I’ve never seen this before and I haven’t updated to the version with the two ‘search’ icons in the homebar.
Ow, that was confusing, a screenshot of the Jerboa app in the Jerboa app. I could hardly tell where one stopped and the other began. Could probably do with some design changes.
And here I was, tapping like an idiot on the screenshot, wondering what’s happening…
I was confused trying to come back to this post to look at the new comments too 😂
It means the thread is locked (the web UI has a padlock, which conveys the idea better IMO)
Looks like maybe comments are lock on it? It looks a lot like the comment button
I thought that but like 5 posts in a row had them and I was unsure if that many posts would’ve been locked since they weren’t controversial posts
Edit I think that is what it is though, I tried posting in one and a little toast came up saying ‘locked’
It’s a locked topic. There’s a new mod in that community that has a greeting post explaining that several posts in there were off-topic, but had been uovoted, so instead of deleting, they are being locked
