What about if you back out to the main feed and then decide to go back to the comments later? This is where all other clients fail in my experience

LETSSS GOOO!English2·1 month agoDoes it save your position in the comments of a specific post? That’s my #1 criterion for an app. Boost is the only one that I’ve found that does it
PrimeErective@startrek.websiteto Fediverse@lemmy.world•There's a clear up tick on daily users growing and we've crossed the 50k line as of yesterday! LETSSS GOOO!English12·1 month agoIs Boost dead though? I love it too, but it hasn’t updated in a while
There’s one feature Boost has that I really miss when I try to switch, which is that it will save your position in the comments of a post. So like if you scroll down halfway and then leave the comments and come back, you are still in the same spot. Every other client I’ve tried doesn’t have that feature and it’s kinda a deal breaker for me

It says if you can read the sign, you’re in range. It’s an anomaly, after all.

PrimeErective@startrek.websiteto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Why do all languages share the same intonation for questions?2·7 months agoThe first two have emphasis that imply something different than a simple question. Like you are asking a bunch of people individually, and you are directing each question at a specific person.
The last one would maybe be like, if the person did something weird, and you were sarcastically asking where the are from, to imply that they were raised by wolves, or something like that.
Point being, yes, you can ask like that, but it has different connotations than a simple question, which I think is where you would use the rising intonation.
PrimeErective@startrek.websiteto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Why do all languages share the same intonation for questions?31·7 months agoI’m totally with you. I think it is somewhat speaker dependent, but that is how I would say those questions.
What’s your NAme
How OLD (are you)?
Where are you FROm?
PrimeErective@startrek.websiteto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Why do all languages share the same intonation for questions?1·7 months agoI guess in this example, “who is your daddy?” Is the main question, which has a somewhat flat intonation, but contrasted to the emphasis in the second half of the sentence, it feels like a rise
Yeah, that makes sense. It doesn’t just automatically become their money, just because they took your car. This seems like a totally logical way to handle it, so I’m not surprised that it’s the opposite of the way things usually work
