They're big but not even close to goliaths, their 24h online is at 40k more or less, which is nothing like CSGO or apex... Their all time high is less than apex daily active sadly.

I'm not saying their system is bad, but I am saying that it is still not tested for a large scale though.

Windows 11 just isn't enticing Windows 10 users to upgrade, and its market share is actually falling in c/technology

I thought I was alone in this lol

Win11 literally made me rage uninstall it after I got mad trying to remove all bloatware and then it showed me onedrive ad

Pretty sure it's crazy expensive on a large scale, I don't think that people will pay monthly fee to keep playing apex/val/insert game. And more than sure these companies will try to force players to pay for it :/ Previously I had a small chat with aimlabs devs about application of neural networks for it (detecting weird patterns and irregularities, that what NNs are good at as well) but as I understood it would be expensive as well since obviously you want to run the model on your backend's side... It's and endless war between both sides without silver bullet ATM and I don't really understand why people are so mad about my comment lol

Why are there so few open source weather apps for iOS, compared to the very many that are on Android? in c/[email protected]

[–] delirium 0 points 1 year ago

Yes its one time for android, if you're earning money with ads or purchases, google will take 1/3 of that amount, then you will have to figure out taxes on your own and there's also some special policies for selling online goods in India, but if you're just making apps - its one time fee to be able to upload them to google play store, or you can just distribute with froid/github for free, which is a great route as well

From the perspective of FOSS developer:

I simply don't want to pay €100 every single year to Tim Apple to make a free hobby app.

Android has more ways to distribute, and the "official" way is one time €25 fee and that's it.

New Name, version and migration to new community (lemmy.world)

submitted 1 year ago by delirium to c/fennec

Today, with the release of 0.1.1 I decided to rename this app to Arctius, to stop the confusion with OS Firefox fork called Fennec.

New home for the app's updates: [email protected]

New things in the 0.1.1 include fixes for posting in mod-only communities, some typo fixes, new tab in settings to edit profile (display name, bio, email - for now that's all) and image uploading for posts. Post with link to new release, and all new posts will be created in new community. Cheers.

0.1.0 Release and app's name vote (github.com)

submitted 1 year ago by delirium to c/fennec

5 comments fedilink

As I'm getting tired of linking same post over and over about app's name and since it seems as a major concern for some people, I've decided to hold a vote for future name of this app.

Have variants, think that current or my proposed name is fine, or anything else -> comment here. Let your voice be heard.

Current variant I'm thinking about:

Silverfox - no similar names on froid, some similar names on play store, that are not really popular anyways.

Don't forget to use Obtanium to get latest releases automatically. :)

How to get latest updates automatically (self.fennec)

submitted 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) by delirium to c/fennec

While we're not on the google play store, you can use Obtanium.

Short tutorial:

download Obtanium
go to "Add App"
type in "https://github.com/nick-delirium/lemmy-fennec/" to the first field and add the app.

Voila! Now you will get all new releases automatically or notified about it if you will chose "track only" mode.

0.0.8 is out (and 0.0.9 hotfix!) (github.com)

submitted 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) by delirium to c/fennec

I've been a bit slower lately due to taking a vacation, but I'm still making changes, new features and improving stuff that's here already :)

This updates brings comment/post editing, saved posts feed (inside "star" tab, neighbours with followed communities list) and some more smaller improvements

Small update: going to make a hotfix since post editing actually spawns a new post for some reason haha

Bigger update:

0.0.9 hotfix is out, download it instead: https://github.com/nick-delirium/lemmy-fennec/releases/tag/0.0.9

Patch 0.0.3 is Live (github.com)

submitted 2 years ago by delirium to c/fennec

I think, at this point, app is pretty stable and useable, I'm even planning to submit it to Google Play Store for private testing (mostly for the convenience of updating the app).

If you tried this or previous versions, hows your experience was so far? Don't be afraid to share your opinions, requests and spotted issues. My phone is pretty large and its the only way I test my own app, so maybe I'm missing something design wise? Are the lists (comments, posts) working fine and fast?

And, as usual, I'll be glad to have some contributions.

If you're reading this, you're one of the very first people who stumbled upon my app.

I figured that it will be easier to talk about lemmy inside lemmy, not just github, where not everyone has an account.
