  • That's literally not the case. If you've purchased the app the ad logic isn't loaded, your porn habits aren't being tracked.

  • The thrill of flying a 747 in flight simulator quickly wears off when you realise large planes are really fucking dull.

    After takeoff you turn on autopilot and there's fuck all to do for the next few hours apart from occasionally twisting the heading knob, or setting up the ILS approach for the landing.

    It may actually liven the experience up if you have to deal with passenger complaints when you mistakenly over prescribe alcohol. You need to give the passengers enough to get them lethargic but not so much they reach the angry or depressed stage.

  • I guess the kind of innovation they're hoping to see from ubisoft is a WWII game from the axis perspective.

  • From what I can see a wordpress plugin uses an icon you disagree with. You'd rather they use something else. Rather than approach them constructively you post your emotional response as an issue on their repo? What response are you expecting from the maintainers?

    frontline is shifting

    Why all the militaristic language?

  • This really just shows how inefficient human communication is.

    This could have been done with a single email:

    Hi,

    I'm looking to book a wedding ceremony and reception at your hotel on Saturday 16th March.

    Ideally the ceremony will be outside but may need alternative indoor accommodation in case of inclement weather.

    The ceremony will have 75 guests, two of whom require wheelchair accessible spaces.

    150 guests will attend the dinner, ideally seated on 15 tables of 10. Can you let us know your catering options?

    300 guests will attend the even reception. Can you accommodate this?

    Thanks,

  • If you want to be taken seriously you should re-word your issue and the title.

    Be explicit about:

    • what icon you prefer,
    • include a graphical example
    • include examples where it's used to back up your claim that it's the "actual fediverse symbol "
    • highlight the issues with the current icon,
    • include an example of the icon you disagree with.

    The issue you've linked is literally just a complaint with zero context.

  • When I posted that the comment I was replying to was sitting at -13

  • I guess I'm just legitimately confused about how to feel about it all.

    The freedom of Lemmy and the fediverse let's people choose how to interact with it.

    If a user is looking for a free to use , open source, ad-free experience then that's their choice.

    If others are happy to pay for an app because they prefer the experience that app provides them they can choose to do so.

    I also wouldn't spend time in my day coming into defend organizations that want to monetize on open source community projects either.

    OP read that Boost may contain code used for tracking, then started spewing some conspiracy that "Boost is tracking your data for profiling and more!" without any proof or any actual research.

    This isn't a case of defending some giant corporation, it's just stopping tedious drama before it spreads.

    If you check OPs profile they've been spreading this for over a week. When I first saw this thread the masses were heavily upvoting the conspiracy and downvoting anyone disagreeing.

  • You're being downvoted for providing true information that disputes sensationalism. This place is truly fucking weird

  • This is a rather sensationalist headline.

    Every so often software developers need to eat food and live beneath shelter.

    The developer of Boost @rmayayo@lemmy.world provides a free version that's supported by ads, or you can purchase an ad free experience for a one time cost. That's been a standard business since forever.

    There isn't any grand conspiracy here.

  • Your comment "This question does not belong here." currently has 22 downvotes and 1 upvote.

    To me that suggests your view is in the minority.

  • There was a discussion about "ghost communities" a few days ago:

    https://feddit.uk/post/24499702

    People are quick to create communities but they sit unused, attract few posts and fewer subscribers. Often the mods move on so even if new posts were to appear they'd be unmoderated.

    The simple reason for that is there isn't enough demand. Lemmy is still small it's too early to be spinning out ever more narrowed niche communities. If you think content belongs elsewhere then report it to the mods and let them decide. If they see a surge in unwanted Q&A topics then they can amend posting guidelines to direct people elsewhere or to a Q&A thread or something.

  • Creating a new community for one question is insane.

    If there's a surge in questions not relevant to 90% of readers then sure but Lemmy isn't there yet

  • Pretty sure the staff are just giving guests the figurines and then management are surprised that guests thought they were gifts.

  • They're completely irrelevant to the average person.

    If you want absolute perfection then sure, stick with Chrome but implying Firefox on GrapheneOS is insecure is misinformation.

  • Is there an easy way of seeing the preceding emails in a threaded format?

    I read some posted yesterday that were related but it's damn confusing whether the conversation has been active in between?

  • You didn't screw up, you beautifully proved why the CLI is never a simple solution.

  • It's not going to happen. Labour need to put funds towards fixing the NHS and other state services systems that have been systematically dismantled by the conservatives.

    With America isolating itself times are uncertain so funding has to be set aside to deal with inevitable turmoil.

    Finally, European nations need to decide whether to accept America handing Ukraine over to Russia or if they continue to support Ukraine. Even if Europe withdraws resources from Ukraine there needs to be a reassessment of military spending because NATO doesn't look particularly reliable right now.

    There simply won't be anything left to pledge towards a climate revolution.

    This answer is probably the best here. It's concise and answers your questions in a reasonably unbiased way.

    A lot of the other answers are dripping with personal bias and a few verging on conspiracy.
