Hotels are good if you just wanna sleep in them. AirBnB is better if you wanna chill in the house with friends. We get once once a year and cook, play games and fuck about in the house. Would be shit for 8 of us to stay in 4 hotel rooms.

You don't need to watch them, but the possibility to post is still better for the community. The porn side of Lemmy will be a shadow of it's former Reddit self without videos/ability to play redgifs videos in app. Then you have the dog videos, and then the TikTok videos which you might not like but it's undeniable they draw a crowd.

Thing is, with videos, which I'm assuming will come eventually, it will be the best one for me. Most social media feeds are awful, looking at you Instagram, TikTok and Reddit default app. Far too much soggested content.

I'd just much rather it play in app, hoping Boost is able to play links natively without having to open them.

It's all about ease of use, I don't want to click on a bunch of links, it's easier to scroll, watch, scroll. Also, I haven't even seen links to videos, video posts are wayyyyyy down.

Sure seems like it, and I see an article every other week about the self driving aspect hurting someone or getting into trouble. Just not worth the hassle.

So ice? Is all ice not clear where you come from?

I'm not referencing the fediverse, it's stupid. But also, lemmy isn't a great name so I probably just won't mention anything like that.

Yeah, I'd think I'd describe the era as wasted potential. There are so many nuggets that could've been great but it was bogged down by bad writing. Jodie could've been a great first femal doctor, but Chibnall couldn't write her with much depth.

The timeless child could've been a good twist but he chose the most boring answer. I genuinely believe it would've been better received if the Master was the timeless child. It would make more sense why he'd destroy Gallifrey, it'd make more sense why he's always hated the timelords so much, etc.

They could've done something with a Black character and a police officer being in the TARDIS together, but all we got was "hey, not this police officer". Tbh, Yaz being a police officer really didn't play into her character past the first episode. She never takes charge or crowd control, anything a PO would be good at.

I could go on and on about things I'd do slightly different which I think would result in stronger episodes/arcs.

It'll be different for everyone but it's just the Reddit app the had the best layout for me, it had all the features I liked, multiple accounts, posts reliably marked as read while scrolling and then you could hide read posts whenever you want with a button (connect does it automatically so you sometimes lose posts you'd rather see again) You can choose the content type you want to see, I'd often hide albums/images so I only see GIFs/vids for... reasons.

Edit: the comment problem is already fixed in an update, I'm not dissing Connect. It's very feature rich already. I just want what I know better.

Easier OP and myself identifiers in comments, right now on Connect I'm really struggling to find my own comments in threads because I just have the same colour as everyone else. Notifications actually showed you the context when you clicked on them, with connect I'm having to click the post I got a comment on, then go and find my comment (harder without myself identifiers) and then figure out which comment was new.

It's probably just because I'm familiar with it as I'm sure a lot of Reddit 3PA's had similar features but the layout felt very readable while also being minimalist. Whatever features Connect has right now, Boost has but it's better and has more features. But I understand Connect is still pretty new. But I'm hoping Boost releases as just a port of the Reddit version with all the features already baked in because they've done it before, just changing where it loads the content from.

I think Greedfall was really special. A fantasy take on the American colonies is right up my alley. It was a pretty cool game with a great concept from a small studio.

I'm so glad Greedfall 2 was greenlit and I'm excited to see what Spider(?) Can do with a bigger budget. It was a bit eurojank but if they manage to make it a full open world I'll be very happy.

And what's up with it not showing you the thread once you click on the notification? It shows me the post, and says it's showing me the single thread with the new comment, but it doesn't show me anything. I have to show all comments and go find my original comment. I can't wait for boost.

Yeah, it's an old house and I'm not paying for gigabit internet because whenever I have I've literally never gotten the advertised speeds. I'm sure it's good enough for 99% of people, I have the best internet of all my friends lol. But yeah, you won't get the full gigabit speeds through copper wires if that's what you can get from your router in other ways.

Pretty sure nowhere apart from ugly new builds and student housing really gets modern internet speeds in the UK. I got one dude who's still in the same city as me on like 10mb/s. My other friend just bought unlimited 4g because it's better than their shit WiFi.
