Works for me.

considering hopping onto a different instance because of this. Lemmy.world in particular always seems to be experiencing issues.

I can’t begin to comprehend what might be involved in transitioning from a “normal “ keyboard to something like this.

Did the same. Three story townhouse. To run Cat6 from top to bottom I went out, round the side of the house, up the wall, and back in.

The effort of achieving this in the average UK house is so much more than what I am guessing is OPs American house.

Crawlspaces don’t exist and we replaced sheetrock for double skinned solid brick walls.

Came to say this. Breakfast Club released in 1985.

I am a 53 year old gen X born in the 60’s. This film is of my generation’s culture, not someone born in the 90’s.

My choice of app is entirely based on what the contact uses.

Most of my family are on iOS so we use native iMessage and FaceTime.

I have a small group of friends that almost exclusively use discord.

Older non-iOS friends tend to use WhatsApp, younger ones Telegram.

Jesus. Never mind.

I can identify at least four of those icons.

Feel free to insert the equally stupidly large number of iPhone users for your particular geographic location.

I genuinely couldn’t get on with it for some reason.

On mobile I think it’s hard to beat Memmy.

It’s the desktop experience that I think is lacking.

I’m not trying to replicate the look of Reddit. In fact I think that was shittier on desktop and used it exclusively on my phone.

Alexandrite.app looks interesting though. Thanks.

I saw this, and it’s a decent paint job on the existing UI but I can help thinking how much I would like a dedicated client on windows.

I wasn’t necessarily looking for a Reddit clone. I am being spoiled by Memmy and want the same kind of customisable control on my PC.

Here’s some more info:

It was captured by a special camera called a Rapatronic, a camera system able to take photographs at a frame rate of 10 million frames per second.

So you’re saying WhatsApp isn’t fucking horrible to use on Android?

Here we go.

I use edge exclusively on Windows and have zero issues

Until cross platform messaging is a good as iMessage and FaceTime from an iPhones user’s perspective it’s going to be bad.

I have only ever used an iPhone (ignore non-smart phones) and have been weaned entirely on Apples stock apps. Conversely almost everyone I communicate regularly with is also an iPhone users. I do use other platform for communicating with non-apple friends but the experience is significantly poorer.

I couldn’t say how many people existed within this almost exclusively Apple ecosystem but I would hazard a guess that there are a few.

19.7 million UK iPhone users will care about this.

Enduring two back-to-back Friday afternoon meetings. I work with psychopaths.

Thankfully I work from home and can already start drinking!
