  • So you can end all phone calls like this

  • It's a Beta, wait for the full release if you don't like it.

    Or use one of the many FOSS apps, no one is forcing you to use Sync Beta.

  • I just use 7zip to make .zip if I think the person I'm sending it to won't know what a .7z is or how to unzip it.

  • Yeah that's totally an option. Can have more than 1 account.

  • It's very clearly a Beta.

    We're essentially beta testing an app, you can hold off until the full release if you prefer, no one is forcing you to use the Beta.

  • You should change to an instance that isn't then.

  • My enjoyment of games didn't die, but my tastes in genre changes. Online FPS just isn't for me anymore, I now prefer slower single-player story games

  • Firestick 4K is a cheap yet beasty device, and being Android you can install third party apps easily.

    Plex/JellyFin, Kodi, Stremio. No need to spend so much on an AppleTV when the firestick is more than enough.

    Also apps like SmartTubeNext and SoundTV.

  • 100% on Samsung Browser with AdGuard extension, and AdGuard Home as my DNS Adblocker.

  • Are there any good dumb EVs? No internet features, no tracking, just an electric car I can get in and drive?

    I constantly see features built in to the car but artificially locked behind a paywalls, like heated seats or even speed, software that tracks you or staff able to watch you through cameras.

    I just want a car.

    (Plenty of modern ICE are the same, I dislike them too)

  • Toyoda

    Jump
  • Go to China, there's loads of them. Top Gear did a good segment in it years ago.

  • I have an adblocker so no, I don't.

  • Yes the architecture is different but that's not the point I'm trying to make. Microsoft are actively pursuing backwards compatibility and trying to make it better, FPS Boost and enhanced resolution are both such prominent features that they're advertised on the Xbox store for each game that has them.

    It's something Microsoft is pushing for, FPS Boost was developed by the Backwards Compatibility Team, they then work with developers to implement it with past games. PS5 has Game Boost but aside from it just being there Sony isn't offering the same assistance for developers to improve older titles, if this was an Xbox game you bet Microsoft would be helping to implement FPS Boost and get it to 60fps.

  • On Twitter I see a lot more people shitting on Series S|X than PS5, now I'm no Microsoft fan but that console has far superior backwards compatibility to begin with, and they have plenty of older games with "FPS boost". Sony doesn't seem to want to do this and I don't get why, it's entirely possible and would probably help PS5 sales.

    Worst part is you just know Sony will go out of their way to try and patch around this.

  • My instance has downvotes disabled, I too would like to remove only the downvote button.

  • This app is still in beta, it isn't finished yet, that's why you can't post. I'd rather use Sync in beta than the other apps.

    Yes the app has ads, this is his job, he has to be able to eat, the ads aren't intrusive.

    $20 is nothing, you have to remember Lemmy's userbase is SMALL, so he has to up the price compared to his old Reddit version, other apps may have charged $5 of whatever, but that doesn't mean they should have done, it should have been more.

    I'll easily spend $20-30 on a single dinner, but an app I use every day for hours it's too much? I'll spend $60 on a game I'll play for 10-20 hours, but on an app I'll use for far, far, longer it's too much?

    Personally even in the beta state, it feels far more polished than any of the alternative apps. If you don't like Sync or the price, don't use it. But to be personally, Connect, Jerboa, Thunder, Voyager, and the rest, are inferior (and yes, I tried them all)

  • If my work tried to end WFH I'd leave instantly.

    2 hours drive a day is not only a waste of my time but my money on fuel.

  • I moved from Ubuntu to Pop!_OS.

    It feels miles ahead, it feels so clean and polished and looks great, flatpaks enabled instead of snap. Go Pop

  • I changed back to Hot, comments are still messing up.
