OOoh I love the bottom left and middle right

Ope, ya beat me to it lol that’s what I’m using also

Yeah I think it’s pretty wack. If I search doordash then Uber eats will be the first result or if I search Uber eats then doordash will be the first result lol the ads are getting so extreme it pretty much evens out in the end and it’s all completely pointless aside from making everything more annoying for the user

I don’t think it will make enough of an impact for Alphabet to actually give a shit but I agree they’re getting out of control with the ads and I think a handful of people will start looking for alternatives. I recently switched from Google to Kagi and I set up Firefox to redirect all YouTube links to Piped lol I think a lot of people are already trying to find alternatives to Google products due to general enshittification but they’re so big I don’t really see it hurting them in any significant way. I would love to see something actually compete with YouTube though tbh. I personally try to use non Google alternatives whenever possible these days

That’s a good point actually

My brain 🫤

This line from Uncle John’s Band by Grateful Dead is really simple and maybe kinda cheesy but it’s given me motivation and kept me in check a few times:

Well the first days are the hardest days, don’t you worry anymore. 'Cause when life looks like easy street there is danger at your door

Im pretty sure someone made the wayland.social mastodon instance for that exact purpose lol

For android definitely moshidon! Stable version is material you and has a bunch of themes and extra features. Nightly version is updated frequently. Completely free and donation funded, it’s the gold standard for mastodon apps imo

Glad to hear this! I had them blocked already

I think you look great! I’ve seen a few comments that say this already, but don’t overthink it. Hope the interview goes well!

At this point the Onion has more accurate news than X

Well hey now let’s not rule out the dummy thick front butt lmao

I love the actual UI design with material you compared to the old material and holo design stuff but it’s just that automatic coloring that drives me crazy. And to make it worse, I can pick a custom accent color on my phone but it really only changes the quick settings buttons and then everything else is auto themed based on the wallpaper lol it drives me crazy

Material You/automatic color themes. I have a huge collection of wallpapers I’ve built up over the years and now I can only use a select few unless I want the entire phone os to be themed in ugly pastel colors like light brown or yellow or puke green. I literally just want an alternative option to pick my own color scheme or at this point I’d even be happy with the standard blue accent for everything instead of basing the entire os theme on random colors from my wallpaper. I also hate the rounded corners though! Especially the way phone displays are all rounded off and it just absolutely wrecks the resolution of everything. Having a camera sensor in the middle of the screen is kinda annoying too

I did the same thing! Sync is REALLY good and has some different features like the swipe to upvote stuff, etc but I just love the UX on boost. 'specially in compact mode. Reminds me of Old Reddit

I know some unofficial apps already have it but I like the idea of karma. Like nothing crazy with algorithms but just the summary of all the down/updoots on profiles

I’ve been putting some serious hours into No Man’s Sky the last few weeks. Lately I’ve been getting pretty hardcore about F-Zero 99 as well

I know I’m about five years late to the party but I picked up No Man’s Sky on sale a couple weeks ago and I’m having a lot of trouble putting it down! When it first came out I thought it was over hyped and maybe it was back then but I’m obsessed now. Lots of big updates since then
