About half of the stuff on Lemmy is just ‘what i hate about Reddit’

It’s been out for less than ten days and it already has more than 35x the number of total users as Mastodon. It might not be for us, but saying that no one would want to use it is just sour grapes.

Showerthought: This post is just an opportunity for users with inappropriate usernames to show them off.

No. His father was an amateur dancer.

Linus has the most unique programming career ever. It’s good for us that he became the impartial foul-mouthed emperor of fat penguins. If he were still great at programming but not so good at leading, i wonder what would have happened to Linux.

I read somewhere on Lemmy that ich_iel deliberately uses wrong words four the lulz. So be careful or you’ll be learning bad grammar. Youse diggitty?

A screenshot/link or any other evidence would add credibility to this post.

I mean, he had a great thing with Apollo but I don’t think he’d want to keep doing it, especially for a much smaller platform like ours. We also have lots of great homegrown apps inspired by Apollo. I think it’s time for the torch to pass to the next generation of developers. Christian will probably do other great things.

Interesting read. I was genuinely surprised to read that ChromeOS has 4%+ desktop market share. It’s not popular at all where I am from. I’ve never ever seen one in person.

The Google Play Store uses a technique called delta patching to calculate the diff server side and avoid transferring parts of the app that haven’t changed since your original installation.

This is understandably not perfect because they want to avoid load on their servers and also the extra processing on your device to “unpack” it. So what you have is a happy medium between sending the entire app again and sending strictly the diff.

Maybe it’ll finally be the year of the Linux desktop.

That’s exactly how we got Javascript on the backend in the first place. I remember when this was the new “weird” thing.

Maybe failing upwards was a zero interest rate phenomenon.

It doesn’t help if the journalists don’t mention the Fediverse as an alternative. People will move to Discord, Facebook, Threads, or Instagram because they aren’t aware. 3 out of those 4 are owned by Meta.

It used to be this social media site where you could write these notes that were short enough for blue birds to carry around to everyone.

React and Vue already have lots of libraries, components, and know-how. You can also move from CSR to SSR and back depending on your requirements.

What do you mean “like brave”?
