I’ve been out and about all day, and can’t check my desktop. But when I looked earlier this week, I found it by searching for “group”. AI tab group something or other.

You can disable it in about:config

Suits or Suits LA. Catchy tune

Yes, Intro Skipper plugin. It’s awesome.

I like and use Thunder. It’s cross platform on iOS and Android so I get the same consistent interface from my iPad and my android phone.

The term “sideloading” has been around since the 90s. Source: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sideloading

Nice job articulating your arguments. Now that you’ve explained your stance, it can foster better discussion.

Since this explanation is so far down the thread, I suggest editing one of your more top level comments to include these points for better engagement.

I will say this: the whole point of Lemmy and federation is to have control. Each instance gets to choose what’s important for them. A singular UX experience isn’t possible by design. But that’s not to say there’s no room for improvement.

Thank you for including sources, this was my point to AnonymousWolf.

I should have said “they may not be the same” as I didn’t check either. I stand corrected.

Why are you passing off the onus of proof to me or others in this thread? It’s your argument.

Just google ‘Good UX principles’ and you’ll see Lemmy breaks so many of them

No thanks, I’m also a decades long IT Professional and I’m not going to do that. It’s your argument so your burden of proof.

Lemmy breaks basic UX principles the UX is bad on multiple levels

Again, please feel free to cite specific examples.

I don’t have any data to back it up

That was my point. A number of times in this thread, you’ve stated your opinion as “a fact” or expressed it as obviously correct. It’s possible to get your point across without the condescension and acknowledging it’s your opinion.

I agree that the nature of federation on Lemmy and other federated social networks is complicated. Resolving that is no easy task. However, your stance in this post seems to be the burden of choosing your instance should be removed or streamlined by randomization. I personally disagree - while there is a hurdle to having to choose an instance and that is a barrier to entry, it’s also valuable in them learning that this isn’t just another platform under a single umbrella.

You seem to be conflating “the vast majority” and “people my age”. They are not the same.

You’re also making a lot of global UX preference claims in this thread without sources or data to back them up.

You can buy Canadian VoIP numbers from VoIP.ms

The downside to Keepass is it is not self hosted, as in it’s designed to run locally per device. Yes, you can put the database file on a network and have multiple clients from different operating systems access the database, but you will end up with collisions and database issues. Ask me how I know.

Running cross platform Keepass (and it’s various forks) is absolutely doable, but it is not as seemless as BitWarden. I’m running self hosted VaultWarden and I’m hoping to run it for a long time as it’s much easier than Keepass.

Yes, but it’s neither as good at adblocking as UBlock Origin or as fully featured.

Really cool. How did you get the lenses in? Just pressure fit?

You’re right. The answer: from c/all

I understand this was posted in the Reddit community, but also…

Who cares? Let that cesspool die.

Fixed title

I’m guessing that’s not the reason for the downvotes. Even though this is the reddit community, Lemmy users generally just don’t care about what happens on reddit.
