Unfortunately, I am an Apple user lol. I don’t hate the products, but don’t care for Tim Cook, and I hate their labor practices. I also hate that they are anti-right-to-repair. I do appreciate the quality of their products and software. I hope the government slaps them with the biggest antitrust lawsuit.

Moving forward, I will be considering alternatives due to the ethics of their manufacturing. I am a big open-source supporter, and I understand that my support of Apple is a bit of cognitive dissonance. But I do wish Linux could find a way to deliver a product that feels as refined as a MacBook. I would be willing to donate to an effort to do so.

How expensive is it to host your own instance? Assuming you aren’t doing it in house.

How do I make it very obvious to Costco that I’m purchasing a memebrship because of this

Yeah. They have both case sensitive and case insensitive options when you format your drive. It used to default to case insensitive. I haven’t formatted my boot drive in a long time, so I can’t say what it defaults to today.

I want to be able to draw people into Lemmy by sharing a link to a Lemmy post. The issue is I’m on Voyager, and maybe the link is to the original post on lemmy.world. They see the post in a much uglier user interface. Kinda a turnoff from the fediverse.

Voyager has a web version, so send them that. But the way they handle linking and data fetching - from what I can tell - doesn’t guarantee a post will load if the viewer logs into a different instance than the person that shared the article. So you get a broken link. Also not fun.

I’m writing a client that solves this among other problems. A native app and website that look consistent across devices, scale up to take advantage of larger screens, and handle links consistently even if you’re on a different instance.

That way you get the best experience possible with the native app, and when you share a link, your friend sees the same post in a nice user interface that draws them in.

No ads is another great selling point that people will understand!
