Wow, a whopping 100k from Shopify, that’s awesome!
This reminds me of how upset I was to break my Battlefront CD when I was younger. One of those games you had to enter the CD for to start. Needless to say, that was what started my torrent and crack experience.
Such a great game. The mods and third party maps were awesome. No edition after the first ever lived up to that, especially this new crap they came out with.
Yea, existing extensions get things wrong sometimes. I’m sure this will be the same - especially if sites start changing things to temporarily circumvent. Needs to be an easy way to grab the real URL just in case.
If Google is investing in creating a non-WebKit browser for iOS and given all the heat they are getting for Safari and WebKit, we might see this sooner than later.

I wish people (especially just regular ol’ people, not big names) realized that if they started using Mastodon or BlueSky their engagement would go up tremendously. I’ve had full blown huge threads with all sorts of people on both platforms, even when I had literally just made my account.
On Twitter you’re lucky to even get a like on a post unless it’s some hot take on a political topic.
Yep. I could see people sticking around if there were not viable alternatives. And while those alternatives have indeed been around for a good while, they are very available now. There’s really no excuse now.
Now, while I do think Mastodon is the better platform, I’m curious to see how BlueSky affects Twitter’s user base once it comes out of its “beta”. For all of its faults, it does have the smallest learning curve - if really any at all - when comparing it to Twitter.
We don’t throttle to our company-owned Speedtest servers though so we can disprove you when claiming we are not offering you peak speeds.
Should have turned your phone off during the national alert test.
This is what happens when you increase pricing, add advertising on top of increased pricing, remove your content from competitors and create your own additional platform, all while decreasing the quality and amount of content.
So I’m ignorant here, but what is the spec difference between the supplied iPhone USB-C cable and the one that comes with the newer MacBooks? I never bothered to look, but I did mark the one that came with my MacBook as I assumed it was higher rated than some other cable (although I still just charge with the MagSafe adapter anyway).
The most noticeable thing when I went back to the site with a fresh account (unfortunately there are still a few real niche communities that I want to participate in that refuse to move) I was inundated with a bunch of right wingy content. New subs like “true unpopular opinion” parrot a bunch of shitty views disguised as “conversations”. Lots of racism, homophobia, and other terrible shit now there right in the open on the home feed.
If you’re looking for window tiling and keyboard shortcuts, Yabai and skhd are absolutely amazing. Add sketchybar to the mix and you can create an awesome and customizable alternative to the native Spaces.
This is true, actually. I’ve felt uncomfortable adding something that essentially can create 10s of requests per second to an APIs that have been struggling significantly.
I see though that it’s being done and - although I’m not one of the admins to know - things seem to be fine now.
I don’t think it’s the best idea, given the fragility of things, but we can revisit this.
No that’s fair. You’re right that it isn’t being actively blocked or anything, but Facebook themselves have not launched it because they know the privacy issues are pretty big and they could easily run afoul of the law there.
Obviously not to say they never will launch there, but I’d imagine there’s some significant changes that need to be made before that’s allowed.
Regardless, only time will tell, and I’m sure Facebook won’t lose the opportunity to expand. And like you said, time definitely played a part in this, I’m sure given more time we would have seen a launch all at once.
Yea the fact this cannot even be released in the EU is one of the biggest red flags I have ever seen yet loads of people seem to not care at all. 🤷♂️
I think I got stuck in review hell. I resubmitted a build today.
After reviewing this, I’ve updated the license for Memmy. Frankly had no idea, good idea to let people know like you said and just kindly inform them through GitHub or otherwise.
Memmy dev here. This was one of my thoughts when using Imgur as the image service in the app. Plus, I’ve noticed on the biggest bottlenecks in loading photos is the fact you’re actively trying to load images from various locations, all of which are probably not near your location and don’t have any sort of caching in place.
I’d probably switch from Imgur at some point, maybe one of the ones that you suggested. I know there’s some content that Imgur won’t allow now that people probably do want to share.
Completely agree! Gnome is nice but never been able to move past KDE if I had to pick a full blown DE.
