Do you think millennials who grew up with the early Internet and home computers will be as bad with future technology as boomers are with current technology?

jcrabapple@dmv.pub to I switched to Firefox/Librewolf (with a brief stint on Vivaldi) last year and haven't looked back.
This is what happens when you launch with no content discovery features, so you have to whore yourself out and follow anyone and everyone if you want to get any attention. "Content creators" and clout chasers are the primary customer of this service, so without that I don't know why they'd want to use it.
Double my salary, then we'll talk.
Looks fantastic. Nice and clean.
Use LibreTube.
It's the best Chromium browser. Company seems like it's run by decent people who listen to their users.
The fediverse has made social networking fun again.
Smaller instances won't have a lot of the issues that the main instance has. I run one at https://dmv.pub. DMV being the DC/Maryland/Virginia region but anyone is welcome to join.
I've been an early adopter subscribe for months and I'm loving it. The tools available make searching easier and so much more useful.

twit.tv is good for more mainstream tech talk. Late Night Linux, Linux Unplugged, Self Hosted.
CalcKey just rebranded to Firefish. It has a very pretty UI but UX is currently bad as there is no way to globally disable boosts so you will see the same posts in your timeline over and over and over again. Following hashtags is limited to the Antennas feature so you won't see those posts in your timeline. Until they fix these things it's unusable for me personally.
Have you tried Akkoma or Pleroma? I run an Akkoma instance at https://shrediverse.net if you want to try it out. You can use the web app or an app like Fedilab on Android.
Have you tried other ways of viewing Mastodon? Different web apps or mobile apps? Like https://elk.zone , https://phanpy.social , https://semaphore.social.
No hashtags, no full text search. Just an algorithmic feed and a following feed, and you can only search users.

I had every Nexus except for the 5, and every Pixel except for the 5. I've had really good luck with them all. Only problem I had was after about a year the wireless charging stopped working on my Pixel 4 XL. I've handed down almost every single phone to either my parents or my kids after at least a year of use and they continue to last a few more years. I can't recall one ever dying. I swear by them.
Ditch iOS if you want more control over your phone.
I know.
I was 10 when the Cranberries released "Dreams". I remember the first time I heard it on my dad's fancy stereo in my parent's basement. I was fascinated from the moment I heard that opening guitar chord. This song ended up on many of my mix tapes (and later mix CDs) throughout the 90s. Still to this day it makes me feel like I'm at home sitting on the floor listening to the radio.
There's been a circle jerk going on for years and now they decide they're unhappy?!
This is one of the best things about Kbin!
I run an instance for the DC area. https://DMV.pub
Currently, AT protocol is mostly theoretical because it's newer and a lot of things haven't been implemented yet . ActivityPub is much more widespread, but some of the ideas for AT protocol would be great in ActivityPub, like better account portability.
So Much For The Afterglow reminds of me driving around in my car with my high school friends, trying to stay out of trouble lol.
Sometimes you just have to learn the hard way.
Target. Best Buy. Walmart, if I have to. The Shop app is pretty good.
We use it liberally but we are encouraged to do so.
Love this band. I can't believe this album is a decade old.
Yeah if you listen to the albums in order you can hear the growth and the maturation of his voice. Really impressive vocalist.
Actually I only pay $20/month for a hosted opensearch server for my Mastodon instance. I think a lot of people on Mastodon are against full text search for ideological reasons.
EyeBuyDirect and Firmoo.
Lauren has a solo album and solo tour coming up!
You're welcome to join my https://dmv.pub Kbin instance. It federates with Lemmy.
Have kids! They'll make you feel old when they call the music you grew up with "oldies" or "classic rock".
Personally I would pass away and die.
I think it will make a great "app store" for Linux. Easy for the new or average user to find and install apps.
I hope they fix the bug where detailed notifications don't work.
This is what I use. Works great!
Dude's personal life is a mess but you can't deny his amazing talent. It's good to see he's back with a new album. Hopefully he stays clean and healthy.

I started paying for Kagi a few months ago and I'm loving it. Search results and tools are great. People balk at paying for a search engine, but at least this way I know I'm not the product.
