Alright, looks like 40% filled up on my screen atm.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Rookie numbers, it's probably 15% on my screen, There's space for a lot more rainbows

[–] [email protected] 2 points 11 months ago (1 children)

My screen is used 50% now on my Fairphone 3+

[–] [email protected] 2 points 11 months ago (1 children)

I hope we're all talking about portrait orientation. Oh boy, filling it up in landscape mode seems a daunting task. °!°

[–] [email protected] 2 points 11 months ago (1 children)

In my App landscape is the same because it makes splitscreen between the Post and the comment section. So the comments are the same width.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 11 months ago (1 children)

I see, somehow completely forgot that apps might be different. In browser version in landscape (I just noticed) there's also the right sidebar, which reserves some space. So it wouldn't even have to go all the way.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 11 months ago (1 children)

It's getting really tight here.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Plenty of space for me still (browser version on desktop)

[–] [email protected] 3 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Yea the moment I have no space here anymore I have to switch to desktop.

Let's start the sixth rainbow!

Nice, bit over half way point here.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 11 months ago (1 children)

I just calculated exact subpixel accuracy, for me it's exactly 20.5̅9̅5̅5̅3̅3̅4̅9̅8̅7̅5̅9̅3̅0̅5̅2̅1̅0̅9̅1̅8̅1̅1̅4̅1̅4̅3̅9̅2̅0̅ % that is still missing to fill the whole comment body with rainbows, way to go!

[–] [email protected] 2 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Thats not accurate anymore because of my reply. Recalculate please.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 11 months ago (1 children)

I do wonder if there's a hard limit at some point regarding "nested replies"...

We're at 22.8̅2̅8̅7̅8̅4̅1̅1̅9̅1̅0̅6̅6̅9̅9̅7̅5̅1̅8̅6̅1̅0̅4̅2̅1̅8̅3̅6̅2̅2̅% slowly gaining rainbow ground

[–] [email protected] 1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Niiiiiiiiiiiicccccccce. Leeeeeets write MORRRE comments.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 11 months ago (2 children)

SUUUUUUUUURE!!!11 I"M oN ITTTTTTTT

[–] [email protected] 1 points 11 months ago

GOOOOOOOOD!!!!

[–] [email protected] 1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

One takeaway from this surely is that such deeply nested endeavours sure are easily missed.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 11 months ago (1 children)
[–] [email protected] 1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Ha, for sure I missed the other comment...

Alright, second season, here we go!

[–] [email protected] 2 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Well first a quick PREVIOUSLY ON PROGRAMMER HUMOR: "How some people are in comments. Always gotta get that one last comment in the chain in."

[–] [email protected] 1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Right, that's how it all started.

I just unfolded everthing. Seems we are on the 8th rainbow. Almost looks like on my phone, while in potrait mode, 10 rainbows will likely have it filled up.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

On mobile, I'm already unable to reply to you.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Oh wow, even if you put it in landscape? In either case, lemmy's web interface hides a lot of context by default when answering via the "messages" notifcation. So in a sense, with that one could reply endlessly. Then again, that's not part of our experiment I'd say.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

With my App I do not have more space in landscape because I will see the post and comment section at the same time in split screen mode.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

I see. 9th rainbow, here we go.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 11 months ago (1 children)
[–] [email protected] 1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Kinda, but that's "rainbows".

Status quo (your comment): 8 x 7 + 1 = 57 sure is bunch of stripes.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

On Desktop, we aren't even at 50% yet, tho.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 11 months ago

Oh boy... can't promise you that I will last that long. I know it sounds pathetic, but is replying to one's own comment an option (just for stress testing)?
