I think its downfall was being a closed beta, which made it useless for communicating with other people who weren’t already invited

Yea I have no beef with the dev charging. People need money

Having to accept that horrible Privacy Policy though, even if I do pay. No thanks

I think the point of the post is ain’t nobody donating $20 to the Lemmy platform or host or other apps

Why does it matter what we think?

I don’t mind so much that it’s not FOSS. Developer needs paying, fair enough

I want an app without an egregious Privacy Policy that doesn’t bundle code that shares “Usage Data” with advertisers

Same but stuck on an old version because I don’t have Google Play Services

Yea imagine buildings being made of bricks and not match sticks

What’s the threshold for “high doses”?

What’s the threshold for “high doses”?

I’m guessing they’re saying the quality of Taylor Swift’s music peaked and dropped similarly to the Fed’s rate?

Wait, is this true?

Reminds me of the statement that you can’t dissect a rabbit to find out why it’s cute

Same

If you don’t read the news, you’re uninformed. If you read the news, you’re misinformed

Sounds like you need a cleaner

I’m loving wefwef but have two gripes

• It seems to get laggy with prolonged use (Firefox on android)
• The way pressing Posts/Inbox/Account/Search operate like tabs where you have to back back back to the main screen

I assume you’re referring to the fact that it claims to be based on court orders

You might want to look into what the FISA court counts as oversight

The US and UK governments have literally that

I agree with what you’re saying about light and timings. I don’t have any reason to disagree with that and I dare say it might even be more productive to rise earlier etc

But I know I’m not the only one who struggles to conform to a morning schedule. Is it hard wired into me? I don’t know. But I know a night schedule is what I always gravitate to.

So realistically my choice is either a comfortable night schedule, or a messed up morning one where I accrue a sleep debt and pay it off at the end of the week. I think everyone would agree that’s suboptimal.

I also want to address the conflation of night owls with “messed up” sleep. 8 hours every night is not a messed up schedule, definitely not compared with 5 hours every night.

I see a couple of flaws

1. Nobody who lives alone is allowed a pet
2. If you have a toddler, in this rule that enables you to expand the number of pets, but I’d say a toddler adds to rather than eases the load
