For me it’s because I don’t use it very often, mostly just archiving stuff every few months or so.

Thanks for answering your own question, this is useful information.
I like the dashes, they make the options look like options to me.
I understand and sympathize with Rob on a spiritual level.
How’s progress on OAuth2? I know previously you (understandably) said it wasn’t a priority this early, but is it on the greater roadmap?
That’s called OAuth2, it’s a security feature. By logging into the official UI and that UI returning a login token, potentially malicious mobile apps are prevented from stealing your login credentials. For Lemmy the majority if not all of the current mobile clients are safe, but if a malicious one sprouts up it could use native login to steal your credentials and store them on a malicious server.
I hadn’t heard of it either, this is super useful! It’s funny the things you’ll find just around the place on Lemmy.
It’s really cool they’re considering a Mac version of Proton, it shows to me a more genuine attempt to improve the gaming ecosystem than I’d expect from most companies.
I’m taking a more free-spirited approach to my instance, communities can be formed as the users please here. The ideal would be lots of medium-sized instances each with a few large communities, but ultimately people will join where they want and we don’t have much control over it.
Funnily enough, Sync seems to load communities from URLs on my local instance just fine. I suppose features like that are the best part of using a well-built third-party app.
In my experience, CLIs are easier to design but harder to design well. Because of that, when I find a good CLI tool it runs as smooth as silk, but I would easily take a decent GUI over a shitty or rushed CLI.
I switched to Linux last year, and have been having a mostly smooth single-player experience. It’s not perfect, but the improvements that have been made in Linux gaming (in large part by Valve) are undeniable.
Indeed. Cookies for small data and web storage for larger data have made it completely feasible to cache data on a web browser, then combined that with web browser caching and I’m sure it can’t be that much better than the apps.
Damn, imagine posting about piracy to the piracy community. That’s crazy!
I use the streaming services I have for unrelated reasons (included with something else usually) in a half-hearted attempt to support the creators, but I will pirate most viewing media (TV + movies) by default now.
I too look forward to all of our websites looking like they’re from the 90s upon the abolition of CSS.
That’s wack. Passphrases are second only to random passwords generated by a password generator in terms of security, character proximity doesn’t matter with that much length.
They do the job but they are clunkier to use and use significantly more memory and processing power than the primitive data types. Use them if you need them, but don’t use them when a primitive would do the job just as well.
At least refactoring the code can make the bug easier to find. What I hate is when I spend hours looking for a bug because I missed a single line in some documentation and misunderstood how something in the project worked, that always hurts.
It probably used some weird webview shit they routed through Edge, so when you uninstalled it the entire system broke.
