Throwback Tuesday: Remember Ice Cream Sandwich?
  • Ah, the good old days of giving Samsung devices a second change at life! I really dislike how north American models have locked bootloader these days.

    Welcome to Android 4.0! Android 4.0 delivers a refined, unified UI for phones and tablets and introduces innovative features for users and developers. This document provides a glimpse of the many new features and technologies that make Android 4.0 simple…

    Seeing screenshots of ICS makes me feel pretty nostalgic about my old Galaxy Nexus. I don't remember having any complaints about it. Anyone else feel the same way?

  • I want the ability to sideload addons (not just collections) and adjust theming (e.g., for true black mode) on Android. Major omissions IMO.

    Im very excited for Lemmy. It seems a bit rough around the edges, but I'm very hopeful for it. That being said...
  • I can confirm we are seeing very similar levels of engagement on !android@lemdro.id as on /r/android despite significantly smaller subscriber numbers.

    Lemmy really does scratch the itch for me. It's refreshing, even if mod tools aren't there yet.

  • Please stop talking about reddit. If you want this to be the next reddit, I beg of you to stop mentioning it.

    I wouldn't be too concerned about the references to Reddit. It's precisely that upset toward what we're seeing happen to Reddit that is driving even greater usage of Lemmy. The same thing happened with Digg, which contrary to some of our collective memory did not take place all at once. Many moved over to Reddit in 2007 following the HD DVD encryption code scandal, with many still using Digg to some degree. Sentiment toward Digg continued to decline and Reddit traffic continued to climb until the final mass wave in 2010 with the arrival of Digg v4 that shifted emphasis away from user generated content toward heavier curation - this sealed Digg's fate with folks deciding to switch for good.

    I think it's a good thing that Lemmy users continue to view themselves as displaced Redditors. You don't want that energy to fizzle out. It's what's driving people to volunteer more of their time and effort into community building.

  • Sure, go ahead! I can clean up the other ones after you do. Something I've noticed for Lemmy is that a brief intro at the start can help to keep the markdown text out of the main page description box.
