And we're about to enter the fourth rainbow dimension in the next comment...
Y'all done yet?
No!
Oh, it's still going!
Of course!
Alright, looks like 40% filled up on my screen atm.
Rookie numbers, it's probably 15% on my screen, There's space for a lot more rainbows
My screen is used 50% now on my Fairphone 3+
I hope we're all talking about portrait orientation. Oh boy, filling it up in landscape mode seems a daunting task. °!°
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.
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.
It's getting really tight here.
Plenty of space for me still (browser version on desktop)
Yea the moment I have no space here anymore I have to switch to desktop.
Let's start the sixth rainbow!
Leeeeets goooo
Nice, bit over half way point here.
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!
Thats not accurate anymore because of my reply. Recalculate please.
I do wonder if there's a hard limit at some point regarding "nested replies"...
I don't think so.
We're at 22.8̅2̅8̅7̅8̅4̅1̅1̅9̅1̅0̅6̅6̅9̅9̅7̅5̅1̅8̅6̅1̅0̅4̅2̅1̅8̅3̅6̅2̅2̅% slowly gaining rainbow ground
Niiiiiiiiiiiicccccccce. Leeeeeets write MORRRE comments.
SUUUUUUUUURE!!!11 I"M oN ITTTTTTTT
GOOOOOOOOD!!!!
One takeaway from this surely is that such deeply nested endeavours sure are easily missed.
ey
Ha, for sure I missed the other comment...
So we can continue now.
Alright, second season, here we go!
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."
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.
On mobile, I'm already unable to reply to you.
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.
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.
I see. 9th rainbow, here we go.
9 in a very small number imo
Kinda, but that's "rainbows".
Status quo (your comment):
8 x 7 + 1 = 57sure is bunch of stripes.On Desktop, we aren't even at 50% yet, tho.
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)?
