yeah nah I agree

Lemmy still has its flaws at times, nowhere is perfect or fills the hole other spaces online that have gone shit have left

I can at least take solace in knowing that there are like, actual people here. even if some of them suck sometimes

I always love these shitty “replace the enter key on a keyboard” news thumbnails. Like, ah shit, accidentally hit the “Domain Name Registration” button on my keyboard.

The community can mostly feel like it was skimmed off the top layer of ornery “erm, aktually” types from Reddit. The etiquette here is what you would expect from that. The days of “remembering the human” are dead and buried.

Like all places online, people and sub-communities vary, but that’s mostly the vibe I get whenever browsing the comments of just about anything that hits my instance’s All page.

I’ll take it any day over dealing with Reddit Inc’s chicanery, I guess.

You can tell it’s made the rounds because it has a reaction image nearly the size of the image itself shoved onto the bottom superfluously

Thank you. I could kiss you like a mother.

Alright, is there some super-populated center for enthusiast nerds who make Androids less 1984 and shit? Like, the fdroid sub or something? I’m still on the ol’ Tim Cooker but when this thing croaks I’m switching teams. I don’t need Google getting sloppy seconds, though.

I mean, feels like everyone has a phone these days. Surely some niche sect of Internet nerds has a cutting edge solution for this shit.

Is it just GrapheneOS with FDroid apps? What about Google Play Store apps, can I use those without getting fucked? Can I retain nearly every stock feature on an Android without selling my soul to Google? Which Android phone should I buy if I want things to run smoothly with the modifications I need to make? (Are those new touch flip-phones on the menu? Are they more durable now? I fantasize about DS emulation, and slapping my phone together to hang up on people. I just remember hearing all about the highly scratch-able screens and hinge problems.)

I feel like people have gotten Stockholm syndrome from phones with new generations every year.

Current hardware still works fine. If you have frame troubles, lower settings and mess with your battery/performance profiles.

Do not solve the problem by offering to give companies another 500 dollars.

Could always hire an impersonator who does a good impression of said politician. Wouldn’t have to worry about restrictions then.
