No but when I tried to change Mastodon servers, I was frustrated to learn that I could carry over my followers but nothing else. The platform highlighted “easy mobility,” but I found that to be misleading.

I think the biggest problem that Mastodon et. al need to solve is changing servers/accounts. There needs to be an easy way to move servers while retaining past posts, etc.


It makes sense — we just don’t understand it yet 😀
I can agree with this. Or pirating old games that aren’t available through GOG, Steam, etc. Like if I want to play Battletoads, I don’t have many options…
I feel like the “pirate everything” mindset focuses on shitty corporations but ignores that paying for media also helps the creators pay their rent.


If you’re looking for a free alternative, check out how to use Markdown files. Obsidian is a popular (but not open-source) program. The beautiful of .md is that it’s plain text and can be easily imported into a variety of applications, including a simple text editor like Notepad. Here’s a good overview video.


The folks who run the archive website have some weird vendetta against Cloudflare.


Give me that big-box Plytanium!


At this point, it’s just a tradition
God please inject these JWST images straight into my brain. Every one that comes out is breathtakingly stunning


The only thing I wish Apple Reminders has is the ability to set a recurring task like “30 days after task completion”
Easy pathway for some Cat6!


JWST – world’s best (and most expensive) desktop background generator.


I don’t have a need for a trackball mouse, but I just want to say thanks for the incredibly detailed review! I still read the whole thing.


Yeah, I kind of agree on this. The real question is: is YouTube currently profitable, and they’re trying to squeeze even more out of users?
It would be nice if companies could look at a tidy profit and just say “that’s enough” and leave it be. Alas, that’s not how capitalism operates…


This whole thing is such a mess. As much as I love my Game Pass subscription, I’d prefer if we didn’t have so much consolidation in the market. It’s like how movie studios operated before they were broken up by antitrust lawsuits in the US


Even if they are acting in good faith, I think they’ve earned our derision and deserve to be shut out. You don’t get to play unfairly for decades then turn around and expect no consequences.


That’s how I feel at this point. There are alternatives!
The main issue is if you try to attach multiple portable drives. My Pi 3B+ could only really power a single HDD, but I wanted to attach multiple. The only solution there was a powered USB hub. I eventually got an old Lenovo mini PC and used that.
I’m definitely curious. Browser-switching is annoyingly mentally difficult, though. I keep bouncing between Arc and Firefox, so maybe this is the perfect marriage.
