For the common folks who use all Apple stuff, it’s largely true. Messaging, email, web browsing, office tasks, media consumption, all works as well as it could. It’s not as true for some more enthusiast tasks, but that’s not necessarily the core demographic Apple is after and it’s definitely not where the profits are.

There’s also the Files app too that Apple added that does give you a filesystem view, where you can tap files to have them opened in their associated application.

Legitimate repairability and pricing concerns aside, what parts exactly are you accusing of being straight from the dumpster? The GPU is insane for a low-power laptop, screen, speakers, trackpad are best in class. Keyboard is a matter of preference but by any objective measure it’s not bad, much improved from butterfly switches.

It requires that you make available the full source code to anyone who you give binaries too (like the GPL), but also requires you make available that source to users of the software over a network. So, someone could not make a proprietary fork of AGPL software to sell exclusively as a service. In order to provide that service you have to also be willing to provide the source, including changes, which would allow users to then choose to run that service themselves instead of being forced to pay the provider.

If Lemmy gets support for multi-communities and we can use flibpoard magazines as communities in lemmy, that would be incredible!

I think the key to avoiding the google chat trap again is that the private company needs to have way more to lose than to gain by killing federation. If a critical mass of flipboard’s users use it through ActivityPub, then ending that would hugely damage their business. Flipboard may be both large enough to bring a significant I flux of users and content into the fediverse, but small enough, especially if the federate with threads, to not be overwhelming.

SBF hasn’t been in the headlines as much recently.

I mean I think part of this is that the technology is reaching a point where emotion is actually reasonably emulatable.

Yeah for any sort of interviews I’d rather they kept the current convention of using a voice over, often after a 1-2 second clip of the original audio. It’s obvious that it’s a translation done by the media and not the exact original words of the source

Even the non-pros have OLED. I think it’s any iPhone with FaceID.

Idk why you’re being downvoted. I’ve tried Orion browser and it really does work. I assumed extensions like that would go against Apple’s App Store policies but they’ve seemed to make it works so far.

There is Firefox for iOS. It uses WebKit like every other browser.
