Indonesian does; kiri (left) and kanan (right). "Ki" and "Ka" are usually used in texts (e.g., for captions in newspaper/magazine articles), but for headphones, contact lenses, etc it's normally just L/R.
As someone who's had a single-user Mastodon instance for two years now: I love it. It's definitely not for everyone, for reasons mainly stated in the article. However, if you like a more personal, highly-curated federated timeline, a single-user instance is great.
I 90% use Mastodon to keep up with my friends' posts and see art and animal pictures (and I hate interacting with strangers LOL), so I curate my instance to only subscribe to them. For the remaining 10%, I have a secondary account on a larger instance for when I want to read the news etc. It's worked well for me, but again, it's surely not for everyone!
Japanese Misskey/Mastodon servers have also been spammed by the exact same thing since about 15 hours ago, and it's still going. I guess they're targeting Lemmy as well now, damn...
It's not a cop, it's Captain Pikachu from the anime.
Personally I find both sides a bit grating, but moreso the anti-Sync crowd lol.
I used Sync for Reddit and paid for lifetime, but after a while I found that I liked Infinity better, so I switched. I'm now using Infinity for Lemmy and probably won't use Sync for Lemmy, but people who are using Sync (and paid for it)? Good for them. No need to tell them, "Haha you're a sucker for paying for something when there are free alternatives!!", you lose absolutely nothing by other people using Sync or other proprietary apps.
Let people use what they want, jfc.
Seconding Stremio! Just had to install the Torrentio add-on and even my tech-challenged mom can use it on her Android TV with no problems. I also got her a RealDebrid account (9 EUR/6 months iirc, completely optional) so she doesn't have to deal with torrent seeds etc.
Exactly this. I read the article in the post and thought it actually sounds like a nice service, but after getting this ad when searching "depression" on DDG last year, I don't think I'll ever trust them again lol.
I use Omnivore!
Yep. My parents offered to buy my gen Z brother a car, and he asked for an e-bike instead. I (a millenial) also choose to not have a car for both environmental reasons and just... not wanting to drive and deal with traffic and car maintenance and whatnot. Thankfully we live in a city whose public transportation's getting better by day.
Replying to this from the comment section using Thunder.
Our research has several limitations and should be interpreted with appropriate caution. Firstly, our evaluation technique likely underestimates the real-world value of human conversations, as the clinicians in our study were limited to an unfamiliar text-chat interface, which permits large-scale LLM–patient interactions but is not representative of usual clinical practice.
Just binged Skip to Loafer a couple of weeks ago, I'm still thinking about it now.
Awesome list! Found some apps I'm interested in from the list, will definitely check them out. Thank you for compiling this!
Yeah, the crypto stuff is getting too much, plus they're shoving stuff like their VPN, search, and news down users' throat. I used to use Brave as a secondary browser bc of its profile feature, but switched to Orion a couple weeks ago and never looked back.
My sibling's delightful ex-roommate--a conservative, 20something, middle-class, cishet white man--said that he feels very oppressed in their college town! He's always scared of saying what he thinks bc then everyone will think of him badly! Literally the most oppressed! (His actual words)
