  • I know it doesn’t help you now, but Apollo used to have a feature where you can save your posts in folders. Used that feature all the time. Maybe one of the Lemmy apps can implement something similar.

  • Sounds like either they’re just being lazy and trying to avoid generating a privacy policy, or they’re up to no good and trying to be vague on purpose. I lean towards the former.

    If they don’t have ads, that means there would be no cookie tracking which is what I think they’re trying to explain. But if they have login available, they might still use cookies to remember who you are.

    Privacy policies can be generated in a few minutes online. And nowadays with GDPR, you would think it’s a no brainer to properly let your users know what you’re collecting.

  • I think the same can be said for a lot of fields. E.g., just because someone’s an excellent architect doesn’t make them a good animator by default.

    There’s also so many variations on the types of programming. Maybe a mathematician might be better suited for data science rather than frontend stuff. And even then, each person is different and has their own set of skills part from whatever their formal training is.

    What I think makes good programmers is having the ability to bash your head against your desk while debugging, but still walking away at the end of the day loving the job and problem solving. Persistence and creativity go a long way in programming.

  • Is your keyboard broken and replacing now for meow? And if you want to be an American, you work on getting citizenship and take an oath to the country. Just like many other countries. Citizenship is not something you identify with. And the only way be “semi-American” is with dual citizenship. It’s not something you identify as like genders.

    It’s another thing to be a citizen of a country and not necessarily be proud of it sometimes. But that doesn’t make you semi-whatever.

  • I’ve worked with big companies during big mergers. The higher ups don’t see a sinking ship. They see money and opportunity, regardless of how far from reality that really is. Maybe you and I consider that irrational, but with these people, most of their actions are not driven by rationale.

  • “Cotton got so mad he started talking about himself in the third person.

    “Mr. Cotton says the chairman needs to rethink his decision,” said Cotton, as his name came up in the roll call. “That’s what Mr. Cotton says.””

    Lmao imagine getting you mad about the same tactics you supported, that you refer to yourself in the 3rd person.

  • You could actually use Backblaze for both scenarios: as a normal cloud storage where you can access stuff back n forth or for long term backups and storage.

    I use Duplicacy to copy and encrypt my main folders once a week. But you can set schedules for backups as you wish. Depending on how much you’re backing up it may get a bit pricey though. I have a little under a couple terabytes backed up and pay around $6 for Backblaze. They have a client I’ve never used that might be helpful as well.

    One thing I wanna look into is using Duplicacy to also back up really important documents to my proton storage.

  • Seconded. Subscribed to it a month ago in my mission to cut my dependence on Google products. So far I’m loving it. Calendar is a bit basic but it is encrypted.

    Between the 500gb provided with the proton suite and using backblaze for backups, I’m pretty covered with data.
