Just tried it out with my proton account. Looks great! It's very simple, but I also like that about it. And of course being private is wonderful.

I remember a glorious time when Songza existed. It was amazing and I used it every single day. Then the death march began as it was "acquired" by Satan. Satan let it live on for a short while, but after that it "sunsetted" (or whatever other idiotic word they used back then) and Satan killed it.

Oh songza, how I loved thee.

700 years worth of compute to do about an hour of gaming that I just did on my pc at home in realtime ... damn.

Did I math it right? I was averaging about 100 fps in hogwarts for about an hour.

Been using standardnotes for years and absolutely love it. My fav is the quick note-type changer. Can go from base text only to markup to checklist etc so easy.

I mean I guess that could be right, but in the end this scenario also spells doom for the company. There is no way that reddit continues to stay relevant as a meaningful place in the future. It'll be relegated to the garbage dump where yahoo and digg and tumblr somehow still exist in zombie fashion. Sad.

I was really surprised recently when I was searching for some help with a mod for a videogame and a result popped up on my duckduckgo search page for a thread on reddit about it, so I clicked it and BAM: "error, this subreddit has not been reviewed, so it is not possible to view it. Either use the app or go to home page" ......... wtf? I mean, this basically destroys the entire site right? I was 100% unable to view whatever content had been posted in that subreddit. So I just closed it and went somewhere else. I don't see how reddit can even continue to exist if they don't allow people to view the site. How did this happen?

OMG that'd be hilarious. Also don't even say a word to anyone, just have an editor trim that 3 second scene from IM2 and replace it on the disney+ streaming service with this new version.

For a lot of users it’s also about the image quality. A lot of group chats are used to share family photos, or friends parties, or vacations, etc… and inside an iMessage the photos all look great. High quality, shareable etc. Videos looks great and stream just fine. But once any member adds any non iPhone user the group chat gets changed to green and now all the sudden all the photos are grainy extreme low quality, basically not even viewable and videos won’t even share at all. So then people get pissed at the green person and just start a new chat without that person. It sucks.

Time to sail the high seas!

and recently the AI written garbage "gamer" websites have become a problem as well. You can tell instantly that some ai just collected and regurgitated a bunch of text that doesn't even make sense.

Now I pretty much stick just to the fan created wikis. Stuff like bg3.wiki and uesp.net

Is this thread a secret marketing ploy?!?!? Now I want some delicious fake apple cereal!
