Really? I don't think I'm using a beta release and I'm glide typing this message. I might have gotten the apk off of Github rather than F-Droid but I honestly don't remember, been using this keyboard for a few months now.
Absolutely. I understand if private schools wanna create an image of discipline through uniforms age dress code, but for a public school to go this far? Crazy
This is crazy, I imagine they're never seen a Sikh boy then? In my part of the world I've seen several faith based schools that made exemptions to hair dress code stuff for Sikh students. The Sikh religion, if I understand correctly, means they don't make any modifications to their body, including hair. What's the difference here? Why make such a big deal of this?
Nope, just a simple app for writing text files. If you want you can save those files to the cloud but for myself, there's a lot if times where I just want to draft something quick on my phone and it's my go to

Simple Text Editor
FOSS text editor for when you just literally wanna write something down without any weird bloat and without having to deal with Google. Available on F-Droid.
Also, OpenBoard for a FOSS keyboard with swipe typing. Also available on F-Droid
You know what, I think F-Droid is actually my hidden gem app. I'm sure most Lemmy users use it, but I don't think I know anyone else IRL who does, so hidden gem might not be accurate depending on perspective.
I honestly didn't know they had a games division
Genuinely wanna know if they'd bite his toes too or is it a strictly dead meat thing or something else
A lot of Podcast creators I wish were independent. I listen to a lot of former How Stuff Works network podcasts, but they were bought up by I Heart Radio and I just hate the constant throwing to random ads. At least they still are able to say whatever they want it seems, as evidenced by Behind The Bastards, but yeah, wonder what going independent would even look like for them
I figured they were tie in games, these are movies?!
Empty land? My man, they're literally kicking people out of their homes and moving settlers in, there's videos and reports from multiple sources. It's not the vast empty plains of the wild west after the natives died to disease.
Vox did a great report a while back where they talked to a guy who was moved into a house a family was kicked out and his justifications for moving in and the struggles he faces in the neighborhood. The focus though was the family who got kicked out and their efforts to get it back.
I'd link the video but I don't wanna link YouTube and I'm sure you could find these kind of reports if you wanted to.
Needing an extension to import sounds insane. I've noticed a trend for doing everything in browser and with extensions and I kinda hate it. I guess it makes it easier for cross platform compatibility and all but I don't wanna open a browser extension for everything. And importing passwords sounds like something a website interface should be able to handle, right?? I don't get the need for an extension there
Never used Proton Pass but seeing that it doesn't have a desktop app is a deal breaker for me. I hate having to go to my browser, pull up the extension and search for passwords if I'm just trying to log into another program on my computer.
I do wish Bitwarden was able to recognize when desktop apps are asking for passwords and auto fill logins. Roboform, which I tried previously, could do this but there was a lot of jankiness in other parts of the program.
Also tried Dashlane, which was a great experience in general but unnecessarily expensive when FOSS alternatives exist that can do infinite passwords and multi-device syncing.
Exactly my issue. We had a good push to move when the whole terms of service thing happened but I got way too many work related group chats with non techy people on WhatsApp so I'm just stuck
Seconding this. I switched over to discuss.online recently and was surprised when I suddenly couldn't use Sync. Took a good while before I happened upon the admin post about the issue so now I'm back to Lemmy.world on Sync
Malaysia is fun for this. Just asking for tea (teh) will get you a hot sweet milk tea, if you want no milk you ask for "teh-O". If you want no milk AND no sugar you ask for a " teh-O kosong", kosong basically meaning empty. Then of course there are the ice variants like "teh-O ais kosong". So basically the default is getting everything except ice, then you add modifiers to take things out.
But tea language strangeness aside, Malaysian teh-tarik (pulled tea) is amazing and should get more global attention. Even the preparation can be quite a show and there are local competitions.
Yes, been loving BG3 but my best experiences with games in recent years have all been indie, from Outer Wilds that made me completely rethink what a game experience is meant to be, to Vampire Survivors that tickled all the right parts of my brain into making me spend hours watching pixels flash on screen in the most mind-numbingly addictive way. Indie devs really seem to be carrying forward the soul of gaming that larger gaming companies have lost, the exceptions being so rare that Baldur's Gate 3 is getting lauded for basically meeting what would have been normal expectations for a AA title in the early 2000's
I remember being really taken aback hearing kids were being made fun of for being smart on my first trip to the US for a gifted kids camp. A bunch of the other kids were sharing stories of how hard it was being the smart kid at their schools, getting bullied and teased and I was just like, can't relate
How do you choose an instance and does that have a significant effect on your Lemmy experience?
I originally chose to make my account on lemmy.world since all the content seemed to come from there. But I've since learned that I can fill my feed with stuff from any instance so it feels like it doesn't actually matter if I'm on lemmy.world or not. At the same time, Lemmy.world seems to be frequently under attack so I'm wondering if I should change instance but have no idea what I should even be looking for when choosing.
