  • "B-b-but I got it from dafont!"

    -Elon musk, probably

  • Probably. But most companies have adopted a "do it now and ask for forgiveness later" policy it seems. For proof, look no further than class-action lawsuits. Those aren't punishments, it's just the cost of doing business.

  • I think using the site you're protesting against is peak slacktivism

  • In my opinion, it's been great and feels pretty close to native anyway. Some issues with the screen freezing when trying to scroll after swiping away from a post but other than that, it's super nice. Plus updates are so quick to install, really like that too.

  • Get rekt Ubunoobs

  • I suppose you want your audio drivers to work the first time too? The nerve of some people smh

  • Working out is about discipline, not pleasure imo. I’m sure there are some folks who really enjoy working out, but for most of the general public, it’s about sticking to a routine and seeing yourself improve, regardless of how it makes you feel

  • I firmly believe open source is the future of software development and things like this really show off the strengths of this sort of collaborative work. Everyone benefits and it’s a great way to maintain high quality.

  • Yeah, I’ll be very surprised indeed if Threads allows Lemmy posts to appear in the app, since that’s user content they don’t really have control over, in terms of user agreements or policies as far as I know, and I’m sure the last thing Meta wants is a ton of Lemmy users beckoning Threads users to ditch the centralized network of Meta and joint them in the “real” fediverse lol

  • Oh lol, I hoped over to beehaw briefly to check it out abd…yeah it doesn’t seem to line up with that comment, strong moderation yeah, but ah well. Thanks for providing some additional context!

  • Hell even web scraping will get the job done. Defederating from meta is going to be akin to slapping a “meta bad” bumper sticker on and refusing to use Facebook. We aren’t the target audience of Threads, meta doesn’t give a shit about Lemmy or its instances, and defederating won’t impact the Threads experience or product hardly at all. Still, glad we have the option to defederate at all, and exercising that option should be used in this case, imo. Just don’t expect Mark Zucchini to be crawling on all fours begging Lemmy admins to stop because their product is being crippled lol

  • I made a programming.dev account because I briefly forgot my vlemmy account info lol, glad I have this one. Was super bummed, it was just the other day the owner was explaining a reason for defederating and everyone was overwhelmingly approving of it, hope they’re doing ok.
