@Interstellar_1@lemmy.blahaj.zone That’s it! You can even disable saving it. Thanks.

@stoy@lemmy.zip They both save highlighting; haven’t tested the other tools yet.

Window decoration theming was definitely already a thing beforet his beta. Maybe Aurorae’s more advanced and flexible?

which country, and what kind of criticism?

District 4 Supervisor Joel Engardio supported the closure, much to the ire of many in his district, and is now subject to a recall election in San Francisco.

I really don’t see the problem with an instance choosing a preemptive style of moderation.

One of the triggers for the current debate is this post, which followed the removal of a comment comparing National Socialism with the current situation in Israel, which can be considered a trivialization of National Socialism. Such statements can, among other things, lead to imprisonment. Among other things, the post claimed that the removal had a Zionist motive, an accusation that should always be supported by appropriate evidence and prior to which it should be ruled out that there are alternative explanations.

time to get annoyed about somebody’s addiction to idioms!

The article skips over some stuff that actually looks pretty impressive starting at 6:20, but I agree with the author of this blog that theguy’s “no biggie” is quite funny.

You are initiated enough to consciously avoid junk apps.

They don’t have to re-implement the Google framework stuff.

Most of these apps don’t in China either. But you do need to reimplement an update-checker. And that’s enough to hog the RAM. And with the RAM already hogged, the window shattered, little optimization of the update-checker is done.

Sure, they’ll have to learn about them, but they have to learn about many things in life!

They won’t learn about it if it becomes the norm to have RAM hogged.

this is currently playing out in the EU

No, you have to go through complicated bureaucracy and fees to become an independent app store for iOS. Anyone who goes through this is probably competent enough to optimize their update-checker.

when were we afraid of it besides being afraid of it for being polygraph 2.0

wait what did you mean by “We were afraid of mind reading tech when we should have been afraid of polygraph 2.0” then

what’s polygraph 2.0

I’m not saying having other app stores on Android nor iOS lead/will lead to them being unavailable. I’m saying there needs to be an option with a single app store and set of services. Having multiple app stores on Apple and very easily installable would cause similar issues with RAM and usability for the less initiated, and everyone was uninitiated once.

I don’t get what you mean.

what’s that

I agree with you, but my point from the start here (which I should’ve said more clearly) was that this doesn’t mean Apple must open up in response (and by default), which would leave us with no good centralized, minimalistic option either.

The reason I don’t use Android phones in China is because every company uses its own, separate version of what’s basically microG (notifications, location…) and update checking, and so my RAM is gone before I know it and everything’s super laggy. And on my grandma’s Android tablet these desktop-style notifications pop up overwhelmingly because of certain apps that bundle adware. This is what happens when sanctions took away a default option. Customization is no doubt something great for hobbyists and an option that should exist but there is a benefit to having a default monopoly (though, again, there should be an opt-out).
