Well apparently enough people still like it to downvote me lol
I second this. They’re trying so hard to be inoffensive it’s eroding the satirical stereotypes that every character is supposed to be. It’s a hollow shell of what it once was.
I didn’t buy a pixel 4 because it was Google’s first attempt at face unlock. Decided to spice things up and get an iPhone for a change. FaceID is fanfuckingtadtic and I’m sad that my pixel 7 doesn’t have proper face unlock.
Imo: rear mounted fingerprint sensor > proper face unlock > under screen fingerprint.
People were far more upset at the one time fee to remove ads being 30$. The monthly subscriptions include extra features. I used sync with an adblock so I never saw the ads anyway. I wouldn’t have seen them on boost either but it’s the principle behind it.
I’ve legit already “boosted the rocket” in Boost for Lemmy. My issue with Sync was the fucking audacity to ask for 30$. My google opinion rewards will slowly funnel their way into rocket fuel out of mere respect for him being humble.
Oh BEYOND out of their minds. Sync is certainly a great app. I was a Boost user on Reddit, had that labour of love feel to it.
After the astronomical pricing debacle with Sync for Lemmy… I instantly bought Boost ad free! Thanks @rmayayo@lemmy.world <3 Loved Boost for Reddit and I’m excited to keep using your app for Lemmy!
The Lemmy userbase is so small by comparison to reddit. I don’t like subscriptions or ads but my god man’s gotta eat. People get butthurt way too easily over this stuff.
Better yet, Lemmy should get the much asked for ability to filter out keywords from our feeds. Musk, Twitter and reddit would be blocked immediately. I’m so sick of them.
Really nice hardware, inexcusably bad software.
Mmmmmmmmm, EAT. THE. RICH.
B b b but… Think of the poor poor millionaires and billionaires :(
I would add that in addition to this, the community could spool up another instance in a game of cat an mouse should anyone ever TRY to stop it. As the saying goes: piracy is like hydra, you cut one head off and two grow back.
This damn near brought a tear to my eye. I no longer miss reddit at all.
On pixel phones, the squeeze for Google assistant feature. I used it all the time on my old pixel 2xl.
Enter.
“NOPE”

I agree with almost everything you said. I’m not referring to services like Netflix as owning. More specifically the recent debacle with Sony removing access to PURCHASED content. I would happily buy my movies and TV shows on something like Google play movies or Apple TV. My issue is I can’t trust any of these corps not to pull the rug out from under me. Their track record says they will. It’s a question of when not if. We need a streaming equivalent of Spotify for TV and movies. Obviously it would be much more expensive than Spotify, but I would happily pay for the convenience of having anything I want as much as I want on one platform/interface. Streaming sucks right now where libraries are spread across platforms with varying interfaces, bitrate etc. shit just sucks lol
