Oof, my bad, posted the message without completing it. I was gonna say that PayPal is a bad payment method cause it doesn’t take into account the intricacies of local payment methods despite being used as an sort of international method to transfer money (The play store is a fantastic payment method for instance, almost makes me wish for Google to take on PayPal). Credit Cards are also bad cause you need an international one and it isn’t always easy to get it.

It’s more of a frustration thing rather than guilty, mostly because it is possible, but not convenient. KDE isn’t the only thing I’d like to donate to, but it also uses PayPal

Yes, except none of those are the most convenient payment method for online purchases in my country, even credit card requires an international one IIRC, furthermore, it is a pain to figure out a proper amount cause it uses Euro. The minimum € 3,00 isn’t a huge amount converted to my local currency, but it isn’t a small amount either.

So you end up with something that is too much of a hasle even if you had the cash and wanted to donate. Cause you can’t stop thinking along the lines of “even if I wanted to deal with all of this the amount I’m giving isn’t going to change that much”

1. I’m broke

2. PayPal is horrible and inconvenient

I think the best solution is to have a… Link? To the general setting.

Having duplicated settings across multiple settings page is something that I think is an issue. Cause it isn’t obvious to the user if the setting is actually shared between the two pages or if it has two different options with the same name. It also doubles cognitive load to the user, as if they have a Touchpad and Mouse they need to remember both pages have the same setting.

A link is more of a way for the designers to tell the user “Hey, we know what you are trying to find, but it is in another place”

I honestly don’t remember any app that actually lost their brand or individuality. People complain that MD makes app all look the same, but the only apps that actually implement MD are the ones that don’t have a very strong UX/UI Design in the first place. Spotify, Firefox, Meta Apps and such are never actually going to implement Material Design itself, at most they are going to read the guidelines and go “yeah, that seems fair” and implement their own solutions based on Google’s idea.

Even if a social network loses 99,99% of the user base due to charging to use it, those left are the ones that see no problem paying to use it, so they are more likely to eat up some insane pricing, which would help recoup losses from a smaller user base. Basically whales.

I think the only way to try to kill a social network is by going full scorched earth on it. Remove all your comments, or change them to be an annoying copy pasted comment about why you’re getting off the platform. And even then I don’t think it is helpful, I did that with Reddit but was forced to leave technical posts intact because I feared I might prevent someone from solving their issue.

I’m running on an i3-2310M with 4 GB RAM without issues, I’m on Linux, tho

It explicitly calls out that there shouldn’t be masks

icons should be clean edges; the layers must not have masks or background shadows around the outline of the icon.

And icons are XML files, or fancy SVGs, I was under the impression it would just pick apart the shapes and force all the fills to be the same color.

I even tried doing some fancy work with dithering, but it didn’t render

Wait, where is it explicitly mentioned? I’ve done a redesign of the icon for a popular Android app. While reading the documentation, I was under the impression that whatever is on the monochrome layer would receive the same color, no matter the fill that was used.

Wait, holup. The second icon has the circle as a slightly different shade of green. How did that happen?

Bottom. It is frankly weird how long it took me to grow used to it, but it is the only position that makes sense.

I’m also liking the slow change from dialogs to bottom sheets

uBlock was already available for Firefox for Android

Alright, so what extensions are you guys looking forward to? On mobile I don’t think about it too much cause most of the websites I use on Desktop I use as apps on Android, so a couple of website specific extensions are useless for me
