Is there a way to know when a link is gonna be a video I can't watch or listen to right now?

[–] isVeryLoud 3 points 3 days ago (1 children)

I personally generally much prefer text content, and get disappointed when I click and get a video or audio instead

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Same. Not that I don't want them, just that I want to know before I click because a lot of the time I can't be watching or listening to something but could read it.

[–] isVeryLoud 2 points 3 days ago

Exactly, reading is almost always more convenient and faster.

Are you on desktop or mobile? Doesn't it provide the link?

I use Voyager app and I can see that's a video, it shows me the photo with the link under.

I'm on Lemmy connect and it shows only a little paperclip "link" icon. But no hint that it's gonna be a video, unless all paperclip links are links?

[–] roserose56 2 points 4 days ago (1 children)

I did download the app you use, and after scrolling I noticed that videos do have image but not a link in the right side, while other websites have a link on the right side. Give it a go and see it's right.

I appreciate the personal Tech support but I don't understand "right side", I don't see anything there.

What do you use? Maybe I should just switch.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Ah, voyager. I'll check it out.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 days ago

I use Jerboa and every link shows, at minimum, a partial url.

[–] roserose56 1 points 3 days ago

I meant in the right side of the media image/picture.
