Maybe I don’t understand how Lemmy works yet…

I’ve created an account on lemmy.world. I’ve subscribed to memes@lemmy.ml. In the browser, I can up-vote posts on lemmy.ml. However, when I tried the same thing it the app, it told me I had to log into lemmy.ml to up-vote.

Is this right? How come it works in the browser?

    Yeah, the way Lemmy is supposed to work is the way the website works. Requiring accounts on other instances to interact with content in those instances is, in the context of Lemmy, fair to describe as a “bug”. I hope it’s uninetentional and will be fixed soon - if it is a design choice that the devs are committed to for some reason, that alone makes this client not worth a lot.
