Even then sometimes manufacturers will still use Amazon for fulfillment and shipping. I agree though, the shopping experience is pretty awful and I try to avoid it

Yea that seems pretty high. I have a solo pixelfed server that runs around $5 / month. It doesn’t get a lot of use though

PopOS is the only thing I have a few minutes away with

Yeah it’s like if you had a calculator and 10% of the time it gave you the wrong answer. Would that be a good tool for learning? We should be careful when using these tools and understand their limitations. Gen AI may give you an answer that happens to be correct some of the time (maybe even most of the time!) but they do not have the ability to actually reason. This is why they give back answers that we understand intuitively are incorrect (like putting glue on pizza), but sometimes the mistakes can be less intuitive or subtle which is worse in my opinion.

And it’s also a way for topic focused servers to filter out signups as well. There are general purpose instances with open sign ups that don’t do that.

Yeah if the settings panel had feature parity with control panel but with a better user experience nobody would mind but it’s less features AND a worse experience.

I remember trying to change some mouse settings on windows 10 but they removed the ability to get to the old mouse options from the desktop. I drilled down through the settings app and eventually buried deep I found where it would let me open up that same old mouse settings modal to get to what I wanted to change. More clicks, more searching, and less features = poor user experience

Yup, I like Lemmy but there are still those subreddits that Lemmy can’t fully replace for certain sports teams I follow.

I’m pretty sure you can install Firefox on those too can’t you?

Wish is okay. It’s nowhere near as good as Frozen, Moana, or Encanto though

For starters doesn’t it only run apps from the Google play store?

Thanks, sounds like it’s probably not worth it.

Yeah that’s what I’m worried about. I just want an open source version of my smart TV that doesn’t have stupid ads on the home screen and trackers and works near flawlessly without all the fuss

Okay, makes sense

What do you mean by Denmark being locked to the euro? It has it’s own currency

I can’t use the Internet on Mobile without an adblocker. The user experience is totally unbearable

This reads like a post written by AI as well lol

I appreciate your input, I was also teaching myself to code by the time I was in middle school, but this is a different situation and some guard rails are needed to manage screen time and app usage, etc.

I’m not so much worried about her wrecking the computer and more about her wrecking her brain with unfettered access to the Internet

I’m still waiting for offline bicycle, transit and WALKING directions. Why can’t it tell me which way to walk without internet but it can tell me how to drive a car??

Yeah take away Saidin and Rand is still a master swordsman. He was shielded and killed was able to kill 2 warders, one of them unarmed and the other with the first one’s weapon.

I think GRRM did admit he was taking the piss a bit with that one to be fair to him
