What a weird hill to die on.
How can someone else's experience and enjoyment of something differ from my own criteria?!
Not least because switch was old hardware when it launched, it's aged hardware at this point, and equivalent games on other platforms have far better performance.
It's certainly different, but for signal users who want to maintain that level of privacy, it's probably something they want, right? From their perspective this is probably a good decision.
I'm indifferent because I'd personally rather have interoperability and Beeper gets the job done.
I'm indifferent, since I've got both installed, there's no escaping having to use WhatsApp in many countries around the globe. If I want to keep in touch with family/friends then only one or two contacts use signal, for everyone else it's WhatsApp or the alternative is SMS.
I'm also indifferent though because of I want the interoperability, Beeper is doing fine.
On the other hand I'd listen about him since I had no experience or awareness of him since I'm not on social media. Behind the bastards did a good podcast episode on him.
That would probably be because your instance is different. Lemmy.world has recently blocked VPN traffic apparently because of bad actors uploading CSAM behind VPN. I also had issues with Lemmy with my VPN this week and either need to split tunnel or need to browse Lemmy as view-only.
I prefer manuals, they're more fun to drive, but the future is inevitably automatic with EVs.
I've made the switch over and Lemmy feels perfectly viable and improving very quickly especially with the third party app devs working on supporting Lemmy. Reddit won't die but it looks like it'll stagnate, whereas Lemmy has got a brighter future.
That's the joke
Testing it out, doesn't seem to work with Connect though, needs to be through a browser.
I have one person I know on Signal, and zero people I know who use stories outside of Instagram.
I checked again and you're right! I was looking under the filters heading but there's a separate block list heading.
I didn't actively block reddthat but I accidentally setup an account name and deleted and replaced it...I think deleting the account might have added reddthat to the block list, maybe?
This doesn't seem to be an app setting but something lemmy.word is filtering. What's the point of hiding but not blocking, and why this filter at all?
I heard Lemmy modding is "open", so is there some way to track and see why something like this is done?
Edit: see comments, it was actually an app setting but not something I changed/applied myself.
Forgive me if I say that might sound like a biased take.
Personally, leaving aside the legal argument of piracy, I would be fine with paying Nintendo the money but playing on my steam deck and having stuff like steam input and having my save games for future PCs. I haven't played TotK yet but the 90+ hours I put in BotW is locked to the switch which I sold after getting a steam deck. I don't care for high end PC performance.
