Reddit has a new AI training deal to sell user content
  • Tbf under quitting i understand not interacting with the platform anymore in any way. Just using a different app for that platform isnt really quitting. I still use reddit with a modded 3rd party app so it still works since i never really got into lemmy or kbin (i'm here after months of not opening it just to look what changed) so while i dont use the official way of accessing it i cannot say i quit

  • Does the idea of this concern anyone else? Why is no one talking about it?
  • Guess me being on windows 11 is a big F then

  • Apps for kbin?
  • Ah so the mastodon situation. With mastodon not having features essentially which basically a lot of other alternatives have or even having their own exclusives features.

  • Doing my part for the community
  • What does the ratio mean and what is bad about preventing users from reaching one? Never used torrents in my entire life so curious what the meaning behind that is.

  • Using geddit to read reddits
  • Just checked and my patched sync for reddit still works

  • Apps for kbin?
  • Can you clarify? As of my knowledge kbin doesn't have an app yet and lemmy apps don't support kbin.

  • Using geddit to read reddits
  • I personally still use a patched version of Sync for reddit with my own API key. Interestingly nothing changed over time. I still have nsfw access and don't pay anything. Wonder what's up there but as long as that works I'm fine.

  • CalcKey Officially Rebrands as Firefish
  • Firefish supports now all apps afaik that are compatible with mastodon. You might just not have access to certain exclusive features of the instance.

  • What's the difference between Frame Rate and Refresh Rate?
  • Interesting read. My monitor has a 75hz refresh rate. Often i use vsync because of that since i experience tearing in some games. I don't have the ability in any game to lock fps to 75fps unfortunately. Usually it's either 60 or 120. And limiting refresh rate makes the colors displayed much noticeably different.

  • Reddit removed your chat history from before 2023
  • Yeah it was something separate from DMs. More like WhatsApp like.

  • Imgur links suck
  • Note that not all instances do this. Especially not necessarily if they aren't mastodon. My calckey instance for example has it optional and i have it off there. Akkoma i know also can do it optionally.

  • Imgur links suck
  • Depend on how it's setup. Some servers are setup to cache images, some don't. Mine for example doesn't and streams directly from source instead so i don't waste storage.

  • Imgur links suck
  • Yeah even for large Media uploads I'll probably not use my own instances server and instead use something like YouTube or streamable. Since many instances don't even support displaying large Media at all i noticed. Like i uploaded a multiple hundreds MB video on my instance and on all Mastodon based instances it showed the file not being available.

  • Looks like Boost has finally crashed to earth
  • I still have access to nsfw with ReVanced Sync. But afaik im not mod anywhere.

  • 3rd party app for Reddit, Boost, is still functioning well after July 1st
  • I also still have access with synced after patching it in ReVanced manager. The official app unfortunately died :(
