Then don’t use it or don’t complain
Person behind Arctius for lemmy :) My other account: delirium@lemm.ee
I like cats and chickens.
Then don’t use it or don’t complain
Spotify is cheap and that’s a fact. What’s the point of complain about single free music service?
Just… pay? It’s very cheap.
That’s a con and a pro of decentralized net: if you don’t like the owner, pick another instance or create your own and be the king. Bad news is, every instance is controlled by couple regular folks who’re not responsible financially so they can imply their own rules and post and ban whatever they want.
Like the jungle: you gotta learn to survive and avoid the monkeys with rabies.
That’s pretty much the main reason I migrated to proton pass… was bugging me for a year I think
Worth to note that their audio quality and anc is worse than competition noticeably. So its quality vs environment
Throwing money into the fire to escape responsibility does not work? No way!
I thought I was alone in this lol
Win11 literally made me rage uninstall it after I got mad trying to remove all bloatware and then it showed me onedrive ad
More than that, I never saw political or controversial “influencer” content on YouTube at all. It’s mostly tech reviews, memes, travel and photography videos, just exactly what I watch.
Algorithms are so good these days it’s kinda funny to see someone being angry about being offered to watch the same stuff they usually watch
Tech related stuff and old memes*
Not like you can’t access their community anymore
I think that asking to be paid for your work is totally fine (albeit I myself made my lemmy app completely free and opensource, simply because its just my hobby project), but its a rather different story when you provide app for open source, nonprofit venture-free platform and start to inject ads and trackers into it. Its goes against the entire idea of free decentralised platform and makes it closer to profit-focused app like reddit/threads/etc imo
contains adds
contains in-app purchases
collects data
shares data with 3d party orgs
Nothing against sync, but this is not what I’d expect from lemmy app tbh. There’s a lot of free open source options that don’t sell your data.
Asking to be paid for your job is OK, but injecting ads in ad-free opensource service, selling user data? This is just reddit-app-moment in my opinion
Telegram with my gf and family, discord with friends. Fb messenger is awful to say the least
All these things are solving different problems and you absolutely don’t have to use them if they complicate your current workflow.
I can’t imagine making a high interval trading app, things like notion or figma without modern libraries.
jQuery only gets you so far before you will wake up in unmaintainable hell where your team has to re-invent the wheel
Always confused when I see memes like this
You learn js, then you learn a bit about ts and pick react/vue if you want to do frontend or nodejs if you’re into backend. Then you do something basic, like a barebones twitter clone, weather app, etc. By the point when you’re 80% done, you will know most important parts of the ecosystem naturally
After that, learning all the supporting libraries/frameworks is super simple since next is just superset around react, same for nuxt. Solid, svelte, fresh etc are just different flavors of react. Even vue is looking like react this days with composition api, simply because they nailed the simplicity and dev comfort. Average dev will never face weird js/ts parts or confusing libraries because most of their day to day job will be moving buttons and looking how to persist user basket in browser storage…
Sure there are a lot of libraries and ways to do stuff, but 90% of them are irrelevant, only-for-hobby or simply dead and unused since 2010. Knowing ts+(react|vue)+(vuex|redux-tk|mobx)+(styled|tailwind) will land someone a basic job where they can progress and expand their knowledge lol
Some of the specific communities are there but not here or barely alive here (like my phone’s brand) so I’m visiting them from PC. Spez gets no moni because I’m always using unblock there though
Simple explanation: imagine an instance as an apartment house, where communities are apartments (where people can gather). You also have neighbor buildings (instances) with their own apartments. You can go and visit them freely if you want. In that case, federation will be like a city I guess
This is so strange to be honest, my pixels battery was great for the last few months, better than ever (I leave to work with 80 abd coke back home with around 40 almost every day)
Great core gameplay, multiple boring or just bad patches; devs who care more about their imaginary milsim being close to their imaginary reality than about player fun; slow content rollout (still no new race despite them being leaked many months ago)
In the end I had my fair share of fun but I see no real reason to come back.
