Same here. Im primarily a mobile user, so at this point my preferences are based on who has the better mobile UI. Looking forward to see these apps get more stable and steady!
I used sync for reddit a long time, then switched to Boost. I'll likely use Sync once it's developed here unless something blows me away before then. I'll also donate or pay for good apps to support them.
Ahhh that sounds so nice ☺️ I’m a homebody so I recharge best at home, on my couch and the AC high so I can bundle under blankets while reading a book!
Sounds super cosy! Do you tend to read relaxing books? There are so many thrillers and exciting page turners which are great but I'd like to read something very calming, if such a thing exists.
One of my favorite cozy reads is howls moving castle by Dianne Wynne Jones and that series as a whole. If you’ve seen the movie, the book has enough differences that it’s completely worth a read.
I really dig kbin's interface, so much that I haven't really explored Lemmy too much. My main issue with Lemmy is that the threaded indenting is so minuscule that it might as well not even be there.
I've been using Lemmy since a couple of weeks ago, but I've made an account here to see what the fuzz is all about.
To be honest, I've already configured my desktop Lemmy experience to my liking so my view will be biased. On the other hand, I am finding the default UI here to be close to what I want to begin with.
What I find confusing, however, is all the extra stuff that Lemmy doesn't have. I already use Mastodon for microblogging, so I doubt I'd be using the microblogging aspect of Kbin.
I use the micro blogging feature inside magazines where I'm asking for help that doesn't require a link to anything. It acts like a standard forum in that mode
I see, thanks! Let me see if I got you correctly. You can use the microblogging features of kbin to make text-only posts on magazines, right?
Actually, now that I've thought about it, you can just make microblog post on your Kbin profile, right? I guess that'd then be Kbin's equivalent of "posting to your own profile" back in Reddit (not that I've ever used that feature tho. lol!).
kbin for the win! Part lemmy, part mastodon. I can follow users on bookworm and mastodon. What's not to love. Add peertube and rss support and I never have to leave!
The mobile experience is not perfect, but it is improving and I hear there are apps on the horizon.
Lemmy needs just one click on an image and it enlarges the image just below the post. Kbin requires 3 clicks to see an enlarged image. Maybe this is a settings issue, and I am all ears on how to make kbin work like lemmy. But, for me, as of now, lemmy wins with this feature.
“…We’re going to make another submersible just like this one. Except we’ll use an XBox controller and the trips are going to cost $500,000 (so we can offset some of our expenses). Will that be check or credit card?…”
Probably. They got people to sign a waiver so they're probably partially covered, but there will no doubt be some law suits occuring and a lot of money going from both sides to pay for them.
even without credibility... I doubt very much that OceanGate has the liability insurance to cover the millions of dollars blown on the recovery effort. Not for a submarine that was never certified by a 3rd party, was never not-experimental (and was experimental to get around safety regulations...)
In fact, I would be very surprised that OceanGate had liability insurance, considering the risks involved. and that the only assurance the sub was in fact in good order is a giant "trust me, bro".
Is that why it had "five crew" and not "a pilot and four passengers?" 'Cause "passengers" would imply commercial use but this is crosses fingers a totally legit prototype with a "crew" of "mission specialists" simply "testing" it or some such?
but like if you've got people renting a submersible for science... Like the Triton sub... those are crew and not passengers.
you know... if I paid $250k for a ride... I'd expect seats. and maybe something other than a bottle to piss in. possibly more than a curtain so my shits don't get smelled by... everyone...
Have you ever been able to login? I had the same issue with Lemmy World and it was because I forgot to verify my email address, it doesn't tell you the issue you just get an endless spinning circle.
