Also, I can’t seem to work out how to tap someone’s name to access their profile. Since this app doesn’t handle links to other Lemmy instances internally (the “here” in your OP opens the browser rather than actually taking me to your post), I wanted to comment on your app’s community by finding it via your profile.

Am I just not hitting the correct pixels? Or are there no profile pages just now?

Also, the community icons are missing from the posts in the feed.

This needs thumbnails on the left as well as marking post read on opening thumbnails, other than that it looks great!

Onboarding looks great and the performance is perhaps the best I’ve ever experienced trying various Lemmy apps.

I have to be in a certain mood to watch their videos. When my brain is in that mode, everything about that channel is perfect from the slow pace, to the dry humour, to the excruciating detail.

And I think that’s okay :)

Why did you have to make me feel so old 😭 back in my day we respected our elders! 👴

There should always be an option to share the image itself, not a link.

I can't comment in the app either, even on the same instance.

Weird flex on a post about how some sponsors are actually helpful but okay.

Aha I see, thank you for explaining :)

Also, sometimes sponsors have genuinely good products.

Karl Jobst had a Geologie sponsor which helped my skin clear up a bit.

Recently LTT had a WickedCushions sponsor which I’m hoping will work better for my headphones than my Chinese knock-off ones. I want cloth padding, not leather padding, for my headset, and the ones I got don’t snap in place like the official ones. Hoping WickedCushions are better. They’re arriving today.

Lastly, some of the sponsor segues and spots themselves are just plain funny and add to the content. Karl Jobst with Raid Shadow Legends, Internet Comment Etiquette and Internet Historian with NordVPN, most of LTT’s sponsors, etc.

Right, I see your point, thank you for clarifying :)

That being said, unlike the male-to-male example, where I personally don’t understand why the spec prohibits it, I think it’s pretty obvious why consumers want USB-C. The Internet is awash with memes about inserting USB three times, etc.

I think there’s a vast difference between “why is male-male banned? Heck it, I’ll create one as it serves our use case” and “I’m going to negate the only consumer-facing advantage USB-C has for no real reason”. Yes I know C has many other benefits but the common denominator doesn’t care about any of that.

I’m not sure I understand your point. You can make a USB stick that fries your hardware too, that doesn’t mean Kingston is going to make all of their pen drives fry your hardware.

Is this some kind of “acshully I’m technically correct because it’s theoretically possible” thing?

As someone who does not own a Tesla due to a crippling, chronic case of nomoneyitis, a Tesla has been my dream car for a while. That is to say, it was, because after watching more than a few Technology Connections videos @ YouTube, Hyundai’s EV has me looking like that distracted boyfriend meme.

It looks even cooler than a Tesla to me, and the features seem better too.

Except for USB-C, which doesn’t care about orientation.

Speaking as an Apple user - I am heavily invested in their ecosystem - I am extremely happy that Lightning is on death’s door. I fully agree with the EU and I am very grateful to them for forcing Apple’s hand.

That being said, your point about USB-A falls apart when you consider any situation where your vision is even partially obstructed. Such as; back of the computer, back of your monitors, a dock unless you’re holding it, etc etc.

What I’m hoping will happen:

1. Apple sells only USB-C to USB-C cables
2. Apple users start requesting more USB-C ports on motherboards / desktop computers
3. Mouse/Keyboard manufacturers produce USB-C alternatives of their products
4. Motherboards move even more to USB-C
5. GOTO 3 until USB-A becomes as legacy as VGA or PS/2
6. We hopefully never see another single orientation external cable ever again.

A lad can dream…
