It's a crawler that ports things from one platform to another without consent from the user. If either of them are unethical and should be blocked, then both should be blocked.

I understand blocking this bridge, but if admins do that, they should block other bridges too, like bird.makeup

Threads isn't federated yet. It'll be a while before fediverse accounts can be seen on threads

That just sends a screenshot on a map and a Google maps link. What we want is realtime location sharing

There are ads on the app store, which I'd consider to be part of the "primary operating system", especially since it's the only way to install apps.

Not to mention constant ads for icloud. In the photos app, and even notifications from the settings app. (It's possible to turn these off, but not easy or intuitive).

After switching to Android, I haven't seen a single ad in the operating system, (I think Play Store does have ads, I just haven't got any for some reason). The closest thing is Google photos sometimes asking me to turn on backup.

I just started playing this. It's so fun!

It's acting up, so the feed doesn't work, but if you go to the profile of someone you already subscribed to you can kinda see their posts? It's weird

Not actually how it works. There's two options. One of them has the notifications in the "dead space", but the content never gets eaten up.

(Pinging @[email protected] , just in case you didn't know about this!)

I wouldn't use this myself. Most apps are designed so content fits underneath the camera hole so nothing gets eaten, and even if it does get eaten, the camera is so small that it's not an issue for me

Edit: this is what you have to enable, by the way.
Android menu: "Display cutout", with the "Render apps below cutout area" option enabled

When will the results be posted? I want to see the desserts :)

At this point vpns are popular enough and have enough ads about them that most people will be able to look up 'free vpn' on the app store and download the first one that comes up. They're not difficult to use at all

(assuming that's what they mean by "the fediverse", the use of which was the first big hint that humans didn't write this text)

What do you mean? Do humans not say 'the fediverse'? I've seen plenty of people use it. We are even in a community called fediverse

Text before revealing can be anything.
Text can be very long,

And contain markdown

Even images

Like this one!

I don't think
There's a good

Way to do this with the old spoiler system, at least that I can think of.

The fact that everything stays collapsed in one line is something I really like about the spoiler system also.


 

I didn't think this day would ever come

Clicking Lemmy links usually brings you to the original instance of the link, which means you won't be able to interact (vote/comment). It also means it'll open in a browser instead of an app.

Luckily, for some apps, there's a better way to open links. The method in this post will work on Eternity, Sync, Liftoff, Summit, and partially Jerboa.

Eternity (Infinity)

When you see a Lemmy link, share it with the Infinity app, then tap 'Handle Link'. That's it.

To get links to open fully automatically, go to App Info > Open by default > Add link. (This won't work with all Lemmy links, only about 60 instances).

Sync, Liftoff, Summit, & Jerboa

  1. Download the Lemmy Redirect app:

IzzyOnDroid

GitHub

  1. Go into the Lemmy Redirect app, and tap 'Main' next to the app you use.

Now when you see a Lemmy link, share it and open it in Lemmy Redirect. It should open in the app you chose.

More info

  • On Jerboa, links to communities will work, and posts from your own instance will work. Posts from other instances will not.
  • Sync, Summit, and Jerboa have an option in App Settings > Open by default, to open links fully automatically, but this will only work with some instances (~60 in Jerboa, 51 in Sync, 14 in Summit).
  • Eternity also works with Lemmy Redirect but the other method is easier.

Opening Automatically

Lemmy Redirect has the option to open all Lemmy links fully automatically by either:

  • Using Shizuku
  • Manually adding all 1,500 links (Not recommended)
  • Using LinkSheet (IzzyOnDroid) (GitHub)

Other Apps

For other apps, I couldn't find an easy way to do it, but there is a more annoying way to do it:

  1. Copy the Lemmy link.
  2. Go to your instance's search bar in a browser, and paste the link.

The post should show up in a way you can interact with.

  1. If you really need to you can save the post and open it in an app.

That's it. If you think anything in this post should be updated, let me know!
