BTW that still uses Google's proprietary gesture typing library internally: https://github.com/wordmage/openboard/commit/46fdf2b550035ca69299ce312fa158e7ade36967

There's still no good FOSS alternative to Google's library though so it is what it is.

It's still bad compared to modern lossless algorithms. PNG is very old and even though PNG encoders have evolved, it is still fundamentally a decade behind modern lossless compression algorithms.

For example: JPEG XL in lossless mode compresses at least 30% better than PNG.

Also, PNG is not actually lossless in many cases. PNG only supports RGB colorspaces. If you try to store anything that's not in an RGB colorspace (e.g. a frame of a video) in a PNG, you will lose some color information as colorspace conversion is not lossless. Example of someone running into this issue: https://stackoverflow.com/q/35399677

JPEG XL supports non-RGB colorspaces so you don't have this problem.

JPEG XL came after WebP. It's more of a successor and less of a competitor.

That said, in the world of standards, a successor is still a competitor.

No, you want it for scrolling. Scrolling feels much more responsive at 120Hz. It does drain battery more but not by enough to be a deal breaker for most people.

It's useless for videos as most videos are 60Hz.

LLMs can't critique their own work

In many cases they can. This is commonly used to improve their performance: https://arxiv.org/abs/2303.11366

What are you talking about? The issue to bring back captchas was only opened 4 days ago!

Captchas were only removed 2 weeks ago, no one spoke up then: https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/2922

The developers have nothing against captchas. They were the ones who originally built and added the feature: https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/pull/1027

I think there have been some API changes so you need both the new backend and the new frontend.

My bad, I have Bypass Paywalls Clean so I didn't even notice the paywall!

A significant number of subreddits shifting to private caused some expected stability issues, and we’ve been working on resolving the anticipated issue.

How in the world does setting a bunch of subs to private crash the website?

Doesn't Reddit have multireddits? Lemmy can implement the same feature.

OP mentioned this.

I don't think this is a problem. It's the same on reddit where you can have multiple gaming subreddits or multiple news subreddits. Eventually the communities will consolidate.
