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.
What’s a windows?
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!
Yes, that’s exactly what I do when I rename lol
Most of my frustration comes from combining cases insensitive folders/files with git and then running my code on another machine. If you aren’t coding where you have hundreds of files that import other files, I could see this being a non issues.
On Mac when I rename a folder from “FOO” to “foo” git sees them as the same folder so no change is committed. In JavaScript I import a file from “foo” so locally that works. Commit my code and someone else pulls in my changes on their machine. But on their machine the folder is still “FOO” so importing from “foo” doesn’t work.
…and whoever decided a file system should be case insensitive by default, I hate you.
It won’t be multi-window in the sense that you can browse two feeds at once or have a feed and post open at the same time, but it will take advantage of the larger screen.
I do think the multi-window feature is cool. I think there is room for a few really good Lemmy apps with slightly different philosophies. Another example is I’m not planning on being as gesture-driven as Voyager. If you like gestures, Voyager is a great app! It’s possible I will change my mind later, but for now I have a design in mind.
Sync is Android only, right? My Apple will work on Android, iOS, MacOS, and web.
How do I make it very obvious to Costco that I’m purchasing a memebrship because of this
