Haven’t had this happen with Sync though. I guess proprietary ad-supported clients have the budget to make QoL improvements faster. Although, I do love Voyager as well!

People always tend to bounce back to the bigger platform.

How I like to deal with this is to use two or more platforms of the same kind.

Occasionally open Reddit, and occasionally Lemmy. Occasionally checking Fedi, and occasionally going on Twitter.

It may be disorienting at first, but it’s better to get used to going on many websites than sticking to just two.

Gestures aren’t very convenient if I’m watching videos in full screen mode or when typing on the keyboard. There are many problems with gesture nav in Android, let alone MIUI. It’s not worth keeping the default launcher for this.

There’s a difference between liberal left (which is what a majority of rational, secular people belive in), honest far-left, which is about socialist economics, eat the rich, BLM/anti-racism, anti-cop, gender abolition, human rights, actual anti-colonialism etc. and the kind of “far-left” that is “anti-west”, which isn’t really about honestly discussing these issues, but rather about dividing people, being contrarian to established things that work and make sense, and trying to paint everyone who disagrees even a tiny bit as the scum of humanity. On the other hand, any defederation further enlarges the rift between communities and makes being informed on what others think more cumbersome. Also, they think Beehaw, a place that is supposed to be inclusive, is fascist? I am not sure how it is. It’s mostly left and liberal, really.

I’m in love! Smooth, modern, and simple. One thing to note - the “hue” option for the theme in the settings is not very obvious at first or comfortable. We need some kind of visible color pallete or some squares with color options.

Also, Ctrl+Enter should allow me to post my reply immediately, but it doesn’t.

Stremio has been useless until I got fiber internet. Now it’s my preferred way to watch stuff.

Using two different browsers should be the norm imo. One for comfort, performance and compatibility, like Chrome, Edge or Opera, and the other one for privacy, like Firefox, UGC, Tor, DDG, etc.

I already replaced my search engine, my social media and my Reddit.

Do you want me to replace my email too, Google?

The two things that matter when choosing a distro - package managers and desktop environment/window manager. And even then, universal package managers like Flatpak, Snap and AppImage can provide a substitute for the package managers.

Used Mastodon for a bit a few years ago, but it wasn’t popular enough so I didn’t get much out of it at the time. Now, I basically prefer Mastodon and Calckey to Twitter, unless I want to see what my Twitter mutuals are doing, most of which are artists.

I pretty much replaced Reddit with Lemmy, and might even delete my Reddit account at some point. I think I’m not visiting this website often enough, but that’s because it’s not as tantalizing as Reddit, especially on web. But I do want to visit this place more often. I don’t want to miss out on what’s happening.

Second that. Wefwef is the best PWA-type web app in the world in my opinion. It’s convenient, easy to learn, and it looks really nice and modern. Plus, it’s incredibly stable.

Threads when isolated from this community: GOOD.

Threads when federated with this community: NOT GOOD.

It is your choice whether to use it or not. The Fediverse is like the Linux of social media, I like it more here and on other fedi apps than on the corporate social media.

Or for web-based clients there’s Piped and Invidious.

Revanced is pretty glitchy as well. Anything that uses an old APK of YouTube as its base will have issues.

It’s faster now, and we finally have buttons for rich text features! Congratulations!

Update: upvotes are a bit broken and weird right now, I need to refresh every time to see that I upvoted. But that’s really the only issue I see right now.

I’d argue it will become like Facebook, with the younger and more intelligent crowd leaving the site.

How about downvoting?

Lemmy will be like what LibreOffice was to OpenOffice. I can feel it.
