40-something redditfugee.

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

Victoria is still very much missed

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.

"thrives", "inflates its userbase using instagram".
Potato, potato.

Musk has fully entered the altright edgelord arena.

What's a reddit?

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

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

What do you mean with "replacing"?

Example, I'm not visiting reddit anymore, instead spending some of my social media time here on Lemmy. So for me it has already replaced it.

But if you mean replacing reddit as "the Internet's frontpage". I don't know. It would be nice, but on the other hand, maybe we shouldn't want that.

What was the inspiration for these internet standards?

You're willing to pay more to get less?!

On the one hand I can totally understand this reaction by Kev, on the other hand, by completely locking off all discussions like this, means that there's no way to change things for the better.

Granted, it's Meta, they're not to be trusted, but still, a discussion, if one has the time, wouldn't be too bad an idea.

They're also removing the coins and awards that you got for reddit Premium. They're doing a speedrun of destruction of platform

But reddit's search sucks!

Have you double checked this date?

The 7th one will shock you!

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

btw tumblr isn't dead either.

To each their own kink

So. We went from Outlook Express to Windows Mail back to Outlook?! Make up your damn mind, Microsoft

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

It’s a reference to “musk”

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

Finally the karma store is real!

Nope, it really doesn't need that, just use any of the web clients if you need that.

But lemmy, nor Mastodon, nor Pixelfed, nor kbin need that.

Technically, yes, iPhone users can set up custom icons, but it's a faf and a half to set up, because you have to use the app Shortcuts and I believe it only works on your home screen, not in the app drawer.

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.

Do you add links in your YouTube comments? If so, then that's the reason. Don't add links in YouTube comments.

That's really weird then

I'll stick with pocket casts.

For that reason I went to geddit.social, which is hosted by Stux, who also hosts several Dutch Mastodon instances. I'm also paying him on Patreon.

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.

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.

I tried to get Powerwash Simulator, twice. The payment failed both times, through 2 different payment methods (and not because I don't have the money). I'm taking that as a sign that I'm better off without it.

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.

Can you use iPhones as Point of Sales devices?
I've seen plenty of those handheld devices that then attach to phones via Bluetooth for payments, but I haven't seen people use iPhones to scan bank cards for payment.

Or did you mean 5? Because with iOS17, Apple is introducing a way to share your personal data as a 'smart' business card type thing using your phone. And it might be that what was discussed at the NFC forum was a form of that.

When I was still on android, I loved Minuum as my daily driver keyboard. It took some getting used to, but it supported multiple languages at the same time and its word recognition was beyond anything I've ever seen. But I don't know if it still works.

It was also on ios, but they pulled it from the store last year and the website for it disappeared.

If you like Tetris-like puzzle games you could look at Mixolumia

If you have to use reddit on your iphone, use Narwhal instead of the privacy-data hungry official crapp.
