I would like to point out that they are free to modify the source code before building the binary they distribute. Being open source does not mean protection from secretly stealing data.
With chrome it is obvious because the closed part is called chrome and the open is chromium. But it is certainly possible to not make “stealing” magic on top public.
One very simple things I try is updating the glorious eggroll proton version and force-use that. Changing the proton version sometimes (especially switching to an older one) requires deleting the compatdata (wineprefix folder) of the game.
I am on 1.49.5 but sometimes have a very weird problem with the preview of a webpage in the post. With this it is reproducible: https://programming.dev/post/23228069
When i click on this post in my feed, it opens and very briefly displays the google logo in the post. So it is only a split second there and this happens every time I open the post again. I assume it is some weird behavior with the link preview?
Edit: nothing major or blocker, just weird
You have been selected as winner, congrats!
Thank you! Not sure why I am incapable of finding these communities myself…
Thank you for mentioning this community out! Sadly, the sub count is a bit low :(
They list this community under “Related Communities” maybe this is possible here too?
Well, in essence yes. But I have seen enough mishandling and homegrown stuff of custom date-time calculations that this could get interesting. I suspect that there are a lot of systems where the TZ database is never updated which at least will result in shifted displayed local time.
Also, it is fun to get data from old programs and also from userinput where the actual offset has to be guessed from the timezone. And if that conversion data is old, fun is had. It does not matter how time is represented internally in this case.
Every time this topic comes up I wonder how many computer systems this will break. Maybe we find out soon if this is really realized.
From within the app, so that the button to switch to your home instance appears. Though, this might only be possible with posts and not communities I assume. To open it in a browser you can somewhat workaround it using “share source link”. This is the only way for me to currently I can think of. But then I have the (not so great) website and not your awesome app to browse :D
Also, would it be possible to automatically load the last draft for a comment? So I mean when you are going into the comment creation again, the app checks if there is a draft for this specific comment/post id.
Btw., the “show full context” turned out really nice for commenting!
Thank you! Would it be possible to add a link to the context menu of a post to view it from the original instance? I (still) have federation issues like with this and other communities so at least being able to read posts and comments would be nice.
For some very weird reason it never crossed my mind, and I really do not know why, that I could invest in a huge healthcare corporation whose target it is to provide as little healthcare as possible. But your comment made me think about that that is possible to do.
Because you can does not mean you should.
Such a bummer :( I really do hope that something finally works out for you!
I am somewhat in a similar boat. I have like one to two friends left and also looking for a partner. I never go out and only stay at home.
I know that this is definitely not for everyone but rather for a small minority, but I found and joined the furry fandom. They are loving and welcoming and so put my hopes into them. There is a high chance that there is a local meetup in your area but I have been too shy to attend yet. Instead, I opted straight for a convention which I think is a better starting point for me because it is more anonymous. Note, that this is just a suggestion since the convention did not happen yet and I am looking forward to it patiently.
I do hate that they made me donate twice by adding other apps later 😅
I am looking forward to attend the NordicFuzzCon. Looking into it more I found that they host Furovision every year (2024) and even had an Opera in 2024. Also their parade looked really nice.
Note: 1.44.4 has still not rolled out everywhere. I had to use the aurora store which allowed me to update.
Most code I forget too. For a lot of stuff I might vaguely remember when looking at it but some I would deny ever even having seen even when I wrote it (that happened). However, there are some rare parts I could probably still navigate from my previous company and there are some in my current. Really depends on the connection you have to the code.
