I went from Emby to Jellyfin as they started their enshittification journey. I don't really notice it being less polished.

Absolutely. The Model 3 was fun to drive in a carting way. The ID.7 is comfortable to drive long distances in.

Yeah the ID.7 is the first on VWs "new platform". IIRC they're going to refresh the other models now too.

Going from Tesla to VW was very refreshing. To start with it's now possible to trust the expected range given. The Tesla lied its heart out.

The VW ID.7 is about the same cost as a Tesla Model 3 and its size and features are more like the Model S. I was early so I have the sedan, a friend has the tourer though and loves it.

No such warning, at least not here in Sweden/Europe.

I looked at the Kia EV9 but it was a lot more expensive, also, we didn't get the swivel seats here. They had to be bolted stuck in forward position :(

Yeah no I'm not switching out reliance on US cloud services with ... Chinese.

Replaced my Tesla with a Volkswagen ID.7. Recommended.

Half of all Canadians support joining the EU, and while I haven't seen a poll for us Europeans I'm sure we'd love to see it.

Amazing place, just make sure to ALWAYS follow the ordering instructions. Being a customer there is a privilege, not a right ;)

Was Perez bad or is the Red Bull simply undriveable if you're not Verstappen?

Did Ferrari go after Hamilton simply for the ad revenue and not for possible future race results?

Is there a point to Aston Martin if they keep going backwards each season?

:P

What are your thoughts on paternity leave? in c/asklemmy@lemmy.world
[–] troed@fedia.io 33 points 1 week ago

Swede here. Taking care of your family means being an active parent and a sharing partner.

I took 18 months paternity leave with our firstborn so my partner could finish their degree.

If you're planning on being a software developer, find a different career ASAP. The industry is collapsing and employment prospects are becoming slimmer and slimmer. in c/unpopularopinion@lemmy.world

25+ years here too, Sweden. Agree that I've heard frontend and mobile apps isn't what it was a few years ago but backend, embedded and cybersec is constantly hiring.

Kagi search engine working with Russia (fedia.io)
 

Swedish author and famous pro-Ukraine blogger Lars Wilderäng (Cornucopia) reports today that the Swedish security expert Karl Emil Nikka has revealed that Kagi is using the Kremlin propaganda tool Yandex as a backend for searches.

Wilderäng speculates this might mean search terms are leaking to Russia, while others worry about how Kremlin thus can get their talking points into western search results.

Security expert Karl Emil Nikka tells us that the search engine Kagi, popular among tech geeks, uses Russian Yandex, which was introduced after the full-scale invasion. This, of course, gives Russia the opportunity to look at what is searched for via Kagi.
