Sorry to ruin the fun but it stands for “Personal Computer Memory Card International Association”

There is a joke around the name, as you said, though :)

Test

Not sure if this is the right place but I need to get off Twitter/X, I would love to use Mastodon but the hurdle feels bigger than Reddit to Lemmy. The Mastodon client feels uncomfortable to me for some reason, and I guess unlike reddit/lemmy where you have a group of people talking about specific topics, I am interested in following specific people on Twitter - a fraction of whom are on Mastodon. I don’t want to support Musk or his platform but I’m struggling to find a replacement.

I guess if he starts charging for it the decision will be made for me 😅

Ich hoffe, dass sie ihm neue EU-Beitrittsgespräche nicht zugesagt haben 😬

Threads

/s

I think the answers you will get from users who are on lemmy will tend to be positive 😁

Mich macht es auch glücklich. Ich bin selbst kein Entwickler, kann also nichts dazu beitragen, aber es ist echt beeindruckend wie schnell alle Aspekte (Backend, Apps, Inhalte) hier besser werden.

You could transcode your downloads and store them at a lower quality if you want to save space. It is extra steps though.

It’s a valid question and I understand your point, but it becomes an issue for me when I end up being caught up the a snowball effect and need to use a bad app too. Here in Europe, WhatsApp is an example of something I’d rather not use, but because it’s the platform everyone else is on, it’s very difficult to avoid. The parallel I see is if Twitter is supplanted not by Mastodon, but by Threads, then that is the place people will gravitate towards and then the privacy friendly version becomes less useful due to lack of users and content.

Of course it is an option to just not use these apps, but the preferably outcome is that I am able to have the nice experience without sacrificing my privacy.

• Old reddit redirect
• Reddit enhancement suite

Not sure how much you need these anymore 👀

Not sure just mildly infuriating 😅

Also infuriating: the number of my friends who have installed this shitty app 😑

Would strongly recommend a password manager. I use bitwarden, you can use self host it or not. If you don’t like bitwarden there are plenty of free options. Random password generation and sync is going to be a better practice than much else I can think of, so I’d encourage you to go for it! 😬

I think over the next few months we are going to see quite the pace of changes in lemmy technically, as new features are introduced. I would be careful with saying you’re happy to wait because something stable will be the result. I think it’s going to be a case of racing to keep up and, despite the developers best intentions, it will have bugs too. Hopefully over time it will be less blatantly obvious than now with other clients, but don’t give up on sync when it launches and is not the sync for reddit experience you’re used to! I’m sure he’ll get there in the end :)

Kenne mer nit, bruche mer nit, fott domet 👋

Are many other servers proactively anti-lgbt?
