Im on a “pay as you go” contract so browsing lemmy or the internet in general can get expensive quickly, this isnt a problem for people who get unlimited data on a fixed plan. But those plans are too expensive for me and many other users.(around about £15ish a month.) If there was a mobile data mode for lemmy there would be downsides to the experience, such as lower picture quality, and the mild inconvenience of needing to click of an image before viewing. But i think that this is a needed feature for many users. (This applies to lemmy and lemmur.)

    (lemmy and lemmur have different developers)

    I think such a feature would be very cool!

    Until someone implements it you can use something like this ff plugin. For it to work you have to set up your own free heroku app.
