I’m using Jerboa and I sometimes see symbols next to peoples’ username. One looks like a “no message” symbol, and the other looks like a “no person” symbol in red. What do they mean? Are there more symbols?

I’ve tried a web search but I only found results related to Motorhead and some kind of desert rodent.

Also, is it possible to search the content of posts on Lemmy? At least in Jerboa the search function seems to be only to search for communities by name. Surely someone has asked this before but I couldn’t figure out how to search posts.

Thanks!

Edit: added an example of the “no person” icon

    Like stinkyhat said, I’m seeing user avatars to the left of usernames, and community icons to the right of usernames. Those are all going to have individual meanings, if they aren’t set to the default.

    As for search, I’m in a web browser, and I don’t find the UI to be very user friendly, either.
