That's too bad. I run a VPN on my phone 24/7, literally set to the country I live in, it's just for privacy/security. Incredibly annoying that now the F1 app will be obnoxious about that.
Hazzard
Yeah, I think lots of people had FOMO about missing updates whenever the App Store version dropped, and mistook the stability of "preparing for release" as what the stability would be long term.
Darn, sounds like this is on PC. For ages, I've wanted them to give us additional inputs that I can map in games that support controller remapping, like DOOM or Forza. But no, even with a button set to Shift, doubling the inputs available despite already having more inputs than can actually be mapped, you don't get to do any of that.
Yeah man, same boat. I actually do have NSFW disabled, but I've still blocked at least a dozen or two lemmynsfw communities for actresses, celebs, gentlemenboners, ladyboners, ladyladyboners, just a metric ton of SFW porn communities.
Would make things so much easier if I could outright block the instance, and heck, maybe I'd even turn on NSFW in that case.
Disturbing, and I hate it. No thanks!
Not ok with anything that normalizes giving companies access to my camera feed for basic actions. No matter how well intentioned.
Eh, that's the church as an institution. I mean religion in the more abstract sense. Political leanings becoming tied to a religious stance has become ridiculous, and has watered down Christianity quite a lot, to the point where even Trump gets to go pray once a year and call himself the Christian vote. It's also been remarkably divisive, as naturally, a lot of Christians aren't that, and hot political debates somehow become religious debates.
Tying religion to politics has allowed politics to slowly pull that horse further and further, to the point where "Christianity" now means southern fundamentalism to a lot, maybe even most, people. I think without political influence, we'd be a lot closer today to how Christianity started, and is meant to look.
Even as a Christian myself, I agree with you. Separation of Church and State. Politics mixing with religion has been terrible for both.
My money is on this one. Once we find a more sustainable way to get meat, and that scales to the globe, whatever that method is, I think the idea of keeping animals only to kill then will quickly be viewed as abhorrent.
Likely won't be as quick as within 20 years, however. Lots of companies currently making a fortune selling meat who will stand in the way of that.
Yeah, I've realized I mostly want "social media" as a place to create discussions. For that, honestly, the smaller community size is perfect.
I find massive communities have a way of devolving into hive minds. Once you reach a critical mass of people who think one thing, any comment to the contrary is just... obliterated, whether by an exhausting amount of argument, or downvotes. And then it just becomes known that that's the opinion of the community, and people stop even bringing it up. At least that's my theory on how it happens.
Over here, with a smaller community size, I'm finding a lot more genuine conversation, no matter the topic. It's awesome. And I'm still finding Lemmy large enough to bring me interesting links and memes to talk about.
Makes sense, and I think you've got the right idea. The development pace has been incredible, but Memmy for iPhone can still get better, and should, as that's the primary customer base.
I'd say, once Memmy is excellent, supports all different kinds of sites and image viewers, handles different kinds of content, is super accessible, has themes, filters, settings, and just generally everything you'd reasonably want to build, then maybe take your time and use the tools Apple provides to give a great iPad experience. Then once that's done and battle tested, maybe even a great Mac experience.
iPad, and hell I believe even MacOS on M1 if you allow it, can both use the iOS version until then.
TestFlight is beta. Faster, more frequent updates, with a higher chance of receiving a broken update. Everything that comes to beta will go to the stable version eventually, once it's polished and cleaned up.
If you like living on the cutting edge a little bit, and giving feedback to the developer, stick with TestFlight. If you'd prefer a more stable experience, and get really annoyed by bugs or issues, go with the App Store version.
Whoops
Well, happy you're here!
