https://images.nasa.gov/details/hubble-observes-one-of-a-kind-star-nicknamed-nasty_17754652960_o

Astronomers using NASA’s Hubble Space Telescope have uncovered surprising new clues about a hefty, rapidly aging star whose behavior has never been seen before in our Milky Way galaxy. In fact, the star is so weird that astronomers have nicknamed it “Nasty 1,” a play on its catalog name of NaSt1. The star may represent a brief transitory stage in the evolution of extremely massive stars.

First discovered several decades ago, Nasty 1 was identified as a Wolf-Rayet star, a rapidly evolving star that is much more massive than our sun. The star loses its hydrogen-filled outer layers quickly, exposing its super-hot and extremely bright helium-burning core.

But Nasty 1 doesn’t look like a typical Wolf-Rayet star. The astronomers using Hubble had expected to see twin lobes of gas flowing from opposite sides of the star, perhaps similar to those emanating from the massive star Eta Carinae, which is a Wolf-Rayet candidate.

Instead, Hubble revealed a pancake-shaped disk of gas encircling the star. The vast disk is nearly 2 trillion miles wide, and may have formed from an unseen companion star that snacked on the outer envelope of the newly formed Wolf-Rayet. Based on current estimates, the nebula surrounding the stars is just a few thousand years old, and as close as 3,000 light-years from Earth.

The Share as Image functionality doesn’t work properly, when a post has an image or a video (thumbnail). It generates a blank image instead of the picture/thumbnail.

This works properly when the post is text only. It happens on iOS’ PWA on both iPadOS 18.5 and iOS 18.5.

I'm not sure if this is a Voyager issue or a Lemmy API one, but when viewing the profile of someone who comments but hasn't made a post in a while, old posts will be sprinkled randomly through their comments list.

Selecting Posts or Comments returns everything in the correct order; it's only the overview that's wrong.


On a related note, when viewing my own profile it suddenly skips a few weeks of comments after the first page:

(My apology for the politics, but that's where the split was)

This too only happens on the overview page and not when viewing comments alone.

When I flip Voyager to landscape, there's sometimes an extra row of padding below the bottom bar:

It usually fixes itself if I flip to portrait and back a few times:

But after rotating back to portrait, there is now negative padding and the buttons are below my phone's softkeys and unusable:

This happens anywhere in the app.

To Lenny.world for days. No issues with others…

Deleted app and re-downloaded. Still can’t log in.

Any clue?

4 to 5 times over the last few months Voyager has suddenly and unexpectedly erased all my app settings. Each time I've gone through and changed everything back, which takes quite a while, and then I've backed up my settings.

Before that however I always try the previous settings backup I created, and it does nothing. Not one setting gets changed or toggled when I upload the settings backup every single time this has happened, and I've made new ones every time to be sure.

So A. Why does Voyager erase all my settings so frequently? B. What settings, if any, does this button actually backup?

I usually view my Lemmy instance by "All-Hot" because that seems to have the most relevant unread content. I sometimes filter by "top hour or 6 hours".

When I leave and come back to voyager the feed is filled with old, stale content on initial load. If I go back to communities and reload "all" I then get a refreshed feed.

Why doesn't it default to the latest "hot" posts when I load it?

I keep getting the same error message today: (It’s a screenshot, approximately 199kb)

“Problem uploading image: Failed to upload image. Please try again.”

  • Was able to post yesterday but not today. I managed to crop the screenshot to 70kb but still got the same error message.
  • cleared cache on Voyager settings, deleted and reinstalled Voyager
  • now it won’t let me post without photo

Can’t tell why. Inbox works great on all the other lemmy and piefed servers i’ve tried. But not quokk.au (piefed).

The inbox on quokk.au piefed web ui works good.

Image zooming issue (startrek.website)
submitted 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) by [email protected] to c/[email protected]

Hello. I’ve encountered an issue relating to zooming with images at random a few times within the last month. When attempting to zoom, at random the tap field will continue to zoom (even the pinch and pull gesture affects this) until the image has reached a maximum zoom. At this point the image will resize itself to the normal size or do nothing. Whenever this occurs, no other controls work. Only way to stop the behavior is force quoting the app.

EDIT: iPhone 13

I'm not really sure how describe this. Since about 2.37.2, whenever I go back to Home after being on one of the other tabs for a short while I end up in a different place from the one where I left Home.

I have marking as read on scroll turned on and I can see that the posts above my new position are unread.

I'm on the Android app and it still happens in 2.39.0.

Edit: Also, pressing Home to get to the top of the list doesn't work anymore when that happens. It just goes up a few posts at a time.

Edit 2: Just realised, the tab is called "Posts".

~~Edit 3: It doesn't happen when I'm on a post and then go back to the list.~~

Edit 4: Just happened after going back from a post.

Fair warning: I’ve checked the piefed web front end to see if this was an instance problem or a voyager problem, but wasn’t able to enable separated upvotes / downvotes on there so this might not be on your end of things. If that’s the case sorry for an irrelevant bug report!

The bug: certain posts show in piefed with -1 downvotes like so
post with -1 downvotes

While in lemmy they show zero downvotes

same post viewed from lemmy with zero downvotes

Interestingly, downvoting the post makes it zero downvotes which makes me wonder if it’s a piefed issue rather than voyager

same post from piefed, downvoted, with the downvotes now showing zero

Upvoting doesn’t affect the downvotes as you’d expect. I’ve seen this same bug with other posts, but this is the first one I’ve thought to snag screenshots of. Thanks!

I can't see pictures posted by feddit.org users in Voyager right now. When I view [email protected] f.e., I see a lot of "Failed to load media".

And I can't use my feddit.org account in Voyager right now. It says "Failed to load more posts".

I don't experience these problems when I use Lemmy web UI.

I saw matrix.to, and was inspired. vger.to happened to be available and it much shorter than go.getvoyager.app. :)

Since I updated to the latest version of the app - to fix an issue I was having with another error, I can no longer view feddit.uk instance. I initially thought feddit.uk was down and went to view in browser. If I click from an external browser URL and point it to Voyager to control opening it, I get an unknown URL error after the attempt at loading has timed out. (See attached video). I can view other instances e.g. lemmy.ml or lemmy.world but not this one. I downloaded Jerboa just to check but haven't used it yet.

Edited to add video

EDITED - Thanks for the replies. It must be my devices so. I thought it might be my DNS settings which I have set to Adguard DNS, but I disabled that and it made no difference. I will do a fresh install of it tomorrow and see if that helps.

Failed to load media (lemmy.dbzer0.com)
submitted 3 weeks ago by [email protected] to c/[email protected]

I am having an issue where after about 50 posts I'm getting an error message saying it failed to load media. I am using the beta version of the app so I am not sure if that plays a part. Never had this issue before. I've gone through my settings a couple times but couldn't see anything that changed. It happens on both the local and All feeds. Anyone know a solution?

I’d love to be able to configure Tapestry, my feed reader, to open Lemmy posts in Voyager, but not sure where to start.

I was able to configure it to open Mastodon posts in Ivory but Ivory showed up as an option. I don’t know if that was a hard coded option or if maybe the app is registered as a Mastodon client with the OS somehow?

I get "Failed to load media" message whenever I try to upload an image or video in voyager... 🤷

I tried again in the first comment below.

I have been running a personal lemmy server for a long time and using Voyager (web app). The other day I updated as I have done dozens of times before, and it wouldn’t load any posts. I tried logging out and clearing my cache, but when I try to log in to lemmy.masto.community, it just says there was a problem connecting.

The server is obviously up and working or I wouldn’t be able to post this. And logged out, I seem to be able to browse public servers with Voyager. It has just suddenly become incompatible with… something? This is a managed service on Elestio, so it’s maintained automatically.

I figured if I waited a few days it would sort itself out since I can’t be the only one. But I don’t see any posts about this so now I’m wondering if I’m the only one. Any ideas? Thanks!
