  • It seems much better now, thank you :) Is it still on 0.19 or did it get reverted back to 0.18?

  • I‘m already using voyager. I’m pretty sure it’s not the app that’s slow, but the Lemmy server. Doesn’t matter which app you’re using.

  • Probably was too soon to upgrade then, compared to Lemmy.world, which is still on 0.18, it’s day and night.

  • I think you got the target audience wrong, this isn’t a PC gaming headset. It doesn’t even have or support VR controllers.

    This is more of an iPad replacement, second screen, productivity and consumption device. And it’s going to be the first one that actually has a big library of regular apps from the very start. Arguably the bigger market, not just for gamers.

  • It’s expensive (and too expensive for me), but if you put it next to a MacBook Pro with a few upgrades it’s the same price and those get bought without thinking about it.

    To become more mainstream it definitely has to be cheaper, but there’s something bothering me about how all the other prices are acceptable.

    MacBooks are more of a working device and the upgrades are optional, the starting price is cheaper, I know. Still, these price points aren’t unheard of for Apple.

  • That bug has been there since the release of custom icons and it’s never been fixed by Apple. Every app has that issue, it’s annoying.

  • I was speaking in a general sense, but I’m glad you figured it all out.

  • I don’t see how a purely magnetic watch band attachment could work for a watch, but I guess we’ll see. Would definitely be a shame to loose band compatibility.

    Flipboard is pivoting to ActivityPub and the fediverse

  • Of course cooperate social media isn’t the only harmful social media, if anything it might be the most civil one for its scale, simply because they’re trying to sell ads next to the content so the content can’t be complete garbage. They also have a bunch of other incentives that ultimately make it a shit experience for everyone, but there is an incentive to moderate.

    Something to remember is that it isn’t the company producing the harmful content. It’s people.

  • While that’s true, I’m not sure how many people are using Mastodon that way and if that’s actually the main concern. In the end it still is meant to be a public platform. Not on the same level of "private messages and photos" where most people would probably be very concerned.

  • I occasionally feel the same way. However, I don’t think it’s a big issue to select the community first and then post to it instead of creating a post and selecting the community after. It’s the same amount of steps either way.

  • Look at the fediverse’s monthly active users, it’s declining. There’s a pretty solid wall of friction when trying to participate and the vast majority of people won’t ever be a part of it in its current state. There’s no upward tend here and I doubt that it’s ever going to be a real danger for meta.

  • I think Bluesky is even smaller. It probably could’ve been a Twitter competitor before threads came around.

  • 100% agree, I think most reactions here are blown way out of proportion even though I can relate to the general "fuck meta" attitude.

  • What communities are you talking about specifically? I tried but I haven’t yet found a list of those that defederated preemptively. I can’t imagine it’s the majority of instances/users.

  • I have the same question. Lemmy and Mastodon are both public and as of yet, no one was able to tell me what "privacy" actually looks like for data in that context. Other than the fact that Meta will destroy it. It’s public, anyone can access it already.

  • Active users went down, though. I don’t think mastodon is a big competitor for Meta, Twitter and TikTok are.

  • It sounds a bit sarcastic, not sure if you mean it that way. One question: what privacy are you talking about with services that are meant to be entirely open? App analytics?
