Pulse SMS App for Android recently updated to include:

New “Discover” Section: Find new offers, inspiring content, articles & more

On a messaging app, really??? Who wants any of those features when trying to message someone?

Thanks for your hard work on this great Lemmy app.

Great lists so far. I'll add one that I picked up from a previous thread:

URLCheck

URLCheck acts as an amazingly customizable and powerful intermediary when opening url links, allowing, among other things: to remove trackers, affiliate links, unnecessary elements, check Hosts, facilitating link holding and sharing, protecting against certain phishing techniques and many more...

I really liked the original Lord of War, and the intro was epic. I'd definitely watch a sequel.

 

I'm not the developer, but just noticed that Lemmy Connect 1.0.152 was available on the Play Store Beta Channel. Thank you @kuro for your continued support.

Fixed

  • Fixed voting on posts refreshing the video player
  • Fixed some issues with image heights not fitting correctly

More competition is good for the smartwatch scene.

Here was the best explanation I found in the Toot link above: @rothko@beige.party ... it's not a riddle. each phrase is merely a statement of fact.

"What" is a word made up of 4 letters.

"Yet" is made up of 3.

"Although" is written with 8 letters"

and "then" with 4.

"Rarely" consists of 6, and

"never" is written with 5.

it's not actually asking for an answer

 

Just saw this update in the Play Store. Thank you for coming back to continue updates. Connect is still my preferred Lemmy app.

What's New:

Fixed

  • Upgraded various libraries
  • Fixed an issue with thumbnails apppearing blurry
  • Fixed a bug where links without any protocol prefix would crash
  • Increased the cache size from 100 objects to 200

Well-written and hilarious article.

So each one of those cars that didn't make it just hydrolocked their motor, correct? Doesn't seem worth the risk for the smaller hatchbacks.

Customers were able to pre-order when they announced it around the end of September (I ordered mine then). Now available indicates it's now shipping to those that pre-ordered.

Wow, great list. Thanks to everyone who helped.

Another factor is how addictive the game is designed to be. A quick search led me to https://www.video-game-addiction.org/what-makes-games-addictive.html which covers some of the things. For example:

Games that hook players are often designed to be just difficult enough to be truly challenging, while allowing players to achieve small accomplishments that compel them to keep playing. In that respect, the design of video games is similar to the design of gambling casinos, which will allow players to have small “wins” that keep them playing.>

Going over addictive design elements like this can at least let people be more aware of why they keep wanting to play.

Thanks for the list. I tried searching for Solid Explorer on F-Droid, but couldn't find it. Is there a specific repository I should add?
