Announcing the official community here: [email protected] and also announcing the first open testing for the alpha version is available for Android here: https://lemm.ee/post/688038

It’s not that I’m actively educating my daughters about LGBTQ+ yet but they are at the age of learning about relationships and any time we or they talk about “when I’ll have a boyfriend…” we will comment “…or girlfriend whatever you’ll like…” I mean I at least try to keep them open minded while not forcing it, at least if and when the time comes they’ll feel comfortable to tell us.

I’ve heard of some corporate environments using different tools because of some weird use case, but honestly I think it doesn’t justify, if you’re taking it seriously you should be using git.

This is it. Imagine you setup your RSS reader to fetch your tech news from multiple sites. You can get from LTT Forums, Ars Technica, Kit Guru, The Verge, and so on… You will start seeing news from multiple “servers” in your reader, and that’s pretty similar to what you’re getting here on Lemmy too. If you want to think in Reddit terms, you are just cutting the middle man (Reddit in that case). I know the analogy doesn’t fully translate, but honestly if you think about it, having everything from one single source is the weird case.

right but that’s not the kind of constructive answer we want to be replying to people now is it? Lemmy is still growing and the inflow of users, whether from Reddit or not, is a great opportunity to get free feedback and try to do something about it. Maybe there’s UI improvements that could be used to make it feel less confusing or something.

I take this kind of comment as legit feedback from a user that is struggling with a base concept of the “product”, we could engage with them and see where the root cause is.

It depends. I lived in Florianópolis, Brazil for most of my life and I don’t think I would drink from the tap there. Not that the water was dirty, but it was just not recommended. We always had a filter that would clean the tap water.

Then I moved to Poznan, Poland, and it really depends. In theory the tap water is safe to drink, but not necessarily the pipes of most old buildings. In that case we also have a filter that cleans the tap water.

We’ve recently moved a little away from the city in a place built recently with new pipes. We still use the same water filter as before, but I can drink from the tap and I do it often especially at night when I just take water from the bathroom tap :p

I lived in Finland for a semester as an exchange student in Ylivieska, I remember the tap water was very fresh

Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them, pretty good movie in the Harry Potter universe without all the school of magic theme.

After many years of using custom stock ROMs on my phone’s, that were always better and more up to date than the branded android ROM the phone came with, I’ve decided a few months ago to finally get a Google Pixel 6.

It’s a great experience, basically feels like all the custom ROMs I’ve been using all these years but the camera is great and Google Wallet works, also some pixel exclusive niceties like the PO Pixel app from teenage engineering, etc, and as always the most up to date Android version available.

Just another quick update, I got the domain beyond.onl and I’m planning to run a small Lemmy instance there. I probably won’t be allowing account creations but I will be creating some official communities for Beyond announcements there.

The idea is to have a community where you can follow for new post updates about Beyond and comment, suggest features and improvements etc.

I will probably host it somewhere like Azure, I am not sure, as I have no idea of the costs associated with it, so I will be taking it very slowly and see how that will turn out. Maybe at some point I will open it up for new users too, let’s see :)

Another update, with basic post and comments view ready, we should be soon approaching an alpha release date so you all can have a look by yourselves :)

Me too I use Rider and I really like how they put the emphasis on the “integrated” part of “IDE”.

Having that said, Fleet looks pretty good and I’m excitedly waiting for it a stable release.

That’s a very valid question, someone asked it before, I’ve replied here: https://beehaw.org/comment/381245

Me too I think at least I am commenting more often.

Go into the water, live there, die there.

Took Dethklok too literally I guess?

That’s the whole problem with any social app right. Would be so happy to ditch Whatsapp for better alternatives but what’s the point if no one I know is there.

Glad you guys are here though :p

Quick update today I worked on the sidebar, I’ve hidden the items buttons that still don’t do anything, added some icons, created a nice card for the logged in account. The only thing I am still not happy with is the contrast of the account name vs the background image, so I will look into something to fix that soon.

I am still not sure where to post this those kind of updates, maybe a community is not such a bad idea but I cannot create communities on beehaw, maybe I will create one on another instance and mod it from this account. In any case, I will post that info here too.

Jetbrains Fleet is about to roll out their own AI assistant and it looks very promising.

Amarok 1.4. Loved that thing. Everything that came afterwards in both terms of version and other similar apps even the mainstream ones do not get close to how good Amarok used to be.

correct the screenshots are from the Android app. I am using React Native to target both platforms with the same code, and for UI lib React Native Paper, which is a Material Design implementation. I am yet to see how it looks like on iOS but I like the idea of the app following the UI patters of the platforms it is running on.
