I fully agree. And it feels great to do something you believe in without expecting to recognized for it. I just tried to give an alternative to comment awards that would limit the visual noise.

You said there are NO trackers and I see 146 tracking attempts. It doesn't matter how much data they collect, what you said is not right. Even the dev said that trackers are disabled when you get the ad free version which implies that trackers do exist otherwise. I have no horse in this race but it's hard to have a discussion when people use such definitive and inaccurate statements.

I could kinda tolerate Reddit gold as an alternate way to donate. But then they added a boatload of awards and it just became annoying visual noise. I blocked all awards and I'm suprised there are people who miss them. Why not add a donator badge to user profiles if you want some kind of value for your donation?

Good for you. It' nice to have different options! I prefer to play at home so I'd rather have my games on the big TV.

I'm running my emulators just fine in dev mode.

Thank you so much! That would be awesome. I can only offer you an invite for Tildes in return.

How did you get an invite? I'd love to join but the waiting list seems really long right now.

Hmm... if you convert each byte to little endian floating point, you'll get a latitude/longitude of 1.09301/1.10702. And those coordinates lead to a point right in the north atlantic ocean. Is this where you hid the body?! gestures wildly

Oh right... I went into full conspiracy mode when it should have been pretty obvious. (Or maybe you just want us to believe that...)

But maybe you could explain the secret of your username? Is it unicode for the chinese word "乏" which means poor/tired? Is it some magic number or boot signature? I need to know!!

 

I love the style that was implemented for https://old.lemmy.world and https://old.lemmy.sdf.org. Are there any plans to add something similar for this instance? (Not sure if an old subdomain is the right choice for this, since there is already a theme selection in the profile settings.)

Thanks for your work!

Why would you not be able to bypass news paywalls? As long as one user pays for the service they can then crawl the site and host the content on a separate site.
