No Thanks—Why I'm Avoiding Instagram Threads.
  • What's surprising to me is that the android version of threads has no such requirements. It asks for contacts, camera, location, photos, notification, and mic permissions, and you don't need to enable them to use the app

  • Gaming rule
  • Battlebit is just $15 on Steam and has a great amount of content, quality servers, and old school Battlefield-style gameplay. Super low spec graphics. Can really recommend it to folks looking for the above

  • It's over - Sync for Reddit is offline
  • Cheers to the best reddit app. I'll be eager to try out the lemmy client when it arrives!

  • Why we need to move on from kbin.social
  • Ugh, I've found it difficult to get it up and running. Need to throw more time at it but I thought the docker containers would "just run".

  • Is there a computer game, or a specific moment, a fight etc that you wish you could do fresh with no prior memory of it?
  • I loved the fight so much. The way Mantis read the data for other games off your memory card was just so cool; such a clever way to mess with the player.

  • In response to the disastrous Spez AMA, /r/Videos have announced that they will permanently shut down on 11th June, one day ahead of the planned blackout
  • I'm impressed and pleased with the mods' willingness to strike like this. Hope it may lead to change.

  • Is there a way to create Super Communities?
  • I think something like this would probably be done user side, maybe with some option to share it, much like the "multireddit" feature of reddit. Each individual community is still moderated and run by their mods and local instance, but the user can choose to aggregate multiple mags/communities together.

  • [Everyone disliked that]
  • On one hand, he did say "ask me anything". Reading the thread, I realize he didn't actually say he'd answer anything.

    Also, I love how the dishonest fuck that spez is wrote "Some third party apps decided the cost per user a month was too much" after app developers like Apollo's and Sync's both independently posted breakdowns of why the pricing structure was untenable. And it's after he was caught lying about reddit's conversations with the Apollo dev.

    Glad this debacle has me invested in the fediverse future, at least.

  • I like this significantly better than Mastodon
  • Mastodon allows you to verify other ActivityPub accounts with a special link-back HTML element. I wish that there was either a universal method or that more applications had something like it. Something that indicates "this is me, and you can see my other activity over here and here and here".

    Maybe we need a dedicated ActivityPub service for just that lol. Maybe I should be the one to make it...
