Idk, usually people shut down their business if it can’t make a profit…

Its easier to just sign up and find everyone immediately, than to go learn what are instances and which one should you choose to make an account on, and then go and learn how to find other people that are not on that instance, or how to check do they have a mastodon account at all, then go and learn how to XY.

The “go and learn” is something that people, most of them, just don’t want to do. If you need to learn how to use something, this is the first indicator of a bad user experience. It should be obviously easy for a new person to get around.

Not everyone has coworkers like that.

Nobody bosses me around, I just work until I’m done, and I don’t need to manage my time, because I have all the time in the world working from home. Also, it feels like being in home prison, never seeing anyone you work with. Have the feeling some people exist only on computer screens.

I understand the benefits of working from home, but meeting other people in the office is what made it human to begin with. I miss chatting with people while getting coffee about non-work related stuff. I knew what was going on without needing a meeting or briefing. I could just work in the office on things I needed to work - which made it so I could go home earlier. Now I am just at home all the time, wasting my time in meetings. Idk, I wish it would work for me, but it just doesn’t. I need the social aspect of the office.

In comparison to the non-existing work-life balance in most remote positions where you are basically available 0-24? No thanks. I’d rather travel, the 20min in the morning is perfect to “wake up fully” and in the afternoon to decompress while getting home.

Their job is to maximize shareholder profit. That is their only and one true job as CEOs. If you want a CEO that is not evil, look for companies that are not public even though they could be.

He is not wrong tho… it’s the company interest vs employee interest. And I must say, as someone who works 100% remotely, sometimes I do wish we are all again at the office. It was so easier to know whats happening around you on the fly, instead of spending half a day in your calendar making or taking meetings.

Imagine… a 3+ day battery if the battery thickness would increase to make the back flat.

Thin phones are NOT the future, long battery life is.

I think there is a possibility to have a local client using Gmail, with a rule set to delete mails on Gmail as soon as they are synced locally. So in this case Gmail would be nothing more than a relay/proxy, while your mails would actually be offline.

It’s not that people ignore it, it’s just that they don’t really have an alternative. You can rent from Microsoft or Apple, or go the Linux way where you don’t have the proper UX an average user needs and is accustomed to with Windows or macOS.

Yes, but can you play modern games on Linux the same as on Windows? Even with anti-cheat software?

Xing.com, basically German LinkedIn.

This is so wild to me… as a software engineer, if my software doesn’t work 100% of the time as requested in the specification, it fails tests, doesn’t get released and I get told to fix all issues before going live.

AI is basically another word for unrealiable software full of bugs.

Compared to… San Francisco?

ProtonMail, with my own domain, so that I have full control over my online identity and Spotify. As a developer I don’t need anything else, I can work just fine with freely available stuff.

I think this is the first subsonic android client that is not an eyesore. I wanted to use something like this for a long time but the clients were simply to ugly and aesthetics are important to me. I will definitely give it a try and maybe even submit some PR if I find something missing and have time to contribute. You have my star.
