.net from core 2 was awesome. From 5 onwards it’s been beyond amazing!

You think they don’t collect data illegally and anonymise it (but keep cohorts) for market research already? You sweet summer child

Defedding doesn’t stop any of that though

Defedding from threads always seems strange to me. Everyone says it’s to protect your data from meta. But they can already get your data. Everything on the fediverse is public. They already have your data.

I wish it did have a browser and social media. I love the look and style of some of these minimalist phones. But I do wish they made those sort of choices, choices the consumer can make. I just want a good eink phone, that’s it. I don’t need it to be a mostly dumb phone too

I wish we got modern crts I’d buy one in a heartbeat. It’s so hard to find a good one now that isn’t either shit or just battered to hell and back

I would say enshitification is more specifically about a product or service getting worse itself, whereas they were talking more about the audience. The enshitification had very much likely caused the “facebookification” of Reddit but i would say by their definition they are not one and the same. They can happen independently as well as because of one another.

If there was a relevant one here I’d post here for sure. Reddit is a last resort or if I really need a response from someone sooner than later, cause there’s still more eyes on Reddit.

I go back to Reddit now from time to time. Mostly to ask specific questions in communities that are niche and don’t exist on here. They are the only good interactions I see that are just as good as here. Elsewhere it’s just different. I’ve not been able to put my finger on why, myself like. But it’s definitely not the same.

I mean I also completely overlooked that you wrote “Chromium” in your comment too, with my brain just translating that to just “chrome” it seems.

Didn’t actually now there was a chromium version to be honest but i imagine it’s very similar to standard Chrome but with less Google

You can do that with chrome os. Chrome os has a really good Linux subsystem built in nowadays.

The waiting around for others conversations are always wild and funny. They’re worth the awkward moments waiting alone.

Oh, I don’t know which way around it is then actually. I’ve not subscribed before, but a colleague does so it’s possible I’ve misheard or misinterpreted what he said

Jet brains does still let you keep the last used version when you unsubscribe

Fuck coffee, swap that with food or just water or something, then it’s right for me.

Depends if this cure message is a psuedonym for the real message. Kind of you have a different quip for each one, then reporting it the Devs will know what the issue is but any bad actors won’t be able to try and discern cause and effect from any exploits they are trying (or at least make it harder)

Ooo this looks cool. If love to go deeper into my stats. Might do this at some point. Can you have multiple users at once by any chance?

Why wouldn’t they keep track of what you listen to even without wrapped? It’s just standard telemetry. They need to keep track of plays to pay artists accordingly, and they keep track of what you listen to specifically so they can give you recommendations. How would you think recommendations would work without some kind of tracking?

Also what’s scary about knowing what you listened to? Heck me and my significant other guess each others top song and artist and we’re always close even though we don’t hear everything each of us listen to. And what nefarious purposes is Spotify usage going to be used for that makes it so scary?

Can we please stop posting business news here
