Hey how did you know that I am sitting at the toilet?

In most social media I am a commenter (idk. As soon as I feel comfortable to post something the comments murder me)

But even so did not use Lemmy to much with jerboa. Not enough content. Buggy. Not nice.

Saw a new post about clients and found "thunder".

Feels like relay. Yes some functions may be missing. But feels nice enough that I can scroll through my subscriptions and have fun using it.

And in mastodon I have a feeling that the growth is linear and not exponential, so give it time.

Lemmy will probably not replace Reddit soon, but it will be a solid alternative for not super special content.

While I never used tiktok: why FB and not TikTok? Or did it get so much worse since I stopped using it 10 years ago?

Edit fb is terrible because boomers hunt for you there and the "everyone's life is so fucking perfect" thing makes you depressive. Especially because it mostly shows you people you know in Reallife. But since everyone started sharing TikTok shit I have a feeling that it is:

  • a social media, so everyone tries to be something they are not.
  • the short content kills your attention span.
  • the content makes you measurably more stupid (fucking YouTube shorts are the same)
  • the algorithm get's even more data, because it measures how you react to stuff and not only what you and others share
  • controlled by the CCP, so I suspect some agenda (look up what TikTok is like in china, it is effectively another program (interesting and educational stuff mixed with chinese propaganda))
  • still growing while fb is officially growing but like more and more people I know stopped using it. Could be bubble, could be that new markets are opening and some regions are declining, could be active users leaving but bots are being counted.

But that is just my opinion man...

Yea Love Ecco, too. They are pricy. But totally worth it. For 2-3 times the price you get shoes that last at least 2-3 times as long and are a hell of a lot more comfortable.

No expert, but another advantage of inflation is to create incentives to invest/spend money. With a deflation you are rewarding people that keep their money in a pillowcase. Which is probably bad.

Additionally there probably are some control structures to increase or decrease inflation, but they will bring their own cost with them. So controlling Inflation may be not controllable enough/not worth it to do so.

I mean didn't they achieve that? Today a lot of things are web based. Firefox is a powerful browser. Especially on Android. So if you want you can have your OS in a browser thingy...

!evilbuildings@lemmy.world Or did I do it wrong?

Be aware that Firefox Android supports addons. So maybe there is already a fix...

While GitHub can do a lot of funky stuff, a GitHub "repo" it is effictivly an project folder. So usually if you open a project (usually called "creatorname/Projectname"), there is a bunch of files. Below that is usually the documentation. It Is part of the project but GitHub is so nice to render it for you. Usually there should be an explanation what this project is and usually a rough explanation what to do with it. I say rough because depending on the popularity and the target audience you get everything from "download here for your OS" buttons to "adapt for your usecase compile with gcc and have fun"

As a user that is kind of it.

Above the files are usually a few tabs.

Code are the files. On the right side is this green button with "get the code" where you can download a zip. But you can usually open the files online and see the raw contents.

Issues are bugs people reported that are in various states or being fixed (or not).

Pull requests are people that contributed code and want the maintainer to review and hopefully integrate into the project.

GitHub uses git for cooperative development. but git is complicated, not necessary to use programs shared in github and while I can use it, I am far from proficient enough to explain it on the the internet.

Not sure. Some subs feel normal. It is hard to switch...
