And for those that prefer old reddit: https://old.reddit.com/r/LinusTechTips/comments/15t1mzn/mandatory_meeting_the_after_madisons_departure/?rdt=35142

I’m thinking of switching to an Apple Watch from a Garmin Vivoactive 4. But I’m not sure if that’s a good move.

Track mania. It’s a little addictive. Though I’m not good enough to participate in the online events, yet.

Actually, if one uses the official Reddit app, they do have real names. It’s part of the data that the app reads out of your phone’s settings.

Everything is better than Brand X. Every ad has told me so.

It’s a reference to “musk”

Does Stinky believe that by suing these researchers, the rise in hate speech didn’t happen?!

But reddit’s search sucks!

I’m sure. But my raspberry pi 3 can barely run Hass without overheating. (had to remove adguard from the same device because that made it overheat a few times a week)

Maybe when I upgrade it to a proper home server, I’ll look into replacing my Google home speakers.

It’s easier to say “hey Google, turn off all lights” than go to Home Assistant and turn each off by hand.

It’ll slowly fizzle away, becoming more and more irrelevant.

btw tumblr isn’t dead either.

“thrives”, “inflates its userbase using instagram”.
Potato, potato.

Musk has fully entered the altright edgelord arena.

Meanwhile, Amazon does sell ads. Sponsored products are advertisements.

What was the inspiration for these internet standards?

Hey, I know those glasses! That’s Sharon from accounting! She told me, her boss, that she had swiftness disease.

Makes me wonder if Steve from IT really had an appointment at the tailor.

It very much isn’t a hail Mary to generate money, they’d have bent over backwards if they’d wanted to keep big players like Apollo and RIF on board, if it had been a hail Mary. 20 million bucks a year is nothing to be sneezed at.

The fact that they left Apollo out to dry shows that it never was about making more revenue, but rather to stamp out competition for their own app. As soon as it has accessibility parity with other apps, it’ll turn off API access for unofficial reddit apps alltogether.

For multilingual people. Please be aware that wefwef will fail upon posting comments, if you have selected more than 1 language in your Lemmy profile. Wefwef comes back with the error message that you need to select a language in your Lemmy profile.

Go to wefwef.app in your browser. Now open the options menu of your browser (the three dots, if on Android, the square with the arrow pointing up, if on iOS) and find the option to put a bookmark on your home screen (in iOS it’s called “add to home screen”)

This will create a sandboxed version of wefwef.app, tap it and it should load like a normal app. (this is what Apple envisioned as apps way back when, before they realized that they could make money selling apps)

When the page has loaded, in the bottom middle, tap on “lemmy.world”, and log in to your Lemmy instance.

Enjoy.

One thing to be aware of. If you have selected more than one language in your Lemmy profile, wefwef fails to post comments because you need to select which language you typed in, and you can’t select that (yet?) in wefwef.

You would still know what Meta is thinking of doing on the Fediverse, and adjust course accordingly. Now we 1) know nothing, and 2) have closed off an avenue to gain information.
