The headline is pretty negative but the actual article is a pretty insightful look at the behind-the-scenes of the demo and how they made it work.
That’s Beeper Cloud, not Beeper Mini.
Aged like wine!
There is a HackerNews mirror on Lemmy
Mind sharing?
I’d like to think he was just trying to be respectful of the author, probably having worked quite a bit together. But he changed his mind pretty quickly when he saw the original author had totally checked out. Maybe that’s a generous reading though.
Looks like one of the maintainers/contributors has already set up a fork.
All three of those work in Thunder!
I use MSEdgeRedirect to redirect both the search engine and the browser used by start menu searches.
That might be a Custom Tab.

Good luck!
By any chance do you use SwiftKey? I can string together multiple misspelled words and it almost always figures me out.
This article is actually specifically about mobile! Yes it’s great. :)
I see it in Thunder.
Yep (and I had the same reaction).

I used to use Privacy.com and Mint until I did some looking into Plaid. They present a login screen that looks like your bank and you assume they’re doing some kind of OAuth. Nope they’re just taking your full banking credentials and you have to hope they’re safe. I think Plaid is a ticking time bomb. When it gets hacked a lot of people will be in trouble.
Hangouts was peak Google messaging. It was iMessage before iMessage. I don’t know if it necessarily came first, but all my friends who have iPhones and use iMessage now used to use Hangouts on Android. I think Google has a huge opportunity to be the popular brand and lost it.
Good question. Just because it’s out of fashion doesn’t mean it’s bad. I’d be curious if the commenter has legitimate gripes.

maybe there should be a third button for less confusion?
I think it’s fine as is. Three dots after a button / menu item imply more interaction is required before an action is taken.
Should I delete? I didn’t see it specifically in the sidebar.
