It’s not that I’m actively educating my daughters about LGBTQ+ yet but they are at the age of learning about relationships and any time we or they talk about “when I’ll have a boyfriend…” we will comment “…or girlfriend whatever you’ll like…” I mean I at least try to keep them open minded while not forcing it, at least if and when the time comes they’ll feel comfortable to tell us.
you know the drill i'm sure, let's not waste time. many of you have already noticed we've created the first batch of our six new communities, which are:...
edit: please don't mind me, I am just testing the comment feature. I will use my own comment from now, hope you won't be getting notifications, if you do, I apologize in advance :)
After many years of using custom stock ROMs on my phone's, that were always better and more up to date than the branded android ROM the phone came with, I've decided a few months ago to finally get a Google Pixel 6.
It's a great experience, basically feels like all the custom ROMs I've been using all these years but the camera is great and Google Wallet works, also some pixel exclusive niceties like the PO Pixel app from teenage engineering, etc, and as always the most up to date Android version available.
That's the whole problem with any social app right. Would be so happy to ditch Whatsapp for better alternatives but what's the point if no one I know is there.

Eu estou criando um app para Android e iOS inspirado no Infinity caso tenha interesse, se chama Beyond, e eu postei sobre ela aqui: https://beehaw.org/post/647773
While not mentioned in the list and no code was actually written towards Kbin yet, I do plan to support it and Mastodon if possible on Beyond when possible :)
Amarok 1.4. Loved that thing. Everything that came afterwards in both terms of version and other similar apps even the mainstream ones do not get close to how good Amarok used to be.
Thank you all for all your comments and suggestions. I'll go through them and try to answer as much as I can, I am generally quite busy on Tuesdays so I'll probably be able to do it later at night today. In any case I am happy with the amount of support!
It could have a different name on the app store than the actuall app, ie. on Play Store Infinity is named "Infinity for Reddit", but when instaled the app is named only "Infinity", I was considering a similar aproach, what do you thinkl?
Infinity is written in Java code specifically targeted to Android only, I am targeting both iOS and Android with the same code using React Native (maybe even web in the future but it's a little more complicated due to CORS);
I have worked with React for at least the past 4 years, so using React Native now for me feels like almost no learning curve at all, while if I'd be given a Java-based Android codebase now, I'd probably need to spend the first week figuring out the basics :)
Thank you all for your suggestions, as some have suggested above, I think I will probably go with Beyond, as Buzz Lightyear says, "To Infinity and Beyond!", seems like a good way to honor Infinity but also look at the future beyond.
Definitely sounds like a good way to go, I believe I will allow to add multiple anonymous accounts where users can enter only a instance name and no username/password.
Quick update today I worked on the sidebar, I've hidden the items buttons that still don't do anything, added some icons, created a nice card for the logged in account. The only thing I am still not happy with is the contrast of the account name vs the background image, so I will look into something to fix that soon.
I am still not sure where to post this those kind of updates, maybe a community is not such a bad idea but I cannot create communities on beehaw, maybe I will create one on another instance and mod it from this account. In any case, I will post that info here too.
Another update, with basic post and comments view ready, we should be soon approaching an alpha release date so you all can have a look by yourselves :)
Just another quick update, I got the domain beyond.onl and I'm planning to run a small Lemmy instance there. I probably won't be allowing account creations but I will be creating some official communities for Beyond announcements there.
The idea is to have a community where you can follow for new post updates about Beyond and comment, suggest features and improvements etc.
I will probably host it somewhere like Azure, I am not sure, as I have no idea of the costs associated with it, so I will be taking it very slowly and see how that will turn out. Maybe at some point I will open it up for new users too, let's see :)
I realized I haven't post anything new in a couple of days, so here's another quick update, made tons of improvements already and have also identified a few points for future improvements that I will be addressing soon.
All posts and comments action buttons work now, so you can upvote, downvote, save, share, etc, all the basic things you'd expect are there.
Today I also started working on the commenting feature, so you can reply directly to a post or a comment in a post. This isn't ready yet but there's a bunch of progress. As soon as this feature specifically is ready, I believe I am ready to announce an alpha version. Keep in mind this is very much barebones, with the minimal functionality to keep it usable and fun. There aren't any customizations or settings yet, but slowly we will be getting there. I will also be happy to collect some of your feedback.
I'm curious what exactly you mean with "better modding tools". I am working on a iOS/Android app and I'm wondering if those are tools I could integrate into it.
I'm looking for PC games that I can play while listening to podcasts- games that don't have engaging cut scenes or important dialogue, games that honestly don't require a lot of skill or thought....
Oh the music alone is worth it :) I sometimes find myself listening to it at work, and if you leave the suggestions on after it's done what follows is also incredible, found a lot of cool indie games based on that, GRIS is a good example.
thanks! I am planning to release a pre-alpha version probably this week, I will make sure to ping you when it's done. The plan is to have a MVP to release with at least the ability to login, properly show posts in a good looking card, upvote/downvote, see the post's comments and add basic text comments. Most of that is done already besides commenting which is what I will focus on this week.
Later I wanna add dark mode support, followed by custom theming support, swipe upvote/downvote actions, rich text comments with image upload, a proper video and GIF player, multiple accounts support, that will be the beta or maybe a version 1.0. After that I will probably create a community and taking users feedback :)
I am actually writing a better Android/iOS/Web client for lemmy :) not sure when it's gonna be ready though as I am already busy enough but keep an eye for an announcement maybe in the next month or so :) the idea is that its heavily inspired on the Infinity client for reddit.
if I am subscribed to communities from those instances, does that mean I am not goin to see new posts from them anymore or comment in their posts?
Also, if someone from those instances are subscribed to communities from beehaw, does that mean they cannot see new posts from beehaw neither post or comment?
Serious question, as I‘ve barely seen any mention of Lemmy on Reddit. None of the Mod posts regarding the Blackout mentioned Lemmy as far as I‘m aware. Would it be against the TOS to start a coordinated promotion?
There's a thread about how people find new books, and one of my favorite ways to find things to read was browsing comments from the weekly 'What are you reading' threads in r/truelit and r/books. So what is Lemmy reading?...
