Everyone I've tried from the Play store feels too basic compared to Nova or their rating is too low because of bugs.

Edit: in hindsight it looks like I'm a paid shill for Nova. This isn't the case at all. I've been looking at launchers for the past few weeks as I recently realised I've had the same set up style for over a decade. I don't want to be the person stuck in the past doing stuff the slower and archaic ways when there are newer and better ways of doing things. I currently have over 20 launchers installed on my phone and I've been slowly trying some.

I think perfection is probably somewhere between dark and light themes. Light can frequently be too bright where it feels like you're looking into the sun. And dark can be like working in literally the dark, and it's sometimes too difficult to see the boundaries between objects. I think it would be cool if we had a sliding scale, where you can pick from several brightness levels.

Why do you believe they wouldn't legally be able to?

If an instance is defederated, the owners can just spin up a new instance.

I've always thought about what you've said about Lemmy when people start talking about how Lemmy is more privacy focused than Reddit.

As one of your replies have said many people in the hundreds/thousandths have a copy of your data on Lemmy - the instance owners. If you decide you've shared too much information then you end up asking every owner to delete that nugget of information. And realistically there is nothing to enforce it. This is one benefit of the walled garden of places like Reddit because they are legally obligated to delete the information especially in places like the EU.

Why are you working in personal time?

I agree. I don't understand why these videos are watched either.

There are other weird styles too. Eg. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1rkUcw9INLI

A friend and I created one years ago when we were at university made with 6 machines. We were running MATLAB simulations that would take over a day to complete on i3/i5 CPUs. Fortunately MATLAB and the simulation add-on package had been programmed to parallelize jobs, which reduced the simulation time down to just a few hours. This was done in a Windows environment with dual core HP machines with every RAM slot filled.

I can't imagine homelab workloads benefitting from such a set up unless something like video/3D rendering can utilise it.

I use Sync for Lemmy. When I click my own comment or the reply from the other person it takes me to the comments section where it only shows the parent comment. Hmmm... Maybe it's a bug in Sync for Lemmy

Use a dedicated account for YouTube. How will they remove your emails if they're on a separate account?

I use a YouTube channel account, which might be good enough. I've had one in the past banned and the rest of my Google account was left alone.

(I was only just getting into creating programs that communicate with online services and I hammered their API. My program didn't have any checks and balances to ensure it wouldn't go over it or to throttle back when the API endpoint attempts tell it to calm down. It only happened once but that was good enough to get it banned)

Bing has DALL E 3. And there is Stable Diffusion on many websites.

It wasn't shut down, it was just abandoned. Furthermore, the app store won't forcibly uninstall an app on your phone just because it was removed from the store.

Whilst the pinned post says it will stop working after the API change, every other post is talking about how it's working, new bugs that have appeared as Reddit is changing their API, and others about how they chosen the wrong method to keep it working.

I don't visit the sub but since i was interested because of what you said, I've found someone say practically the same thing as I did here. https://www.reddit.com/r/BoostForReddit/comments/16upao5/comment/k2pp0ae

I don't know what the developer did exactly to keep it working. After the API change there was 2-3 updates within the first few weeks, and then I assume they removed the app from the store.

How is the Fediverse privacy focused?
