I’ve been quite pleased with Neo Launcher
A build hasn’t been released on GitHub for awhile, but there is an active branch and a more recent build on the telegram/matrix chat. The 0.9.3 version has worked well enough for me.
I haven’t used the features but in the Drawer section of the settings, there is “Categorise Apps” and “Second tab for Work apps”.
I do wish that Nova was open source, that’s basically the only reason I switched.


I do like the idea of leaving the curation of content in the hands of the user.
I think the mentality should be more common, and the tools should make it easy, to filter out content the same way it’s easy and common to follow a community/topic that adds to your feed.
Almost all social platforms have a method at the forefront to “see more content like this” but a lot don’t have “see less of this”, and if they do, it’s a buried setting.
It’d be really interesting for mods and admins to get a list of users’ exclude list, either of post keywords or user blocks, to see trends and stats on the content that people don’t want to see.
I assume I’d have the same problem with graphene.
There’s a list of bank apps that work in Grapheme. You can check for yours here

Sublinks
Thank you! I have been trying to remember the name of “that other” link aggregator since I first heard about it two years ago.
I kept thinking about it and getting it confused with Substacks.


The bottom one is used to give more room when you sit down or need to get stuff from your pockets.


Honestly, this is just the way it should be. Searching is fundamentally different than trying to access a website.
I love trying to search for something like “node.js” but can’t because it thinks it’s a website…
I think I know where in the code this could be happening for the web UI.
I’m not one of the devs but I’ll look into this a bit, I’ll update this comment when I get more info.
I believe ! should be changed to [!@] in this line
https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy-ui/blob/129fb5b2f994e02bfecc36e3f6884bdbf485b87a/src/shared/config.ts#L47
And another elseif(match…) needs to be added for @ after this line
https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy-ui/blob/129fb5b2f994e02bfecc36e3f6884bdbf485b87a/src/shared/markdown.ts#L127


Yes, there was Teams (classic) and Teams (new. There’s also Outlook (new) and Outlook (classic).
There was the Snipping Tool and Snip & Sketch, it even said they were getting rid of Shipping Tool, but then they got rid of Snip & Sketch instead but the function of Snipping Tools is the same as Snip & Sketch.


This is not to be confused with the application called “OneNote”, that’s staying.
You can always trust Microsoft to make two version of the same application and to have really bad naming.


In hindsight, I wrote that line after seeing some code on Github that I thought was for ActivityPub, but when I went back to it later I realised it was for Mastodon.


It’s a bit confusing because each action on the Fediverse uses the same universal language, but each service translates that language into their own specific rolls for their service.
Lemmy upvotes use “Like” which is common language in ActivityPub but down votes use “Dislike” which is not* also used in the ActivityPub language. It’s up to the other services how they interpret that. Mastodon favourites use “Like” but it has nothing for “Dislike”. Mastodon boost uses “Announce” which is what Lemmy uses for posts and comments to a community.
There are also some actions that use the ActivityPub language on both services but one simply just doesn’t send that action to the other service. Mastodon users can follow Lemmy users but Lemmy users cannot follow any users. I think Mbin does allow following users.
From the Lemmy ActivityPub documentation
An upvote for a post or comment send an ActivityPub Like action
Users can send posts or comments to a community which the community forwards to its followers in the form of Announce.
From the Mastodon ActivityPub Documentation
ActivityPub Like is transformed into a Favourite.
ActivityPub Announce is transformed into a boost on a status


I had to get someone to find a wireless keyboard they left in a random box because they never used it, yet they still connected the USB receiver for it.
If there’s anyone who has any valuable input about multiple accounts, it’s this guy.


We’re just poking for a bit of fun. The Free and Open Source rabbit hole goes very deep. For example, Intel and AMD processors have code on them that isn’t free meaning the purists will not use them unmodified.
Everyone has a threshold where privacy and freedom interfere with convenience, just stick with the level you’re comfortable with.

I’m sure “pixeld” would be pronounced like “pixelled” but when I saw it my immediate thought was “pixel dee”.
While I do like the “pixelled” pronunciation, I think “pixelfed” is less ambiguous and it’s clear what service it is running.


Why cross-post to the same community this was already posted to?
I’ve been here for awhile and have a pretty good understanding of how federation works. Number (3) was a very concise way to explain how the All feed works. I sort of knew but that really helped me understand.
Number (7), I will suggest the use of the cross-posting feature. Post to the larger community for engagement but also cross-post to the smaller communities to help them grow. Quiet communities are a cat-and-mouse game where people don’t post or comment because no one else is. The more people start to engage, the more others will start to engage.
There was this animation of a cuckoo clock floating on a black background. The bird would pop out and start rocking to the song Should I Stay or Should I Go by The Clash.
The only context I have is that it was around the turn of the millenium, on an old Macintosh LC computer.
