Ok, offline functionality does make sense

Why use an app when there’s a web site? In case of Wikipedia I fail to see any functional benefit for an app.

Street vendors beat chains every time

Or a page that uses only half the screen width in the center. Just use the damn screen!

Yeah, a one to one conversion might not be possible. Although this example also approximates the image by making it two tone and using simple shapes to compose more complex ones.

It still feels as a non-trivial task tho.

This feels a lot like vector graphics. I would imagine one could automate SVG to CSS translation.

uBlock usually blocks those cookie pop-us for me, didn’t really noticed them.

Slap Google SSO on that and you’re good. Honestly that’s worse than regular registration.

I think I like fantasy even more than sci-fi. Lord of the rings was awesome, both books and movies. I really liked The witcher books. I wouldn’t really say I have a strong preference to genre as long as the story is good. And execution of the story is even more important.

I mean, I like both, so that’s not it…

Definetly not scary, but I really liked it.

I just don’t like Star Wars and I like sci-fi in general. But Star Wars is just one of those stories I can’t make myself to like.

I remember fondly the prequels with pod racing and that red black guy with double lightsaber. I wached those movies as a child.

Later I tried watching all of them and I could not bring myself to finish even one. The dated effects (good for their time) just took me out of the story way too much.

I also tried waching the new ones, but they just felt boring so I dropped them.

I don’t know what is it about Star Wars, but I just can’t bring myself to like them even with nostalgia by my side.

Thanks

Good to know, actually

And then we have Chat control V2…

The outlined issues don’t seem to be lemmy exclusive, but then again, I’ve spent quite a short time here.

The toxicity is caused by the society, not by the platform. From my experience, one can always find a more toxic subreddit.

Reddit is just as much moderated by volunteers, that’s the reason I started using reddit. Also, having corporate admins doesn’t make the platform any more spam resistant.

If anything I would expect these problems to be more prevalent in smaller (lemmy) platforms and stabilize with growth to reddits level.

Now I’m not trying to defend lemmy, but being even more community driven I want it to succeed and become what reddit used to be.
