At least he fired Junior for uhhh.. palm muting on his bass.

Have you updated it? The latest version solves the loading problem

I'm using infinity and it does have the polish. I don't get the fuss about "tHe OtHeR aPpS dOn'T hAvE tHe sMoOtHnEsS!!1!11!"

On first impressions, putting ads beside an ad-free platform, and then charging to remove said ads comes across as borderline scummy. As for twenty fucking dollars, I'd rather pay that to my instance, cause if sync dies, there's a sea of apps to choose from. If my instance dies, I lose everything. Idk if there's regional pricing tho.

Not that I got to care. Couldn't bother when there's Infinity.

Why pay to spez when you can move to a better platform?

The privacy factor indeed needs to be looked at more. I sought refuge in the Fediverse to prevent FB from getting enough data points to profile me down to the soul. I'm pretty sure a huge margin of users here came for the same. Federating with such a cancerous entity defeats the purpose of migrating to here to quite an extent.

Jerboa is developed by Lemmy's devs. It's fairly decent, though it needs some polish in the search functionality.

wavedrom.com is something I myself discovered recently. It can draw timing diagrams by taking JSON-style text as input.

I'm still waiting for an announcement from the dev of Infinity. But things don't look any better. The only one I feel bad about is them. Spez can eat shit while watching his platform meet the same fate as Digg.

Another interesting thing I realised: In a centralised network like Reddit, if the site goes down, nothing is accessible. But if a Lemmy instance goes down, most, if not all communities you're subbed to should still be up given they aren't hosted in that instance.

Load distribution. Different Lemmy instances are run by different volunteers who can only put so much money into them. So if lots of volunteers put up their own instances, then ideally each instance could have a few users signed up and thanks to federation, they'll all be interconnected.

I mean, if you're using GrapheneOS, you're probably already smart enough to not use microG at all if privacy concerns you, or use their sandboxed Google Play if you really need that.
