Sarsaparilla

Epic lost their case with Apple regarding Fortnite, yet now Epic are looking to make Fortnite available on iOS in EU. But from the article it seems an alternate “app marketplace” would still need Apple approval anyway. It will be interesting to see how all this is going to work.

lol oh no … so what are they gonna give me for my 400 odd Fortnite Bricks, then? 💸

Just visited a moment ago to check if I received my Place awards for placing FUCK SPEZ pixels. Couldn’t access my profile page without turning off adblock. They just keep giving me more and more reasons not to return.

Netflix wanting to get paid for their service and content is reasonable.

Sure, it’s reasonable, and why I started subscribing in the first place. But if I pay for four screens, I expect to be able to use all of those four screens, no matter what address they are being viewed from.

I have several hundred “Bricks” which is some cryptocurrency from r/FortniteBR … It’s stored in my “Vault” but I dunno how to use it or what I can buy with it. I dunno if I can sell it, but I remember them specifically referring to these Bricks as crypto when they came out, and they are earned by posting content and comments.

It’s currently 2.9 stars on my Playstore. I’ve given it one star and a scathing review. Thanks for the heads-up. I hadn’t thought about changing my review when I uninstalled it a couple of weeks ago.

Kbin is very early access, but they are just different website software that essentially do the same thing - which is to communicate with other networking instances in “the fediverse” through a shared “protocol” called Activity Pub. The diagram of the tree in the linked wikipedia might help you visualise it.

Kbin includes a “microblogging” aspect as it is trying to also incorporate Mastodon (decentralised twitter) as well. There’s other software too like Peertube (decentralised Youtube) and Pixelfed (decentralised images) but I dunno how well they all interact with each other yet.

If the owners of your instance (you’re on Lemmy.world) blocks another instance, then you would have to go to the other “instance” (effectively, their actual website) to view the content. You would have to make an account at their instance to interact with the content on their site.

Alternatively, you could also make an account with a different lemmy instance (or kbin/etc.) that federates with them (but I didn’t wanna complicate the above explanation too much.)

Amazon Prime (because it comes with the service), and Netflix (until anyone on my account gets a “shared password” block, then I’m cancelling it).

“But Reddit leadership has all the funds they need to hire people to perform those extra tasks we formerly undertook as volunteer moderators, and we’d be happy to collaborate with them if they choose to do so.”

Hope they charge big bucks for that highly specialised training they’ve offered.

The author appears to have a poor understanding of the full scope of what the protests are about, let alone the variety of creative actions being taken. This seems to be a marketing media publication, so that’s their focus. I guess what’s most important is that advertisers and others in the industry are noticing that Reddit has lost control of it’s user-base and has become a risky investment. That’s a pretty good result for the protests. The finer details don’t matter so much.
