So, like how it works on other sites, when using the inline media viewer, it will mark the post as read. That way the link changes color and I know that I’ve viewed it. Is this how it works on the fediverse? I’ve made a couple of posts about it and posted to the git and I might get one or two people that say “That’s weird” or whatever. However, no one has ever said which way it’s supposed to work. Both Kbin and Lemmy work this way for me.

So, am I taking crazy pills and it shouldn’t be doing that, or am I experiencing a cross platform, cross browser bug?

    Well, I think I may be in a minority here in that I don’t use the cards view. I used old.reddit the whole time that was a thing as I browse from a PC. So I click the inline media viewer for everything I look at.

    Looking at that frontend you linked, (which seems to be the feed for voyager?) no links changed color on there either.

        It doesn’t do anything until I click into the post.

        EDIT:

        Ok, so after fucking with the settings to get it to a standard thumbnail and post title, it does grey out when I click the thumbnail.

        So both lemmy and kbin should be behaving this way, yes?

          I mean, the only thing we have established so far is that that specific front-end behaves in that way. I’m not sure about the usual lemmy interface, and kbin neither
