Sometimes there are large black boxes on above and below the images

[Link to the post](https://mander.xyz/post/19251516) I'm not sure what causes this, when downloading the image, there isn't these empty spaces.

Feature request: Merged chats!

There are some people I talk to on multiple platforms & it would be incredibly useful if I could see all of these conversations in one place. I understand this isn't trivial but this is how I would expect it to function: - New UI element that the send button includes a drop down to select which platform you want to message this person on. - Default response is configurable per conversation and can be set to "respond on their most recent platform" - If you reply in a thread, it always uses the platform that thread is from I understand this is a non trivial amount of work to implement but it would be so incredibly handy! Thanks for reading.

Do I need open unifi or is a simple router okay for my setup?

I'm moving into a new apt and the ISP is trying to rent a router at $20/mo, so I'd like to get my own router. I'm considering setting up opnsense for the router & TP link Omega for the AP & Switch. But this feels a bit overkill for an apt. Should I just get a all in one router instead? What are the pros and cons?

Public Transit advocates?

Hey, I'm moving to Orlando soon and am interested in advocating for public transit in my community. I was wondering if there are any existing organizations with this goal which I could support?

What platform do you prefer for talking to others also on beeper?

Firstly ~ I'm a huge fan of beeper! Can't wait for a paid tier to come out so I can support it. I recently got my partner on to beeper as well & I was wondering what platform do y'all prefer for messaging with other people also on beeper? At the moment we're using WhatsApp via beeper (we were using WhatsApp before) ~ I'm considering moving to matrix on beeper, but it seems much less feature complete (Can't show her profile picture on it since rooms can only have one photo for everyone, typing indicator doesn't function, etc.) I'd like to move away from Meta-owned WhatsApp. What do you suggest?

How to handle a miss-communicated repair?

I broke the screen on my pixel 7 pro, I took it to get repaired by a local shop & we discussed that I wanted an original part. They interpreted this as I want a “new” part, but not an original one. They've now done the repair with an aftermarket screen, which is much lower quality than an OEM part. I've asked them to make this right, but they say they've done what they said they'd do. I feel ripped off, but I also don't want to be unfair to the work that they've done, installing the part and all. I'm just looking for guidance on how to handle this situation? Has anyone been here before?

OSM resturaunt photos/reviews?

I've been contributing to Google Maps for a while, specifically, I usually upload pictures of menu's from restaurants, so future visitors can see them before they decide to eat there! I'm trying to degoogle my life a bit & was wondering if there is a way I could contribute these to OSM?

Screen randomly goes black & then requires login on Fedora.

I have not been able to notice a pattern as to why/when this happens. But after the black screen for a few seconds, it comes back to the login page. I've updated the bios to the newest version with no success, would love some assistance at least debugging this. This is my relevant system information:

Is it possible to have dynamic light/dark which follow system settings for themes created using color.firefox.com?

I've created 2 themes on https://color.firefox.com/ ~ one light themed & one dark themed. Would it be possible to configure these as a dynamic theme which follows my system's light/dark settings? (I'm using Fedora if that's relevant)

Does anyone have experience with Volta Chargers? (or Magnetic chargers generally?)

I'm in the process of replacing my entire cable line up to be entirely USB-C & I am interested in perhaps getting something like [volta spark cables](https://www.voltacharger.com/products/extra-volta-spark-cable). Has anyone tried these before?
