Oh yeah you’re right we should just not even bother voting and let the right wing win.

Hopefully Tubular updates soon too

This has been my weekly reminder that there are people who use Bing. Harrowing.

Isn’t it easier to just jump the turnstiles?

Downvotes don’t work on Beehaw

TempleOS’s implementation is cooler though

During these formative years of the Web, web pages could only be static, lacking the capability for dynamic behavior after the page was loaded in the browser.

And it was better. Frankly, http was a mistake, humanity would be healthier and happier if we stopped at gopher.

Crypto will never be a thing. We’ll be in a Star Trek style post-economy future where the concept of money is worthless before crypto will ever be a viable alternative to fiat currency, at least for anything aside from buying drugs online from dudes with roman statue avatars who talk like anime villains.

Not a single solid reason given

Well not to you, but that doesn’t mean much considering you think spyware is fine as long as it’s opt-in (and that being a furry is equivalent in severity to being homophobic, wtf). The fact that you think this article is bad is basically a ringing endorsement.

The fact that you’re able to think that is all I need to hear, you’re officially beyond my power to help. Good luck, you’re going to need it.

Is this a studied effort to miss my point, or are you just like this?

Infinity was originally a Reddit app that has been forked. This came up more than once:

“This is intended”.

Maybe that’s different now, but normal people don’t pay attention to feature upgrades on open source projects that they don’t use, and the fact that this was intended behavior led me to believe there was no particular reason it would ever change, especially since it still hadn’t when I last used the app some time after the dev commented in the second screenshot.

It was like that because of a deliberate design choice that enjoyed widespread support

Too bad Infinity has that weird fixation on not marking posts as read persistently, it would be great if not for that.

It’s become increasingly clear that Steve and his cronies are desperately trying to get Reddit to its IPO with value intact so they can cash out and leave someone else holding the bag. As I’ve said elsewhere, I wouldn’t be surprised if he and others end up shorting Reddit.

Lemmy has been having some issues lately where responses aren’t going to the thread the submitter actually clicked on

Steve has very little agency over business decisions at this point, he’s more of a quasi-independent mouthpiece for his investors.

They’re lying. Fish swim, birds fly, sun shines, Reddit lies.

I never really cared for Infinity. Every FOSS app has one strange idiosyncrasy that the developer is extremely stubborn about and won’t compromise on: for example, weather app Wx is perfect but for the fact that the developer refuses to incorporate location services. With Infinity, it was the fact that the app didn’t store the read/unread state of posts persistently, and because the app had an option to hide read posts, the dev just wontfixed it and called it a day. Some people had no issue with that but for me it was unusable.
