FediThing 🏳️‍🌈<p>Does anyone know the terms for traditional in-ear earphones that sit slightly outside your ear canal vs the ones fashionable nowadays that you stick all the way in with foam or rubber caps? Cannot find any consistent names to distinguish these even though they are totally different.</p><p>I cannot use the ones you stick all the way inside, but it's really difficult to find search terms for the traditional kind.</p><p>EDIT: Searching for earbuds or earphones doesn't work, shows ones that go all the way in.

Yazad<p><span class="h-card"><a href="https://social.growyourown.services/@FediTips" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>FediTips</span></a></span>, I’m having a lot of trouble with the mastodon iPhone app where all of a sudden while reading a toot the screen jerks and I’m pushed to 5 or 10 posts down. I have to scroll back up to continue reading what I was before being interrupted. Then it happens again. I’m suspecting this is possibly because some of the posts with links render a preview and causes all posts under it to realign vertically. Is this a known issue? Any recommendations? <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/askfedi" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>askfedi</span></a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/Mastodon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Mastodon</span></a></p>
