He does have great content and some great videos still that I enjoy, but it’s also clear he thinks he can understand and make a video about stuff he absolutely doesn’t understand.

The fall for me was when he fronted some random encrypted file sharing startup with very misleading marketing.

The MMX was doomed and not possible to save. It is exactly what it looks like: A cool looking contraption that can make some nice sounds using marbles, but it’s not an instrument you can use reliably in a band. You think it was hard for you to unsubscribe; how hard don’t you think it was for Martin to abandon the MMX? He wished it to succeed more than any of us, and probably abandoned it way too late because of it.

His goal wasn’t to create an art project though, but to create an actual instrument he can use. The artistry stuff and making it look cool was what made MMX a failure. I agree that the MMX videos were still fantastic content, but that thing was doomed.

Tightness: it’s a compound effect of every part, so afaik he’s just trying to make sure each part is as precise as possible, and selecting the most precise / consistent design out of the available choices.

I think he’s been incredibly consistent with his videos and don’t find any of his ads offensive or annoying, even though I’ll never buy something. I guess I disagree that the quality has changed. I do feel I’ve seen most content already though and he’s not doing much to keep interest growing.

I expect all you geeks to play What the Hex? and excel in it: https://yizzle.com/whatthehex/

I can’t lock it down to a specific hex, but my favorite palette is Synthwave

That’s a different application; this is feedback on the upcoming Proton Mail desktop app.

Lutefisk or Smalahove for Christmas dinner?

There was a post here just a few days ago about Proton Mail for desktop in beta on Windows and macOS, and coming to Linux as well next year.

It’s not entirely true. In Scandinavia for example, iPhone is the majority market share, on average higher than that of United States.

Non-EU countries in Europe that are not currently candidates or waiting to join, are Iceland, Liechtenstein, Norway, Switzerland, and now also UK.

Depending on how you measure, several of them are considered wealthy countries.

Luckily, there are easier ways to avoid poor content on Lemmy.
