Honestly this is just what natural food tastes like when not filled with sugar. It takes a little getting used to if you are normally having processed stuff.

Of course you could just write on a sticker with a pen, but where's the fun in that!

By far the best Lemmy app. Really reminiscent of Relay for Reddit, which coincidentally was by far the best Reddit app IMHO.

Keep up the awesome work!

Agreed, it's like encouraging commenting without reading the article

I'm very happy with fastmail for a similar use case to OP. Definitely a strong +1 fron me!

Wow didn't know this existed - thanks!

Haha yeh. How is Phoenix Wright? It's courtroom drama no? Not too intense?

Cats need to scratch to maintain their nails. If you don't provide them with something you're happy with them scratching then get ready for scratched furniture

The tech hiring market is most definitely NOT hot right now. It's the worst it's been since the 2008 crisis aftermath.

Obviously there are still things out there but companies are hiring less and the market is flooded with big tech layoffs. Companies are being flooded with applications for available roles.

Startups are also struggling to raise which means there are less new jobs in startups too.

I picked up Warhammer for the same reasons and have been loving it! I'm not into the gaming side, I just enjoy building the models and painting them.

We've seen similar embrace, extend, extinguish with protocols before. It reminds me of XMPP, which used to be the defacto chat protocol and once upon a time you could use self-hosted providers to chat directly with people on things like Google Talk. Obviously once enough people were on Google Talk, they switched the protocol to a propriety protocol and XMPP basically died.

The lesson is that if you want a protocol to be resilient then you want to avoid corporations having a majority user share on it.

Thanks, I'd been meaning to check out Professor Layton actually! It looks like the exact kind of thing I'm looking for.

Agreed on all those features! Would be awesome to get in-app video playing like Relay had too

Yeah? I always assumed it would mostly be hardcore player-created levels. Is that not what it's like?

I have over a decade of experience in software engineering and am struggling to find a new job at the moment. Every other time I've looked in the past it's been way easier.

Obviously I could have a job if I wanted, but if you don't want to compromise on role/pay then things are really tough at the moment.

To be fair I don't think that can be entirely prescribed to drop in user base; the internet ad market in general is absolutely tanking at the moment.

People really seem to be sleeping on Thunder. For me it's by far the slickest of all the Lemmy apps I've tried.

Yeah I was a Relay user too and Thunder is definitely the Lemmy app that comes closest to recreating that experience.
