One of Reddit’s biggest communities is suggesting users move to Discord
Hot take but this is worse than them just staying on Reddit.

The 11-mile long, 600 lbs IMAX print of ‘OPPENHEIMER’
This obsession with the length and weight of the film is such a bizarre marketing strategy.

stop asking for a karma system
Not to mention the karma system on Reddit created some of its most annoying users. Would be terrible to bring it here.

Can confirm. I scroll past blue checks when I read comments and I had run out my post limit in under 20 minutes today.

So wild that 6/10 Americans want universal healthcare and yet it has almost zero support from the people actually in congress.

App Store to require developers to describe why their apps use certain APIs
Reply in thread
I only dislike it in a “death by 1000 cuts” type of way where iOS already has a long list of things that make development more annoying.

Do you think we need a decentralized version of Amazon?
I have zero trust in anything decentralized in relation to money. Would definitely like a central authority to complain to when someone scams me. Implementing it like lemmy would make it impossible to effectively ban scammers and would also make searching for stuff annoying as hell. I already hate how annoying it is to search for things on different instances for this stuff.

Best Mail App - your thoughts
Gonna pop out the controversial opinion here and say I like the default mail app. It’s quick, simple, and does everything I need. The only thing I don’t like is that gmail doesn’t get push mail, but Google did that not Apple.
I hate that unlike iOS, mail does not run in the background on Mac though.

Google raising price of YouTube Premium to $13.99 per month
They emailed me thanking me for being a part of their journey for so long and as a gift they are delaying my rate going up by 3 months. Cool…..

Do you believe Lemmy/Mastodon can become mainstream and fully replace their centralized counterparts?
Lemmy? Maybe. Mastodon? Not a chance.
Lemmy functions perfectly as a Reddit replacement and only adds a mild amount of complexity on top of using Reddit. Mastodon is only similar to Twitter’s use case if you’ve had a few beers and are squinting.

Fun Fact: Apple for some reason still lists the Teletype Adapter on their store, with photos of the iPhone 3GS
Reply in thread
The iPhone 7 and up, it became built into the phone without requiring a specific adapter. I don't know enough about TTY to know if that means you plug it in with lightning, or if the lightning to 3.5mm adapter also includes TTY functionality. :(

Your phone is a portal into a large part of the world. It’s not that odd that the average person would prefer a larger window.
