Sue these places up to the last penny. Fuck them.
Now I'm sad, I just found out the developer passed away in 2022 :(
Like selling the account to a spammer lol
The Lemmy structure isn't really visible from Mastodon, and communities shows up as groups in Mastodon, but yeah you can see Lemmy's content on the Fediverse, same as on kbin :)
I felt the same, cancelling my subscription after 10 years on a 16 years account.
That was my initial suggestion and IMO the change wouldn't be the PR nightmare that it currently is. It would have been a fair middle ground: you don't make it financially devastating for the 3PA devs, the Premium users don't get ads so that would be fair that 3PA don't get shown ads through the API
At this point I kinda lost faith in Reddit. I don't expect them to honor whatever they say, so I won't be subscribing anymore.
The only thing it lacks IMO are custom items types but it's on the roadmap.
I have a case and a tempered glass protector. I like the case because it add some grip and my current phone doesn't do wireless charging so I have a small metal plate between the phone and the case to use a magnetic phone holder in the car. That way I don't have to glue it tonthe back of the phone and you don't see it.
I don't take the extended warranty because I buy my phone unlocked, and my credit card offers an extra year of warranty on top of the one from the manufacturer so I have two years of protection instead of one.
At least the alternatives come with functional and decent mobile websites.
@Lemmyin
dammit! :( wait a minute..
IMO the way to go is to slowly transition, and avoid systems, hardware and softwares that depends on the cloud as much as possible. If you can, try to stick to one open standard and don't deviate unless you have absolutely no choice.
You should be able to disconnect the Internet and control everything locally on your home wireless network. If you can't, then you don't own it.
Sure, you can make some automation rely on some weather services (OpenWeatherMap), but you could go one step further and deploy your own weather station on your property (ie: attached to the shed, etc). That way even if the Internet goes out, you can still automate based on local data.
I just wanna say thanks for letting me in and good luck with the project !
