It's a picture. At least on thunder, connect and liftoff. And probably other lemmy clients too

If the internet has taught me something. Take everything as a literal and never check the unknown especially when people tell you not to. You may just find something much worse than the last worse stuff.

Lemmy should have the option to spoiler/NSFW pics in comments.

It had been a while since i last remembered it, but i knew the reason was stupid. So, I had written reasons in italic. But, I guess that was up for open interpretation and that included questionable stuff.

You can create a feature request on their github. Maybe, the dev considers it one day

Play Store has strict rules for apps with user generated content. You have to provide ways to block and report users/content to stay on the play store. Glider didn't provide a way to automatically report things by the user as hacker news doesn't provide one. So, google suspended it. Here's the github issue if you are interested: https://github.com/Mosc/Glider/issues/83

Yeah you should. It installs fine on my android 13 device with same amount of ram. I think must be some black listing issue.

I kept on seeing that so frequently it became annoying. Later, I discovered it stopped when I started to use cloudflare dns with their playstore app. So, I think it must be rate limiting from lemmy.ml itself or some weird dns issue from my service provider.

If you are using hacker news on mobile. I would recommend Glider. It's a smooth hacker news client. Unfortunately, the dev had his app removed from the play store for reasons but you can access it from its github or fdroid.

It's a site issue. I have the same issues when browsing the site from hermit lite apps.

Native apps are apps written in the native language of the platform of choice. It would be Java for Android and swift for IOS. Native apps can request lower level access to your system than a webapp.

Now, a webapp is a basically a website which can run like a native app with similar features and is full screen unlike a website. The language is javascript for the front-end and the backend(server) handles some communication. So, webapps can behave and act like native apps but they are not native and won't have the same lower level access to your system. Think access to storage, accessibility services, settings, etc. Webapps can also be slower compared to native apps which is prominent in non-flagship smartphones.
