Yeah no. Plaid is one thing but giving access to your bank login to pay an invoice is something quite another. If it's legit they can accept a card payment, or send you to a PayPal invoice.

Gotta have lashings of Bisto gravy, yorkies and good ol' British Maris Piper potatoes too. Occasionally carrot turnip mash if you're feeling posh. Cauliflower and broccoli if that's your thing. Served by Lynda Bellingham.

Americans know it as Apple Crisp, because the US has to perpetuate the myth than American English is anything but a bastardisation of an existing language and therefore have different words for the same thing.

And yes. Hot Ambrosia® custard, not ice cream, and not Birds®. Just as I was served at school dinners (which somehow bow are called lunch).

Or Colmans English Mustard. English Wasabi, I call it.

The 'small caps' really gave it away to me but I wasn't familiar with which book - thank you! The Death books were always very humanizing in an interesting way, His scenes were always my favourite.

Yeah, this checks out. They're "exept".

Reminds me of the short story podcast 'The Truth' episode - "They're Made out of Meat". In fact I think it may have been a short story I once read online beforehand, that they may just have dramatized. (?)

Sounds like they meant that for chat GPT...

Do the improved Chromium browsers all count as bad browsers now? I use Vivaldi. I'm not certain but I think DuckDuckGo's browser might be based on Chromium, too.

Vivaldi still displays a face. It's probably a Chromium thing.

When we used reddit, and you found a link on Google or in an email that went to reddit.com, it would open up that link in Boost. Same for the email notifications when you got an inbox message or a comment reply - following the link opened up your inbox in Boost, not your web browser.

Since there are an almost infinite number of instances to match the URL for, is this behaviour just not possible with Lemmy, by the nature of the fediverse?

I think I remember Android having a manual option to set default apps for certain links, so I'm going to try and set Boost the default app for links starting with my home instance. Not sure if Boost will necessarily understand the links though and how to process it..

 

What if reddit joins the fediverse? What are the implications for that if it were even feasible? We would end up with subreddits as communities on Lemmy such as [email protected], perhaps.

What are the community's thoughts on this, given the new app by Meta that has attempted to join our free society? Do we just defed, and hope that all the popular instances all do the same?
