I think a big part of it is that when we are young, all of these are new experiences to us. And as such, they carry a lot more emotion and stimulation.

As an adult, you've experienced many things. To some degree, your brain is likely acustomed to it.

Something that helps is breaking out of your routines and experiencing new things. I've heard our neural pathways described as the grooves that form on a hill when sledding. When you first slide down the hill, you're making brand new grooves. Each trip is different and unique. But over time, trails get established and you end up using the same worn trails over and over.

Experiencing new, bespoke things is like breaking out of the trails and making a new one.

At least, that's my understanding! I'm not a proffessional, just someone who can relate to what you're describing :)

To be fair, that poster does look pretty awesome.

Agreed. Feels weird how normalied addictive social media behavior has become.

I’m really curious to see if any of these options can pan out long-term. It’s extremely expensive to host video, and it seems like it could be a real challenge for federated video hosting to take off at scale. I’m hopeful!

arc is developed by The Browser Company. its free, but I don’t believe it’s open source. its basically a UI layer on top of chromium so its performance is about what you would get out of Chrome.

Dunno. I wasn’t the OP.

When I was little, the Gremlins movies terrified me! Not sure why since they're super campy, but 🤷‍♂️ kids are weird.

Wow I completely misread the title. I thought it was what worlds would you RATHER live in! 🤦‍♂️

Studio Ghibli worlds are lovely so I'd definitely want to live in them :)

There's a lot of great options out there that aren't Gmail.

Lemmy is open source. The developers are working on this for free (minus some sponsorships). PR's are always welcome to help add new features you want :)

I kind of agree. Hard to take too seriously with that kind of verbiage.

Any of the worlds from Studio Ghibli films.

Agreed - you can tell a lot about someone by how they treat restauraunt staff.

Oof. I don't know how you do it. I can deal with a dry heat but humidity just slays me.

huh?

Agreed! Admittedly I am quite biased as I am an Admin, but I really enjoy the little community we hae going at lemm.ee :)

wow, this is a blast from the past. Feels like forever ago!

this is a classic 😊

lemmyverse.net is helpful for finding new communities.

Thanks for the kind words! I will do my best :)

Thank you! 🙏

Thank you for the kind words! I will do my best to make the best Lemmy client for iOS. Excited to share with you all as development progresses! 😃

Nice thanks for sharing, haven't heard about onmail before.

❤️🍋❤️

It’s not released yet, but I think Lemon will be a good app! Note I am pretty biased :-)

That's precisely my goal - to make Lemmy as easy and as fun to use as Reddit is/was with great apps like Apollo! :) I hope to do a small part in helping Lemmy to grow 🤞

Not currently in the roadmap, but I've gotten this question a few times, so I may consider it in the future once Lemmy support is stable.

im worried about Mozillas ability to keep growing Firefox. They laid off a lot of their firefox team a few years ago and have been dipping into more commercial interests.. we really need Mozilla to be the FOSS counter to big tech.

I definitely will. Thanks for your support!

Why did you post this same thread multiple times?

Great app!

Right now, the plan is to support iOS 13 or higher. So if you make that cut off, you should be able to use Lemon! :)

I have been a big fan of authy for a few years. Works well for me.

I wondered if folks were still using Hey. I use the iOS app Spark for managing my email, it has a similar "allow list" for new senders. Agreed it's super helpful.

This is pretty much the reason I use 1Password. I don't like Safari, and it has reasonably good UX and extensions for all browsers + native apps.

I think JavaScript is a great first language. Easy to pick up, but lots of potential (frontend/backend/native). A lot of people dislike JavaScript (some valid reasons, some not) but it's undeniably a great first language.

I want to live in that world.

I will too. Apollo was such a great app. I am still hopeful that the developer will pivot to Lemmy support! More options for Lemmy is only a good thing🤞

Yeah totally fair, changing email is a huge pain!
