Meanwhile software devs? We sit around in a comfy meeting room sipping coffee and are occasionally a bit stressed. Sure there's exceptions, but most devs I know have it pretty good while making a shit ton of money

Nothing to do with Trumper, he's right. Just like Trump should go to prison along with anyone who helped him on Jan 6

This is peak meme material

Lemmy users are just delusional in that regard. You can't just switch away from Google, its not the tech that makes in great, its the content. It's the same with messengers, if your friends arent there how useful is that foss messenger really?

Thankfully the only creator I regularly watch that does non-educational videos uploads them on their own website. For everything else nebula actually is an alternative, although I'm not subscribed to it at the moment

Google will try everything in their power to stop us from blocking their ads. It's their main source of revenue, you don't have to be a genius to see why they don't like ad blockers

Wow the fact that this is considered good is depressing

I hope it's illegal in the EU. Getting fined for a couple billions would put that piece of trash CEO in his place lol

You would have to support each service separately, because they all work differently.

What connects Lemmy, Mastodon and other fediverse services is the ActivityPub protocol, that's the standardized communication protocol that makes everything run. The individual instances run different software that offer entirely different APIs (application programming interface; basically the language that defines how an app talks to a service) so in order to support Mastodon, Lemmy and Kbin, an app must explicitly implement the APIs for those three services.

So an app that generally just supports every service that will be added to the fediverse in the future can't be made unless we agree on some form of standard API, which we haven't (yet) and which may not even be feasable, because different services have much different capabilities.

A fediverse discord clone would offer completely different data structures and functionality than Lemmy, so an app that magically just works with both isn't possible to make.

How deranged does a kid need to be for the system to keep a very close eye on them? Seriously that kid is probably a psychopath who's gonna kill more people if nobody prevents him from doing so

Spanish Catholics Conservatives everywhere

The US definitely do not have a great democracy, if you can even call it that

Was haltet ihr davon?

Abstand

Spotify is losing money, they gain nothing by having free users, if they convert some people to paying customers it's worth it for them. You can't expect to listen to music for free when license holders charge ridiculous fees.

US defaultism

Happy Munich noises. Bigger than central park too 😉

German even has a neutral gender because two aren't enough of a headache lol

War klar dass es so kommt. Dass die Abwanderung auf Lemmy jetzt nicht das Ende von Reddit sein wird ist glaube ich auch klar, aber darum gehts ja auch nicht. Jeder der hier ist hat eine Scheißplattform gegen eine bessere eingetauscht, und ob Reddit überlebt oder nicht ist mir persönlich ziemlich wurst

The handle is different

oddly boost still works for me right now

Please tell me you're gonna vote anyways
