apotheotic (she/her)

I genuinely can’t fucking stand this. It never breaks away cleanly and it just makes it annoying to share because the pieces are all different sizes

The fediverse do be shenaniganing

Beehaw at least is only a quarter of the monthly active users compared to hexbear, that hardly makes it a “micro” instance if they’re on the same order of magnitude. But I digress.

No shade to what hexbear is achieving and I’m very glad to hear that they are championing trans acceptance and not tolerating transphobia. Great work!

Unrelated, I didn’t get a notification for your reply, at all, how peculiar. I only saw it because I happened to revisit the post.

I’d say “and it isn’t close” is a bit disingenuous when instances like beehaw and blahaj exist.

Calling out transphobia is division? Just curious what part of the lgbtqia2s+ community are you?

James Acaster earned my eternal respect with that whole bit

Miss Kobayashi’s Dragon Maid was pretty cozy, and features primarily adult characters.

Cool can they give up on blockchain games now?

You’d be comfortable eating food prepared by a Nazi? I sure as hell wouldn’t.

To be clear, nobody was outraged by the devs using gendered language. The outrage was because they rejected multiple PRs to correct it under the guise of it being “political”.

Do cloud platform storage operations count? If so, in the hundreds of terabytes (work)

Even without direct support for alt text, you can achieve the same result by posting it all in the post body.

Sounds similar to what Aarthificial, the Astortion dev, is doing for their game. Maybe they’ll open source the tech sometime 😅

I mean this is literally the purpose of alt text, so that you can share an image and its description (which in this case should contain all the text from the image) and screen readers can do their thing.

I’m getting two different arguments from you, and I can’t tell which one is your actual argument

• grapheneOS is not as good as people think

Or

• people act like grapheneOS is the only option for a solid privacy experience

To the first argument, its just kinda… Wrong? Grapheneos is very transparent about what it is and is not, and what it is is an excellent security focused os which can be a great basis for you to have a privacy focused experience as long as you don’t install spyware like Instagram and Gmail.

To the second argument, yeah, I get that. People acting like its the only option are either misinformed, falling for bias, or intentionally being disingenuous. Its very good, and almost certainly one of the best ways to have a privacy focused experience, but you’re not delusional if you want to use something else. There’s plenty of talented people building upon the already great basis that AOSP provides. But by the same token, community members being silly or fanatical doesn’t really make the operating system any worse.

“Let others suffer with ads so I can have a cost-free browsing experience”

I’d much rather pay to support platforms that enrich my browsing experience, than continue allowing the ad-fuelled, spyware ridden, clickbait filled internet to continue even one more day.

Ad blockers for all, until we don’t need them anymore!

That’s two “mods bad” memes in 6 minutes, friend. Take a breather

Edit: 3 in 10 minutes

I guess the nixos users were all too busy asking everyone if they’ve heard of nixos to answer the survey?

BTW have you heard of nixos?

Look everyone! Its it!

Honestly I can understand why you were underwhelmed coming off the back of code geass. (Funnily enough, I did the opposite - guilty crown into code geass and I found myself bored in code geass. They might just be too close thematically and our brains get fatigued)

I’d say that it definitely gets better, there’s a good bit of ground work that needs to be done in the first few episodes to establish characters and motivations and such.
