I prefer just about every third-party UI to the official one…

Don’t forget Playlet for Roku!

• Windows: FreeTube
• Android: NewPipe
• Roku: Playlet

The trifecta!

is anyone aware of how to properly link comments on lemmy?

As far as I know, there is no way right now. There’s some discussion of having a more agnostic identifier here, but seemingly no movement yet.

https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/2987

The best you can get right now is using an extension like Instance Assistant for Lemmy, but that only helps you, not the person you’re responding to.

That said, if you use a mobile app (I use Thunder) it will usually handle post/comment links in-app, so it doesn’t matter what instance they link to.

Whoa that’s cool! It works in Thunder!

It’s very optimistic to think people will be able to describe what they’re going to do before they do it. I find things rarely go exactly as planned and my commit messages usually include some nuance about my changes that I didn’t anticipate.

A Roku stick requires the Roku streaming service to be functioning to be useful.

That’s not true at all. You could use a Roku with only Plex/Jellyfin and it would be immensely useful.

I see it more like the browser group wanted it to be a ‘real’ browser and not held down by having to be compliant with the hobby OS. But that’s just my reading from the outside. :)

They mentioned being more open to OSS packages, which probably wouldn’t work on Serenity.

Didn’t they recently get bought by Canva? Not saying that’s a good or bad thing, but it’s something to keep in mind.

Don’t fret, I think a lot of us are on a long-term journey to de-Google. I’ve actually found that changing browsers is one of the easiest things to do, especially with the ability to import your bookmarks and such. With Firefox Sync, you pretty much have the same functionality as you would with your Google account signed into Chrome.

Thanks!

Wow I almost forgot the original name! I was skeptical it would catch on, as name changes are very hard, but fortunately it was very early on and I bet a lot of other people have forgotten as well.

I don’t understand what this is, can you explain? Apologies if it’s obvious.

I run a “public” instance with basic auth so I can use it from anywhere (phone, work). I’ve made my instance my default search engine everywhere. (I know basic auth is not the most secure but I wouldn’t even really care it other people used my instance; I just don’t want it hammered.)

Make sure to put the word spoiler on the first line after the colons for it to get rendered correctly.

I’ve been really impressed by Dart as a programming language. I’ll admit I don’t have a breadth of knowledge, but coming from C# I feel right at home, and it has a few extra neat tricks that C# is picking up in return (like empty list syntax and the spread operator).

Thanks for this clarification! That is slightly more palatable.

I’ve been trying to explain to someone recently why rebasing and force pushing their feature branch has no benefit when we use a squash commit strategy for merging to main.

While you’re 100% right, is there anything wrong with this approach? Sometimes I like to keep by personal branches clean, especially before I open a PR.

Here’s one for Wear OS / Pixel Watch.

EDIT: And a terminal one.

All three of those work in Thunder!
