here after weird stuff started happening with my new account.
This might be your client app, maybe…? On Jerboa, tapping a post takes me to the lemmy comments first. Opening the link is a second deliberate tap.
Definitely this. There is a whole community dedicated to the various great Lemmy apps on different platforms, including the web. Try a couple and see if there is one that meets your needs better.
