I have it installed and very infrequently play, more to check in on progress. It is most definitely a really cool engine and there is a fair bit to explore, but it takes a looong time to load up and get to the point when you are in space since on start up you have to commute from an apartment to the space port. Basically every time I start it up I spend an hour or 2 playing and just explore a different but similar spaceport or space station...

This is a real issue, but scanners are the worst example because no generation can figure them out.
Came here to say tutanota and protonmail. Guess I will leave now...
I do wonder how effective it will be at stopping trolls. If anything it may make Beehaw a troll target as Lemmy grows. Its easy enough to make an account and list some things from the Beehaw's principles.
Yeah I figured there would be technical challenges. I imagine the data load would be fairly large, but since its a growing platform data growth is going to be an issue either way.
Maybe the better solution is an app that you can log into multiple accounts with anditt merges your feeds.
To an extend I understand the lost ad revenue for the 3rd party apps. But it seems like there's a different solution, like requiring apps using the api to either pass through the ads or pay a per user fee, allowing for app users to get all the features they want for free and pay som small monthly subscription to remove the ads...
I use Infinity since its open source
One thing I havebeend confused about is where comments/posts are stored if I post on a community on another instance. Is it stored to my instance or the other instance. And how available is the content I search, like, comment, and post in other instances to the admins and others in the instance that I joined?
I like replaceable batteries but there is no doubt that the simplified unibody designs have other benefits besides the planned obsolescence companies seek. Battery life or thickeness will certainly take a hit. I feel like having some form of incentives for more repairable phones would work better to bring better, more renuable options without blockingotherr designs
I use an iPhone for work and android personal phone. One thing that always bugs me on my iPhone is the lack of a universal back gesture. There is typically a button to go back and Apple is pretty strict about reasonable interface consistency, but I frequently end up just swiping back to the the home screen. Maybe I am dumb.
I also find that Apple leads the way in OS optimization, battery life, and some aspects of UI (even if I don't always agree with their choices), but android leads in hardware based features, like cameraa and screen advances and increased flexibility to try newthingss that change the experience like launchers, ROMs, and custumizations
Overall the openness wins the day for me.
There will be an earthquake somewhere on earth. It looks bad. Quick everyone everywhere bum rush the grocery stores and buy 6 months of toilet paper and water bottles!
Super interesting but may cause more chaos than good.
