  • Isn't the new model based partly on game and/or studio revenue? Sounds really scummy if you put it that way: Unity announces new pricing structure -> costs for devs rise -> they increase game prices -> now they reach the revenue threshold quicker and more often -> costs for devs rise...

  • Used to think otherwise, that I was immune to the phenomenon that you're describing. But then the other day I realised my shoes were hurting my feet. I was seriously considering buying shoe inserts (if that's their English name), even had the brand in mind, until I realised what was happening.

    I've seen ads for this brand on tv like a decade ago. Before that, I honestly had no clue such things existed, I'd seen them in a store like, twice. Never seen anything related to them ever since. Literally forgot about them until I felt the slightest urge to buy them. I was really taken aback when I realised what had happened in my "advertising-immune" mind

  • Somehow, KDE Connect treats a media stream happening on a connected device the same as if it's playing on your local device. If you're playing a video on your laptop in Firefox it will add one of those "music player" things in your phone's notification shade, allowing you to control the video from your phone.

    Android automagically pauses everything it deems to be "media playback" until the end of your call, thus also pausing that Firefox video on your laptop.

  • Probably not at first glance for every user. I still have Sync for Reddit installed and both Sync for Reddit and Sync for Lemmy show up as "Sync" in my app drawer, the only difference being that the latter doesn't have an icon pack theme applied (though I think the difference is SR = white and SL = dark).

    There's probably an extremely tiny minority that doesn't know that SR died, had purchased Pro or Ultra, downloaded SL without knowing that SL is a "reboot" for Sync, hadn't noticed that Lemmy isn't Reddit, and then tried to restore their purchase expecting it to work. But I don't think it would be inherently obvious how it isn't the same app once it is installed on your phone, since it appears to work identical to the original Sync
