New to this whole Lemmy platform, but I’m liking it.

One problem I’m having is auto-play videos when I open some discussions. Not in the comments, but the post itself starts playing.

I’ll skip my usual rant about what I think should be done to whoever decided to make that a feature, and just ask how to turn it off. I have “auto expand media” unchecked in my lemmy settings.

I appreciate any advice.

    Thanks for the advice. I’ve never ever heard of Rust, but then I am a mere dabbler in programming.

    I suppose an app may be my best bet.

      Rust is very new, and not very common - in fact the language itself is not finished!:-)

      Check out Voyager - it’s a great app, and as James R. Kirk mentioned, you can check it out prior to download. In fact, here’s the link to the example post I gave earlier with the auto playing video, except in Voyager it does not auto play:-).
