I have a full-time job and thankfully don’t need extra income. I try to relax and do things I enjoy when I’m not working.

FWIW, Gabe’s argument isn’t against subscriptions. The point in that quote is that legal access to content curbs piracy. Piracy will of course always exist, but there’s also customers that are willing to pay if is convenient and accessible.

While not the purpose of this community, make sure you go into your lemmy settings and have any languages you want enabled. The UI isn't very clear so also make sure "undetermined" is selected along any other languages you'd like to see.

That’s inherent to the fediverse. You have to specify which instance you’re referring to. The wording between “community” or “sublemmy” isn’t actually helpful when you have to provide the instance domain anyway.

They named their DVD service "Qwikster" at that time. Obviously it was a terrible idea and had to rebrand.

That's an interesting question. I haven't spent very much time thinking about how to define AI art. My immediate thought is that AI art can be OC, but it should also be labeled as such. It's important to know if a person created the content vs prompting an AI to generate the content. The closest example I can think of is asking someone to paint something for you instead of painting it yourself.

The best was defintely Apollo. Memmy seems to be trying to push the native iOS UI forward, but it's early days for that app.

Elon is a rich con artist.

This is kind of odd on desktop, but lemmy.world added voyager (previously wefwef) as the default view if you visit m.lemmy.world.

My guess is that Lemmy is a new platform. The fediverse is also new to most people (myself included) and that leads to people genuinely replying to posts instead of trolling around.

I didn’t know that. Yet another reason to love Apollo.

I’ve had Detroit style pizza, but I can’t say I liked it very much compared to other pizza styles so I don’t have good recommendations.

My favorite is neapolitan pizza so I’d recommend trying one if you come across a place that does them and haven’t tried it yet.

Why is that crazy? If I loan the bank money and they make money on my loan I should get paid for it.

Apollo’s video and gif player was so good. Scrub anywhere you want, fast loading, and compared to the official Reddit app — it actually worked.

I quickly switched to feedly after the Google reader sunset, but I mostly access feedly via Reeder on Apple products. The feedly website works well when needed though.

Does it matter if Apple starts supporting RCS? If they start supporting it, they'll still treat it like SMS - green bubbles and all.

A flat tax system would resolve a lot of this.
