      I like the idea of this bot but could you make the text a bit smaller? It’s pretty obnoxious ATM.

        This is what I see:

        Maybe the summary tags aren’t working on your app? But I guess the “Thanks to…” section could be moved to the footer, too.

          It is particularly obnoxious on Sync for Lemmy…

              Mlem dev here. It shows strikethrough, but not superscript. Lemmy has got a unique dialect of Markdown - in the current version we’re using an open-source Github-dialect parser, which is close to Lemmy’s dialect but not perfect. In the next update we’ve written a custom parser that handles all of Lemmy’s Markdown elements, including superscript and spoilers.

          Most app clients don’t fully support formatting yet. I’m on Boost and neither spoilers nor superscript work.

          I don’t know the numbers on each app vs web clients, but I suspect apps are a significant portion. Ignoring their limitations is ignoring a good portion of your users.

        Twice, actually. First that of Anthony Wiener and then that of Hunter Biden.

        For a party of homophobes who claim to hate liberals, they sure seem to be hungry for some liberal cock 😂

    Well, we do live in the age of AI generated deepfake videos, don’t we? We could feed Jesse Watters’ unnatural curiosity, couldn’t we?

    No wonder JD wants to make porn illegal. I’m almost with him if it means me not getting Rickrolled with a gif of him fucking a loveseat

      “It’s not a loveseat, okay?! It’s a couch! I don’t fuck loveseats!” - Vance, probably?

        “It’s called making love when it’s a loveseat! It’s in the name!!! Also, ban porn NOW!”

        – From The book “Hillbilly Elegy: A Memoir Of a Family and Culture in Crisis” by author JD Vance

    I’ve had it up to here with people saying JD Vance had sex with a couch. How many times do I have to say there’s no evidence JD Vance had sex with a couch before people stop saying JD Vance had sex with a couch? Liberals must be pretty desperate to make up that JD Vance had sex with a couch. The story that on March 17, 2011 JD Vance was banned from a Cleveland area IKEA after so thoroughly deflowering a KIVIK Sofa Chaise that it had to be removed as a biohazard due to the various fluids in and around it, causing the night manager to not only quit but need intensive therapy is beyond the pale. Who would believe this? There is sworn. court. testimony. that JD Vance has not made bare skin contact with a couch within the past 5 years. That’s a fact. Look it up. The idea that this is because JD Vance cannot contain his overwhelming sexual urges in the presence of soft furniture is reckless conjecture. Calling JD Vance a couchfucker is slander and you need to take it back.

    The Left™ will do anything to avoid talking about the real issues in this campaign, like the fact that Kamala Harris laughs sometimes.

      Harris also has the skull shape of a Marxist! And the fact that she’s a girl will make all the other manly nations call us Sissies!

      It’s funny you say that. However it’s a Fox News person that’s asking for this.

        They’re too stupid to know that proving something like fucking a couch didn’t happen is impossible. They think that lack of video evidence will prove it, but they’re just jagwagons.

      This is extremely simplistic and reductive, but essentially, after JD Vance was named Trump’s VP, someone made a shit post saying ‘Wow, I can’t believe he said he had sex with a couch, that’s wild’. To their slight credit, the same person commented like an hour later admiting it was all a lie (they just posted the Arthur meme of “You think someone would do that? Go on the internet and tell lies?”), but that didn’t really matter and it got shared around a lot, mostly by people who knew it was fake news but still thought it was funny anyway.

      Later that week, AP News did a fact check on it (because, sadly, they have to do A LOT of false-fact debunking) and they essentially said “JD Vance did not have sex with a couch”. HOWEVER, they have an internal policy that says their fact-checks must say only the truth, even if they have to be extremely specific in their wording. Since they originally said “No, he has never had sex with a couch” but, technically speaking, unless they’ve been spying on him for his entire life, there’s no way to actually PROVE that, so they had to take it down. Lots of people saw it get taken down and jumped on that fact as a ‘Well, then he must have done it, obviously’ and the memes continued.

      Fast forward to today, and some FOX host who probably still uses Yahoo as their search engine and has no connection with meme culture is demanding the video proof that they presume to exist despite no one EVER saying that there’s proof.

      Hope that answered most of your questions

      Edit: slightly wording fix

        My favorite part was that Vance, supposedly, wrote about it in Hillbilly Elegy. Reading the book would easily solve the issue once and for all, but no one wanted to.

        It’s also why the AP article was retracted. They could obviously prove that it’s not in the book, but like you said, it would be impossible to prove that he never, at any point in his life, when no one was around, fucked a couch.

        …but also, the AP article didn’t even involve reading the book. They just used Ctrl+F on key terms because, again, no one wants to actually read that book.

        Is yahoo search even a thing still? I used it like a week ago and it said powered by Bing. I wouldn’t be surprised if they took down their search engine and just use a version of Bing instead of an amalgamation.

        I didn’t even know it was a story until I read about the retraction. Like, “What do you mean they retracted their story saying he didn’t tuck a couch…? Does that mean…?”
