Exactly, my wife mentioned just last week that she doesn’t like her AirPod 3’s due to the fit, and that she’s considering asking for a new pair of 2’s this Christmas instead. Glad to hear they might be going back on that design change, for her sake.
Oh, fantastic! Glad you used some of the quiet time to get some work done without us all breathing down your neck lol.
I’ve still been kicking around on TestFlight, both out of laziness in not wanting to test and find something else, and hopes you might return, so this is wonderful news!
Man, one time I ended up volunteering at a weekend youth event, and this other leader they put me in a room with was friends with my wife on Facebook, from college or something, but I’d never met him. Weirdest conversation of my life:
“So, how was your honeymoon in city?” “Oh, really nice. What was your name again?”
I imagine that’s what this horror house would feel like. Was a nice guy, honestly. I’ve since forgotten his name again.
Agreed, I thought mentioning those statistics was a tasteful way of addressing that conversation as best as possible in a YouTube video, and those “people will be fired” comments felt like a clear commitment to rooting out and going as far as firing anyone creating that kind of environment.
The amount of “Linus didn’t even talk about” in this thread is crazy to me, just feels like bad reading comprehension when he directly addressed most of the conversation (HR, work hours and environment, etc) and even committed to firing people in a video his staff will all be watching.
Dang, this just makes me impressed at what you’ve managed on your first outing with React Native. You’ve got impressive design sensibilities to get so much right that you’re still one of the best apps out there.
Hopeful this rewrite gives you the technical foundation you’ve been looking for, so that this can continue building into the best app it can be!
Yeah, this certainly raises to mind the times I’ve heard them discuss on WAN Show how employees have inquired about reducing the release schedule, and how that’s not considered a real option. That decision has costs…
Frankly, this whole situation boils down to exactly what I expected. LTT has always produced content at an insane velocity, and issues like these are the inevitable results. Miscommunications, errors that need to be tidied up, and compromises such as that water block video not being redone with the proper setup. LTT doesn’t have the ability to reverse course on an emergency like that, they’re already at breakneck pace so that they can’t make a change of that scope without missing deadlines. If it wasn’t this, it would’ve been something else.
Is that evil? I don’t know. It’s the business strategy they’ve gone with, and much of why they’re in the position they are. An LTT that put out half the videos they do may have never made it to this position. This is a good wake up call as to the costs of that kind of operation, and it’s up to you how you choose to react to this.
Exactly the mistake threads just made, trying to capitalize on twitter’s rate limiting fiasco. The “general public” is extremely fickle, and Reddit will give us more opportunities.
Both of those videos were so good, actually. Incredible timing that they came out side by side lol
Yeah, I respect that. Actually really liked the formatting of this post, with the little summary, and opening the discussion. Much better than having some bot just dump the link here for every video!
That’s actually part of why I chose to drop the first comment, hopefully these can be hopping with some good engagement going forward. I think like many people, I often have thoughts or want to discuss these, but YT comments are just a nightmare if you want to do anything more than skim them.
Thought this was a really weird video for the main channel. Do they not have some kind of car channel at this point?
Anyway, appreciate they want to try new things, but this wasn’t for me personally.
I also feel like a lot of the value of chronological is lost if I think it’s algorithmic recommendations. If I don’t know I’m browsing the latest? I’ll likely just think the algorithm is serving up some garbage. Especially somewhere like Facebook, where people haven’t really been curating their feed for years, just… following whoever to be polite and letting the algorithm take care of it.
Yeah, I think lots of people had FOMO about missing updates whenever the App Store version dropped, and mistook the stability of “preparing for release” as what the stability would be long term.
Makes sense, and I think you’ve got the right idea. The development pace has been incredible, but Memmy for iPhone can still get better, and should, as that’s the primary customer base.
I’d say, once Memmy is excellent, supports all different kinds of sites and image viewers, handles different kinds of content, is super accessible, has themes, filters, settings, and just generally everything you’d reasonably want to build, then maybe take your time and use the tools Apple provides to give a great iPad experience. Then once that’s done and battle tested, maybe even a great Mac experience.
iPad, and hell I believe even MacOS on M1 if you allow it, can both use the iOS version until then.
TestFlight is beta. Faster, more frequent updates, with a higher chance of receiving a broken update. Everything that comes to beta will go to the stable version eventually, once it’s polished and cleaned up.
If you like living on the cutting edge a little bit, and giving feedback to the developer, stick with TestFlight. If you’d prefer a more stable experience, and get really annoyed by bugs or issues, go with the App Store version.
Thank you! I’ve just been browsing with NSFW turned off, but: A) I actually would rather turn on the blur function if there wasn’t literal porn throughout the “all” feed. B) A bunch of mild soft core stuff like “pretty women” and “celebs” gets through anyway.
Can’t believe it never occurred to me to use the block button to shape the all feed.
TL;DR: People like searching for answers to their question from Reddit, since it’s got upvotes and a lot of subreddit answers to niche opinion questions. Reddit is one of the most popular search keywords, and is unreliable right now.
Also recaps several other recent Reddit headlines, which I’m sure you’ve seen if you’re hanging out in this subreddit.
Don’t love the framing of this paragraph from TechCrunch. It’s not that they’re charging for the API. That’s understandable and obvious, and we all wanted the platform to survive. I’ll be happy to volunteer to contribute to lemmy development/server costs/app development one day. It’s that they’re grossly overcharging for the API to such an extreme degree that paid subscriptions to third party apps actually lose money.
In April, Reddit announced its plans to start charging developers to access data through its API. The move was obvious — to restrict third parties from accessing Reddit data that can help build text-generating machine learning models such as OpenAI’s GPT 4. Developers building apps and bots to assist people using Reddit and researchers who wish to study the platform for noncommercial purchases were among the few exceptions. However, as a result, third-party apps, including popular Reddit client Apollo, found it difficult to pay for those charges and decided to go offline. Various popular subreddit moderators came in support of those apps and developers and started protesting against the API pricing move.
Straight up looks like something mashed together in Garry’s mod.
For sure, valid to fear the enshittification of steam. But they aren’t killing proton. Maybe ignoring proton at worst. But Steam has profit motivations for not being reliant on Windows, which has actively been trying to supplant them with the Windows Store for years.
As another separate, profit-motivated company, with a gaming division and a lot to gain from eating Steam’s lunch, Microsoft is not Steam’s friend. Proton is a critical bargaining tool for them, and not having to include windows licenses for devices like the Steam Deck helps their costs too.
