I still have rif on my phone for it's sentimental value. Two years ago it took a while to get used to opening Connect for Lemmy instead of rif.

Goodness gracious. I hope you eventually got rid of the popup.

I sometimes wonder why some programmers don't use vim. Aren't they lazy enough to be bothered about unnecessary work and "friction" you have to deal with when using ordinary editors. I'd rather do the interesting parts of the job and command the computer to do the rest. Of course the communication with the computer has to be as concise, as effortless, and as easy as possible.

There are a host of other deliberate annoyances Amazon has created to make sure the tablet is used for their purpose rather than your own.

Do you have some examples? Sounds both horrible and interesting.

I like to read this word the same American way Louis Rossmann once said it if it's written like this. If it's written smörgåsbord my inner voice gets a Swedish accent.

Does moccamaster make percolators too? I've only seen their filter coffee makers.

Oh. I just assumed it didn't have that option on linux either because macOS cal doesn't have it.

Very useful for having a quick glance at calendar. Although it's annoying that there's no option to have week start on monday.

Regex Crossword. Unfortunately it doesn't have as many puzzles as the non-FOSS alternative.

Everything is enshittification. And you better like GNU/Linux, or else...

before you say "fuck this, fuck you"

FTFY 🙂

 

Although Linux is just used to run superior OS in VM. Same as using Internet Explorer to download Firefox.

 

There seems to be many lemmy apps available. I already tried few apps though I don't even know where to find most of the others. Instead of trying every single one of them I'd like to know if there's anything similar to RIF. Here's some key features of RIF:

  • Simple. Mostly text and no complicated UI elements.
  • Information density. I can see a list of eight posts on my screen. Again, it's just text with no UI decorations.
  • One handed browsing. As I hold my phone with right hand I can easily access both linked url and comments of a post with my right thumb (buttons on right side of the screen).
  • Comment navigation. This is not as important but in larger threads it's useful to navigate between parent comments.

If there's nothing similar available, maybe these could be added to an existing implementation. I could even try to help as I am programmer, though I don't know much about mobile app development.
