If there's a post with information I want to save, I email it to myself, same for FOSS posts where I want to try the software on the PC.
It might just be that I get a notification while I'm on the PC and want to answer. This post is on lemmy.ml, so if I opened it on the computer while I'm logged in to dbzer0, I wouldn't be able to type this reply.
That's very incorrect. I'm on midwest.social and I can reply.
That's odd, I can reply now. The link from my replies is https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/post/5239822 though, rather than the original lemmy.ml link.
I've got https://programming.dev/c/learn_programming open in another tab, a link that I emailed myself to read on the computer, and that's asking me to log in.
Hi there! Looks like you linked to a Lemmy community using a URL instead of its name, which doesn't work well for people on different instances. Try fixing it like this: !learn_programming@programming.dev
Not odd at all. You're logged in on dbzer, you're not on programming.dev, because they're different servers. Your server fetches posts from other servers before you can comment on them.
As the others wrote, you should be able to reply.
Additionally, I would like to remind you of the star. You can mark posts and comments and find them in your profile.
Thanks, I always forget about the star. I'm so used to just sending myself links that I forget that there are other ways sometimes :)
There is also just a dbzer0 link to this post (https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/post/5239822) that you should be able to send to yourself. I can't imagine Voyager wouldn't let you access that.
Sorry, yes, Voyager lets me read and reply to everything. It's when I try to open a link on my PC that I get the problem. I opened this thread from my replies, and get the dbzer0 link that you posted rather than the original lemmy.ml link, and I can reply on the PC. I've got https://programming.dev/c/learn_programming open in another tab though, a link that I emailed myself to read on the PC, and it asks me to log in, even though I'm currently logged in to dbzer0.
