Smartphone adoption tracks America's pedestrian death spike almost perfectly. The problem: every other country has smartphones too.

          I’m not sure what you mean. I don’t use voyager, and find it to be off putting that voyager would share a link in such a way that is essentially an ad for itself.

          I shared the direct link for the rest of us 🙂 it doesn’t seem that ! is needed anymore.

            They are telling Voyager users how to modify that setting. We have options, but apparently the default is a Voyager specific link.

              Interesting choice by Voyager. But it is nice that there are apps available for fediverse users who want them!

                While Voyager is a nice app, that’s offputting for me as well. Just changed it! Glad I didn’t share a link yet.

                  It’s a bug, should always unwrap on paste into a comment or post. Already fixed :)

                    Ah I see, thank you! Are you Voyager’s dev? It’s a great app! When I began using Lemmy it was basically the only one that ticked all the boxes for me.
