"...is not supported in this browser", fuck you Discord

There's really no reason to be mad at them in this particular instance. Their client is Chromium-based (Electron) so they will optimize their new features for that engine first. There's probably less than 5% users who Discord from browser, let alone Firefox, and I think I'm being generous with that number. Additionally, some things are harder to implement (or even impossible) in native web rather than Electron, that has all the NodeJS integrations.

I haven't used soundboard yet, but I'm pretty sure it isn't "just" an HTML5 file upload. Perhaps it's as you said, they run checks on the file being uploaded. Maybe it will work, maybe it will crash in some use cases because they don't have a polyfill for some specific API they use. So instead of dealing with user complaints about crashes they just disabled the feature.
I'm also not sure why you're upset with Discord for implementing DRM for uploaded files. If they don't, they will get sued by the companies enforcing that DRM, so hate on those companies instead.

You guys aren't joking and really guessing if this is AI-generated? This is THE most popular format of images on Sora, there's an exact photo like that for literally every movie, show and video game out there.

Asking nicely and tolerance aren't the only other options or even necessarily the opposite of violence. Sometimes, it's just a necessary measure and last resort. Beating people rarely changes their mind, other methods must be used, like reasoning and education (preferably even before the person has gone fascist). Obviously, the reasoning isn't gonna work with everybody, in which cases you do whatever must be done to ensure safety.

Think of fascism as if it's a zombie pandemic. Once it's in progress, you save those that you can and liquidate those that are too far gone. But the real method against a zombie pandemic is to have preventative measures in place, like not letting Umbrella Corp. develop the virus in the first place.

How to directly open a post from another instance on Lemmy.world?

Reply in thread

This is not exactly what I'm looking for, but it was helpful, thanks!

That extension is for jumping to a community, not directly to a post. While this helps a little, you'd still need to find the post manually within the community.
Furthermore, there's actually a point about this in the README:

Why can't I jump to the same post on my home instance?

When you view the same post on different instances, the links may look like this: https://lemmy.ca/post/634937 vs. https://lemmy.world/post/79489. Currently, there doesn't seem to be a way to determine what the post's URL will be on your home instance. Due to this, there is no way to link to the post on your home instance.

So it looks like this is an unsolvable (and a serious, in my opinion) problem with Lemmy at the moment.
Solved using the userscript that @[email protected] further in the thread suggested.
