ah yes "Dogs found to carry a gene that lets them bark in ultrasonic waves that mice cannot hear" (fake news title), omg so political. That's the kind of shit I want sometimes. I don't know how you came up to the idea that all news is about what political parties and the ruling class are doing in their day to day lives :) I do love some news about how putin is screwing up something, but I also want news about new cool apps, new developments in technology or AI, new cool stuff found around the world, new opportunities and things in this cool world. Sometimes, just sometimes, I don't wanna hear about what insults Trump is hurling at Biden and viceversa.
I have and it is slow as fuck to type in it, it is also somewhat slow/overburdened so things take a moment and that annoys me, while Liftoff is very very fast. I much prefer the normal UI to WefWef/Vger due to the speed issues. The UI is also too iphoney but that's a trivial issue.
honestly i kinda like it but it is also a bit messy and buggy, and it also has a lot of things that heavily annoy me into using the website on mobile
the main problem is any time i get a reply, i tap the link to go to the reply and it goes to the post without context, what a mess
i also can't see new comments i post without reloading
idk if they fixed it but b4 i couldn't delete or edit posts/comments which was like ???
i do think it's way better than jerboa for many things, especially for a multi-account user who likes to swap onto other instances a lot. but its room to grow is obviously enormous. I won't try to discredit the devs, this is an amazing app for something so early in the game.
It seems like the best way is view “all” not just local
if you're not subbed to a lot of stuff yeah but i already got to the point you mention where i have a shitton of subs and i get good curated content in my feed.
having said that i do browse All often and did in this case to find this post.
it is also apparently racist because... it mocks... someone from another race...?? IS HE IMPLYING ALL CHINESE LOOK LIKE WINNIE THE POOH??? is he racist?????? lmao
to be fair you can subscribe/unsubscribe from communities. I often do this. If /c/news is too political, i unsub from /c/news, i can then go and find some other news community that posts interesting things that aren't as political
similarly, /c/technology@lemmy.world is not the only technology community out there, as is obvious, so we can go and find other things :) your feed is yours! own it! don't wait for others to fix it cuz you'll very often be dissatisfied.
The way I do it is I put a price tag to any benefits I get. I'm currently in Europe but working remotely for Americans. But let's say I were in the US. Let's say I'm making six figures. Rent in Madrid or Paris is 1-2.6k for a flat. Rent in the US is maybe 3-4k for a flat. But in Madrid coding jobs are 1.5k-2.5k a month. In the US you get 7-12k a month with the same job. In Madrid you're left with 500-1500 to live with and in California you're left with 3-7k a month to live with. Let's say your expenses are double, or even triple, in California than in Madrid. Let's say you live in luxury, you spend 1k on food, 500 on clothes and 500 on transport and other expenses in California. You're still left with 1-5k a month for savings. In Madrid you're left with 0-900.
Even making a top salary and living frugally in Madrid won't net you as much in savings as working in a us capital. And then when you want to retire your savings are worth the same anywhere in the world. You can go and retire in a Madrid town if you want. Your degree of comfort before may be the same, but you can save so much that I don't see how it's worth it to work for European companies if you're able to work for American companies, whether living in Europe or in the US.
Yeah but I don't have a uni degree or any credentials for anything. I currently get 84k just making websites. I don't wanna stop everything I'm doing to go get a degree to them work for less iykwim
Fun thoughts and all but that isn't the reason why they're blocking it. It's because Facebook is bad. Corporation, big, embrace, expand, extinguish, evil. Plenty of explanations around about why these blocks happened. However you're also right. If it were very small like a 15k people instance and it didn't carry corporations inside maybe they'd consider not blocking.
Coders in the US can make six figures easy. In Spain it's like 20-40k, 60kish un Luxembourg if you're a specialist and got a masters degree, etc. I've looked at the tech jobs in Europe in general and I'm unimpressed.
Ironically I have a railroad-like icon beside anyone who uses sh.itjust.works. I hadn't even noticed the similarity between it and a railroad. It is fate. You have, while sitting on the railroads, accidentally gotten them right up there. The solution is to swallow some train wheels so they can get attached to your poop and they will come out rolling right through the railroad. This will lessen the effort on your sphincter and make your bathroom rotations much smoother. And we're on "shit just works", maybe your shit can also get to work on the railroad by becoming a train. I also happen to know @Shit. I told him before that he just works. Fuck, we got the full thing going on.
This is the scientific perspective. All signs point to no. But as always, we might have missed something. I think this is the agnostic perspective, even the "agnostic atheist" perspective. I think, and I might be wrong, that the pure "atheist" perspective is that, beyond a shadow of a doubt, there is no God.
But if there's a tiny retarded chance that for some reason there is something as absurd as a god... lol.
u on android?
