  • because Spotify has no real competition, the music mafia has no reason to change their business model, and people are less tolerant of ads in their music.

  • it does seem to have the loading thing, I'll reply again here if it still happens or maybe mention it on matrix (same username).

  • using this comment to test

  • actual diagnoses are likely due to better detection, self diagnoses are likely due to the Internet.

  • I'm on the latest version. I've only seen the null check thing on stuff from other platforms but as mbin is fairly small thats just what I use, so I doubt it's related.

  • the main one I'm still having repeatably right now is that sometimes when I go to post something, especially a comment, the button does not seem to work, so I press it again thinking I missed and it gets posted twice. I also sometimes have an issue where up/downvoting makes a thing pop up saying "null check operator used on null value". it also happened when trying to unfollow a community from an instance I had recently blocked.

  • I'm not sure about self-hosting (not feasible for me right now) but as a user it's not bad. I can say I haven't seen anyone complaining about it yet.

  • to anyone looking for somewhere other than Lemmy I'd like to suggest mbin. I'll admit it's not perfect (especially on mobile, interstellar is decent but it's the only app and has some bugs) but it handles reddit-style content pretty much the same as Lemmy except for the lack of read-marking on posts. as a bonus, it handles microblogs so you can see those without an account on mastodon or something similar.

  • you are aware that you aren't restricted to things on your instance right? what your talking about is literally what the fediverse is. also who cares how big an instance is?

  • that's fucked up

  • my point was more about variety than quantity but yes, I am aware. I also said nothing about the north because I was talking about Europe vs America. though many people refuse to accept it, the vast majority of people in the south are not racist. like anywhere we do have some people who are but they hold no power or respect.

  • buy and large Europeans are much more racist than Americans. in america it is not at all uncommon to have a ton of different races (I'm from a small town in Texas and we had a lot of Mexicans, black people, and a couple different Asian races (yes there are different ones)). that's not to say every European is racist and it's not to say that none of us are, but European countries tend to be much more homogeneous than the us and as a result tend to be more racist.

  • cuddle with big dog

  • pretty much all of them are in "desktop effects" along with some other similar stuff.

  • fair enough

  • I'm on tuxedo os so it is flatpak and distro package by default.

  • the settings could definitely use some reorganization. the fact that it's searchable helps but you can definitely tell a lot of that layout predates the current function of some of the settings.

  • I've looked at that, but I decided against it because I prefer to have apps not allowed to have focus unless I choose them. I also keep kde's focus stealing prevention on medium.

  • well my distro (tuxedo os) is mostly rolling release except for the Ubuntu base, but I haven't really looked into it's documentation. generally if I need documentation the Ubuntu stuff works (obviously because it's Ubuntu based).
