This is not noted in any docs, I only heard this from another Lemmy thread where several ppl confirmed this happened to them. Once you turn the setting on you can select if you want it turned on for 7 days or forever. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] Cris_Citrus@piefed.zip 3 points 1 month ago* Ohhhh, I was misunderstanding you I'm just gonna delete my comments cause now your comments make very clear what the correct understanding of how it works is.
