Download an APK of an older version and disable auto-updates.

The API still works well so the old client doesn’t have any issues.

I know I can.

But my point is that a lot of users will not stay here if they need to jump through different identical-communities across several instances or other websites to build their content-flow.

Decenteralized systems in all it’s glory, but I think at some point we will need to address or come up with a solution on how we market niche communities.

In reddit it was so simple to find your communities. Let’s say you grew interest in Balisongs, then you just type r/balisong and there you are. This helps discovery immensly.

Doing this on a lemmy instance will only get you to that instance community. Which means you might have like 10 of these already niche communities spread out around different instances.

Personally I’d think a system where an instance can promote or assign another instance community as the “main” one, with some type of backup feature, would help Lemmy grow.

But I also think that opinion is controversial considering the nature of a decentralized system.

If you want to be radical, use Kelvin. At least it scaled identical to C so it’s easy to comprehend.

Just gonna hijack this and recommend https://www.renshuu.org/ for everybody trying to learn Japanese.

It’s probably the best compaion-app I have found for learning the language.

To be fair, if he said what he wrote here in private, it’d still be extremely bad leadership.

Obviously he should correct them and point out why, but maybe not trash on them entierly.

I agree, run Firefox as your main and then a privacy focused fork of Chromium as your second if you need it for specific website.

Personally I barely ever encounter issues with websites running FF.

On a platform like Spotify I don’t really see the issue here.

Have you ever looked through the other 85% of the content? Excluding finding some obscure hits, most of it is trash.

Unless we want to argue that any art in our current economical system should be of equal value no matter what.

Oh, so you want to make a website where you post personal pictures of youself and post updates of your everyday life, while connecting to your friends? It’ll be really big you say? There’s nothing else on the market lile this? Let’s go!!!

The first thing I do when I am greeted by a customer-service bot is spam it with “I want to talk to a human”, “Forward me to an assistant” and “Let me talk to your master”.

It works in like 2/3 cases.

I think it’s important to distinct what part of the left.

Most of the left on Lemmy? Probably not.

A lot of liberals who align themselves with the US democrats? There was a lot of support until the famous pedo incident.

Not exactly the same, but somebody recently did 1-60 on WoW HC Classic while walking on a treadmill.

I mean it had repeatedly lost money for years, I honestly don’t think anything could have said it. I am not at all defending Musk, I just think the platform was doomed with our without him.

I think he, accurately, determined that it was a sinking ship. He got as many employees to leave as possible and is now trying to get as much money as possible from the service before it dies.

It’s like having a car with 3 punctures and 1 wheel-lock.

I feel like them and a lot of other people are also underestimating the amount of sex trafficed victims that are forced into it here in the west.

I am not entirely sure what you’re getting at.

In computer security the term “hack” and “hacking” is very wide. Trying to access accounts or data that you are meant to be unathorized to use is a hack. Which they clearly are here.

I think most people who have switched sides, who were originally for/split, would today argue that it’s unlikely that Russia would stage another war in the coming years. Looking at how poorly they are performing in Ukraine.

So getting into NATO with the possibility that Erdogan’s demands will have an actual effect on the Swedish laws has not been deemed worth it right now.

I also doubt anybody reasonable would consider some of his demands to be achievable, Turkey in EU today?
