So your first common ancestors are your great great grandparents, so that’s third cousin, and they’re a generation older than you, so once removed. Third cousin once removed.

I believe that the answer is second cousin once removed.

I believe you need to count the distance to the common ancestor from the older generation of the two people being related.

I agree that the first common ancestor is OP’s great-great-grandparent. But only OP’s relation’s great-grandparent. So OP’s parent and OP’s relation are second cousins.

Then the removed takes you down the tree from OP’s parent to OP.

I did not understand the issue when I first wrote that comment and posted it in the wrong place on a Sync for Reddit thread.

Nor did I fully understand the issue when I copied that comment here.

But I did figure out a few moments later when I read the referenced report.

I appreciate the clarification, as I’m sure will others.

I’ve switched back to Boost in the interim.

For greater clarity, it’s an issue with Sync for Lemmy continuing to use an API parameter that was formerly deprecated and now entirely removed from Lemmy.

Sync for Lemmy is identifying a post that needs to be marked as read using a single value parameter, but it should use a slightly different parameter that could accept multiple posts.

Just found this post. Copying and pasting a comment I made elsewhere:

I just started having this problem in the past few days after it working for a long time.

I’ve cleared all my data and reset all my settings. On the web I have it set to not show read posts. In the app I haven’t set to mark read on scroll. And to show read posts as dimmed.

But no matter how much I scroll nothing gets dimmed, and when I refresh everything is still there.

Everyone is saying no, and I’m no expert, and I believe that for purposes beyond amusement value, the answer basically is no, but…

1. The times that I’ve had covid, the strength of the T signal has started weak, gotten strong, and then trailed slowly off over the course of days.

2. Same for family members.

3. Same for acquaintances who I’ve seen post day-by-day test photos on social media.

4. I’ve read that if you are vaccinated and boosted, your antigen response kicks in faster and so more closely parallels your communicability curve. That is to say that unvaccinated people will be communicable before home antigen tests start noticing that you’re responding. But people who have had covid or vaccinations will test positive sooner. And specifically I’ve read that during the incubation stage when you are infected but not very communicable yet the tests may miss you, but on the other hand that’s okayish because you’re not very communicable yet.

5. Everything that everyone has said about all the variability can be at least partially controlled, if you are using the same test batch, in the same location, at the same time of day, following the same idiosyncratic procedure for each.

He did actually. While being beaten. It’s in the article. not/s!
