I see this upcoming election will be the final one. Nice work.

Oh cool, thanks. I have friends in Texas and they make it sound like it could never happen.

Snowballs chance unfortunately. I understand getting a Democrat to win in Texas is effectively impossible.

Very cute! The grooming must be a task.

How do we know this post isn’t fake? Perhaps it’s all part of the ruse.

Is there a problem upvoting on other instances? I’ve never noticed it not working.

Even more, make it more like a backup feature that’s opt out not opt in. Thus, when a server goes away, the user still has their community list to import somewhere else.

This might be the wrong place for this question, but I have heard criticism that real rust programs contain lots of unsafe code. Is this true?

Sounds like they lucked out into an awesome job with no real work required.

This sounds like a bug to me. At a minimum, it should be renamed to local subscribers rather than imply that it’s the total count.

This is definitely a sink-or-swim moment for Lemmy. If this is going to work, this is the chance. Twitter and Reddit are imploding. Users have a reason to try something new and are willing to deal with young, buggy platforms because it’s better than the alternative and they needed an Internet home. My upvote taking ten seconds to register is itself the knife’s edge of creation, a new birth.

Just not using the app is better than using the app.

So often I’ve pulled up my phone while it’s connected just to try looking up a destination while I’m parked. Being forced to use only the car interface for Maps while plugged in has always been awkward.

Shame that my single USB port that supports Auto is wearing out! Soon I’ll be reduced to Bluetooth only, and maybe a mount for the phone to keep the screen in arm’s reach without having to look away from the road.

But it’s Unix-like!

Uses a Linux VM for all the assignments anyway.

I have a love/hate relationship with desktop web apps on Linux. They are a great blessing in some ways because I get to run apps that just wouldn’t be available to me otherwise because Linux typically isn’t a priority for consumer-focused services. Often support exists as a convenient bonus because it came with the web app platform choice.

On the other hand, you get a web app, which looks nice (hopefully) but gobbles down your resources.

Underrated comment. I picked it because I had no idea what I was doing and it sounded all-encompassing and I wanted access to everything. I didn’t even know what an instance was. I just picked it because it sounded like a good guess to get access to all of Lemmy.

It’s been said to death but at heart, I’ve always felt that when it comes to piracy, it’s a service issue, not a cost issue.

Except for you Adobe. That’s a cost issue.

Running Connect for Lemmy here on Android. It seems nice and minimalist. I was a little dissuaded from trying Jerboa with some of the negative reviews.
