I’m surpised that #Discord is still the most popular instant messaging app, even on Arch #Linux:

These guys should really fix their app.

@douglasg14b @fwygon I love Kagi. For technical topics, the search quality is unparalleled. For everything else it’s about the same.

@aksdb @neon_arch Oh yes! I used SearXNG and it was quite slow.

@Coeus @Lycan I also just noticed that images from federated (non Lemmy) comments are ignored. This is probably also related to the older version.

@VoxAdActa AntennaPod. I’ve been using it for years now. Instantly works and has exactly the features you need. No ads, no bullshit.

@alyaza Is it really that hard to dial 🇪🇺 112, 🇺🇸 911, 🇦🇺 000, or whatever the number in your country is?

There may be lots of problems with emergencies all over the world, but dialing the actual number isn’t one of them.

@TheYang @steb They want to use an open protocol? That’s great.
But then they should be open about their intentions, and not send invitations to a few select individuals to a confidential “off the record” “roundtable”. This seems just too fishy to me.

I agree with you, and I appreciate that Facebook at least tries to reach out, but after all that happened I also understand that there is a certain aversion against Facebook.

@lemon @webghost0101 You can even achieve that with just #Wine. I carefully set up my Wine on my two devices with #DXVK on one and #GalliumNine on the other. Took a while, to be honest.

But now, together with wine-binfmt and icoutils, I can just double-click any #Windows game. 🍷

@Tavirez @somefool Firefox is the browser if you want no-bullshit and customisability. It works, and it works well. And you support the last remaining bastion against Google’s reign on the entire Web.

@LaggyKar @uthredii For not being OLED or not being 120 Hz?

@emi @shipp I think an open standard converted to a walled garden is still better than a garden walled from the beginning.

I can still send emails to GMail accounts.
I can still send SMS to my friend’s iPhone.

I wish everything was fully open, but at least I get to chose my email provider or my SMS app. (Although SMS is completely irrelevant in Europe these days, due to providers still charging money per message.)

@lostwonder Does #libreddit count? Then yes.
