Clearly they do care though. Look at all of the earnest replies to his posts! If folks didn’t care, they would say as much.

That’s fine, but we need to just admit that and stop trying to get the big users to stay by sheer force of will. Either give them the tools they need or accept that Mastodon isn’t for them and that they’ll go elsewhere. You can’t have it both ways.

I follow him on Mastodon, and I think many regular users misunderstand his specific problems. They’re unique due to his huge number of followers, and I think that if we want Mastodon to grow, it wouldn’t be a bad idea to include more tools for folks with large followings.

If you’re looking for a free alternative, check out how to use Markdown files. Obsidian is a popular (but not open-source) program. The beautiful of .md is that it’s plain text and can be easily imported into a variety of applications, including a simple text editor like Notepad. Here’s a good overview video.

The folks who run the archive website have some weird vendetta against Cloudflare.

Notably, Andor was NOT run by Dave Filoni. I worry that having Alex Kurtzman as the “Star Trek Czar” is going to backfire. He’ll get overextended and he’ll want all of his projects to interact (please for the love of god please keep series comprehensible as a standalone). You see it happening now with all of the mediocre Star Wars content.

I wouldn’t say SNW is light. It’s a little campy, but I think it’s close to the spirit of TOS. They deal with some really heavy issues, but also remember to add a little humor to cut the tension. The only episode I didn’t like was the musical one.

Have you tried Swiftfin? It’s 3rd party open source. I find it works much better than the official Jellyfin app.

Everything about Quark is great

At this point, it’s just a tradition

Yup. Never forget who’s really holding things up!

The only thing I wish Apple Reminders has is the ability to set a recurring task like “30 days after task completion”

I’ve seen behind the scenes of other Lemmy servers, and unfortunately the base product is really flakey. I don’t envy anyone trying to maintain a server…

And it’s also a sort of punch-up. The ensigns are doing all the hard work, but the officers get all the credit.

I don’t have a need for a trackball mouse, but I just want to say thanks for the incredibly detailed review! I still read the whole thing.

Another vote for Proton Mail! I’ve been using it for years with a custom domain. Keep in mind that your emails are secure and encrypted on PM’s servers, but not necessarily on the servers of your recipient.

You’re welcome to go whenever you want. We’ll be fine here.

Yeah, I kind of agree on this. The real question is: is YouTube currently profitable, and they’re trying to squeeze even more out of users?

It would be nice if companies could look at a tidy profit and just say “that’s enough” and leave it be. Alas, that’s not how capitalism operates…

This whole thing is such a mess. As much as I love my Game Pass subscription, I’d prefer if we didn’t have so much consolidation in the market. It’s like how movie studios operated before they were broken up by antitrust lawsuits in the US

Even if they are acting in good faith, I think they’ve earned our derision and deserve to be shut out. You don’t get to play unfairly for decades then turn around and expect no consequences.
