MODERATORS
just a guess, but looks like it's listing every upvote as a reblog by the community?
the list could combine all the reblogs by the same user into a single line, no need to show multiple I think
You mean 'thorn in my side'
Or "a bug on my side", depending on what they mean. Prepositions are hard.
I've never heard of that form of the expression.
It's not the same expression. I mean "a bug" as in a software error and "on my side" as in it's not Lemmy's fault.
Now I see that OP is the creator of the tumblr clone Wafrn I'm sure it's just a typo and that this is the intended meaning.
Oh, so like 'I'm experiencing a bug on my side of things' or something like that. I get what you are saying now, I think.
I was pretty confused. Lol
