I think they’re a bit damned if they do, damned if they don’t, given a lot of users are clamouring for these features however the TestFlight is full so new users that want to be on the bleeding edge can’t get in.

There was talk about removing test flight users that weren’t actively using the app, unsure if they’ve pursued that and if that’s the way forward, but it may be a short term fix if it is available.

I’m struggling to find where I heard about this, but if you post to Twitter (or I guess it’s X now) and tag @Sync, they should get back in touch with you and offer you a bonus 10GB for the positive outreach.

Since I don’t know about where I heard about the offer originally, the next best thing might be my post which Sync responded to as evidence of the bonus. Along with one or two other bonuses which one may have been a referral, I’m at 17GB on the free account which is pretty decent, and certainly not as burdensome as the referral process one has to go through with Dropbox to grow the free tier there.

They’re a great service from the time I’ve spent with it and worth a go.

Also glad to see Lewis on top, and Lando right up there again.

Likewise good to see Dan do about as well as one could ask for with his car in those conditions.

Still not an amazing showing, but Perez making Q3 and breaking that drought is also good to see after such a terrible Friday.

Yeah I’ve had it. Noticed it under 0.4 consistently and believe I saw it just a bit earlier with 0.5 also.

Using the Dracula and Light theme set to match the OS current dark/light mode.

Their staff posted on their Reddit channels that it’s a limitation of their billing system, I believe in relation to having two different services at once. They said they’re working on updating the billing system to support this but I don’t recall an ETA.

I think you’d have to create a second account currently, but then you may lose access to the introductory pricing to Proton Pass if later you wanted to move back.

Thank you for the update and all the hard work going into the app. So crazy to think we’re calling it a slow week when it’s still only been days since the latest update.

Primarily Memmy for iOS.

Voyager is nice too though on iOS. Connect on Android is nice also.

Discord links not working for me right now, so might add the feedback here for now.

Just tried the Bean Lemmy client and was immediately struck by the bottom and top bars having a slight level of transparency of them which causes feed content to appear behind the bars very subtly. It’s a design trait that Apple uses throughout iOS/MacOS and Id like to see it in Memmy given Apple native apps do it.

I do acknowledge transparency is something many people find tacky, so suggesting maybe it could be a toggle under the theme settings to have the bottom and top navigation bars have a slight transparency, along with other relevant controls. That way people can enable or disable it based on what they like and how they’re theming the app.

I think the key question is to ask what about Googles solution is driving them to look elsewhere. Once that’s known it’s possible to work out if NextCloud deployed in house or via a partner is the right way forward, or if another cloud offering might be more suitable.

If those were my requirements then I’d be looking at Synology.

Currently using a Windows PC with Stablebit Drive Pool to pool about 10HDDs into one consolidated pool. Nice way to get a stack of storage and to repurpose an old PC I already had, but for a low effort option Synology would be my pick based on all the reports I’ve heard about it being a top notch option. My PC is fine but when things break you need to be able to troubleshoot a Windows setup, which is fine but maybe not for “mum and dad”.

Just pick a NAS from them that does what you need. Whenever I look at them it seems to be about determine how many drives you need and whether you want a high performance one (to run Plex servers and the like) or a low spec one that just does storage and some less intensive stuff.

Of the three, probably B.

I much prefer the current icon but to all three as the colour really pops on that one. I was very pleasantly surprised when that icon popped up on my device.

I like the new placement myself, but agree it’d be hard to know to long press the button if you didn’t read about it prior.

I think adding something to the Settings -> Accounts section would make sense as a secondary, more visible, option. Could show the active account and allow you to switch from there. Could also have some text detailing the “hold profile” option to help train users.
