2·1 year agowhat’s impressive is that they still do have many hundreds of costly engineers and their site is now shit. Mastodon on the other end is working pretty well, being administrated by a bunch of volunteer sysadmins. i like this 😇
yes my dear sir
haha upvoting because your rant made me laugh
a truly great article. thank you very much!
true, i do have that same hitch that you describe when it’s fetching more posts. but that’s not too big of an issue for me either. i guess adding a bit of pre-fetching would solve it.
just watched Mindhunt (Unabomber story) and they discuss this idea: cars appeared with the promise of freedom (freedom to go wherever you want), but they ended up reshaping the cities in a way that you actually become less free, as you can’t go anywhere or do anything within walking distance (you’re obliged to use a car).
i’m currently reading the books this guy wrote while incarcerated (he wrote some while being 72+ years old, and had two decades to develop his thoughts on society and technology), and a lot of it resonates with our current realisation (in the context of climate change) that everything we’ve done over the past decades was completely wrong.
combine efforts guys!!
on Jerboa it was long press but they fixed it in recent releases. now just press once on the comment and it collapses. i was missing that but now the UX is great
Jerboa is absolutely not laggy on my side. Find it super responsive and lightweight instead. it’s only 2MB
Jerboa was the first showing up on F-Droid and so far it’s great: minimalistic, responsive, lightweight (only 2MB or so). Don’t know why so many people are developing apps and not simply joining efforts. Makes me think they’re doing it for the purpose of doing it, and because they’re happy to work on an app and get their software engineering brain occupied by their own little project. But what will happen once this sentiment passes? Who’s gonna maintain these apps? What we need is one robust app everyone is working on together.
totally true
