I went from Nova > Lawnchair Beta > Smart Launcher and its been amazing. Subscription based but I bought the lifetime version for $20 cause its that good. Lawnchair is basically MIA and Nova sold out to advertising/tracking.
Not sure if Smart Launcher is okay in that aspect but it is packed with features and still being updated. All the options outside of these three arent good imo and I would rather use stock.
Qt all the way. Funny thing is that if you choose to use GTK on Qt it looks decent but god forbid you use Qt on MacOS Gnome you have a terribad experience.
Twitter didnt force signing in before muskrat owned it, sure they definitely made it annoying but it was possible. Ever since the takeover Ive left and never looked back. Well I actually tried to look at stuff but its now incredibly limited to just viewing individual tweets.
Twitter isnt that important and there are better alternatives being worked on right now that you should give your attention to. Similar to how you came to Lemmy instead of Reddit.
I would argue it is better this way. Why? well there are no ways to personally identify people on lemmy as its still mostly anonymous. You decide how personal you want to get. Also gets rid of the buying and selling altogether which means no money is made. Well atleast I would assume so.
Its like selling the data of 4chan users, or forum posters. All publically available yet who would actually bother other than youtubers reading them for stories.
I used to have 3 but switched to 1. Makes my back and shoulders feel a bit better since my neck isnt so high anymore.
But then it probably works on Android.
Im with Kagi on this. Wtf is wrong with someone sending you emails to an email you decided to make public. This person is projecting how fragile their argument is by reacting this way.
Vlad was doing the right thing discussing it in private first before they probably address this stupid attempt at causing drama. I read all of the shit they posted and it sounds to me like they are nitpicking/strawmanning AI features which are very VERY optional.
