In parallel. The capacitor smooths out the power and keeps it from spiking and shutting down over and over.

A resistor (in series) would help too but might restrict power too much to work well.

No harm in adding a capacitor.

On almost all my projects the weird behavior has been solved by throwing a cap in it

Next time add a capacitor instead of a resistor for this

Liftoff dunks on memmy, it lets you browse the full fediverse and reply using several accounts (in case your main one isn’t federated with an instance you’re viewing)

Memmy was cool but liftoff is my new jam

Liftoff freaking rules. I can view /m/all, true ALL, not related to my instance, and I can comment on any post by having a few lemmy accounts (sopuli.xyz main, lemm.ee covers most everything else, plus beehaw).

Liftoff is the only one I know of that plays nice with multiple accounts and the whole fediverse
