    OP, I’m not sure whether you intended to submit this image or a larger image and accidentally submitted a thumbnail, but this thing is 96 pixels on each side…

      Hmm, for some reason you’re only seeing the thumbnail. It’s normal on my end. Are you on a Lemmy client or browsing on a mobile browser perhaps? Though I checked and it’s fine on Voyager at least.

      It’s also possible that ImgBB is blocked on your end. I’ll put an Imgur version when I’m on PC.

        I’m using the Lemmy Web UI on lemmy.today. I also checked on your home instance’s (programming.dev) Web UI as well, on the off chance that this was some sort of, oh, PieFed/Lemmy incompatibility or something like that, as I have seen that before, or a Lemmy version compatibility issue, and it also shows the 96 pixel thumbnail.

        EDIT: For completeness, also tiny in Blorp and Eternity on lemmy.today.

          Added an Imgur version to the main post, hopefully you can see that one.

          By the way, there is something weird happening with ImgBB. I tried to upload to Imgur using ImgBB link and it uploaded as the thumbnail, no idea why but they seem related.

              Thanks for the feedback. I was initially using Imgur for my image dump for some years but some users reported that Imgur is blocked where they live so I started using ImgBB instead. However sometimes I get feedback like yours that they cannot view the image, well not exaclty like yours but similar. So I haven’t find one where no one has problems yet.

    The trick with emacs is to get a keyboard where you can press CTRL with your palm instead of fingers. I’ve been really doing it until I switched to zed.

      Just swap Left Control and Caps Lock.

      https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Keyboard_layout

      Many Unix workstations (and also home computers like the Amiga) keyboards placed the Ctrl key to the left of the letter A, and the ⇪ Caps Lock key in the bottom left.

      The problem is that Control on PC keyboards is in a place where it’s really uncomfortable to use on a very frequent basis. Giving Caps Lock, which virtually nobody uses terribly heavily, that prime piece of real estate is just nuts.

      On Debian Linux, that’s:

      /etc/default/keyboard:

      XKBOPTIONS="ctrl:swapcaps"
      

      And:

      # dpkg-reconfigure keyboard-configuration
      # service keyboard-setup restart
      

      That’ll handle the Linux console and X11/Wayland. Only place you’ll ever see Control in its PC location then is in the bootloader and BIOS.

      That’ll also cover laptop internal keyboards or something like that, where you are gonna have limited options for hardware alternatives and can’t use exotic keyboards.

    Yes, identify is a valid Linux command-line command, but it is not a native shell built-in or a core operating system utility. Instead, it is an external command that belongs to the widely used ImageMagick suite of tools.
