This response to my attempt to reply is quite annoying:

You are only browsing one thread in the discussion! All comments are available on the post page.

Wherever that code is throws that rediculous error message, please remove it and just let us post. If a text box is unsuitable for a reply then please don’t give me the text box in the first place. Makes no sense.

I only have this problem if I take forever to type out a reply, like it's timing out or something. Trying again usually works just fine.

@gk99 yeah i’ve always been able to go back and resend. Nontheless it’s still a bug that needs to be fixed. I can imagine how confusing & off-putting that error msg must be for novice users.

Kbin for some reason likes to point out that anything off-instance is unreliable.

I mean you know the reason why. Just like apps built by mega corporations each Lemmy instance wants to keep you on their instance.

Lemmy doesn't seem to have this baked in like Kbin does. I would have liked Lemmy admins to work together to cut down the duplication, but there is some ego there. Short of spam / troll attacks, they don't seem to be cutting each other off. Once someone sets up the connection, off instance communities behave just like on-instance ones.
