The enshittification continues.

Did you forget to switch to your alt?

I knew Lemmy was just the same 12 people having conversations with themselves...

Back in those Gingerbread days, Amazon were basically doing the Epic Games thing where every other week they'd release a paid app or game for free. It was worth tolerating the crappy app store just for that!

I'd be interested to hear how it goes for you.

Gotta get you to scroll past as many ads as possible.

The Android/Pixel Lemmy communities are insanely sour and pessimistic, I've noticed. Every single Android post will have a comment bemoaning the subject, and another comment saying that Google is evil. It's tedious and so much worse than Reddit.

The yanks are still too comfortable to do anything about the blatant fascism rising in their country. Rich right wingers have pulled off the amazing feat of keeping people happy with bread and circuses and convincing them to look at the evil foreigners whilst they're robbed blind. It's happening in other democracies as well.

I fear the US is just the beginning. The EU is growing more right wing and the UK is looking at giving Nigel Farage total power in 3 years time. Forecast does not look too good.

Didn't we agree over 20 years ago on "toaster"?

The latest LLM's are pretty damn good as a research assistant - that was its original purpose. Using chatgpt as your first go at researching a new subject (like self hosting) is perfectly valid.

I think sometwo could learn to be a little less sensitive about made up numbers on a social media site 🤷🏻‍♂️

I had a Pixel 3 before the 7, and basically just Nexus phones before that. Sounds like maybe I'm just used to this particular shortcoming of Google's hardware! 😅

I have a Pixel 7 and haven't really ever noticed issues with my modem. Has it gotten noticeably worse in later models or something?
