Latest version also has an instance explorer, that lets you open other instances in that same “view all” view.

Select “instances” in search, or long press a post from another instance>instance>visit instance.

They do still make good games, but that’s despite squenix.

Some instances are running on better servers than others, have staff that fix issues quicker and attend to updates sooner.

For example, .world is still on v18 while the rest of the threadiverse has mostly moved on to v19.

Some instances defederate certain other instances, so in some cases you might end up finding that a community you subbed to gets disappeared by the admins of your instance (lemmy.ml did this to ani.social a while back). Whether there are valid reasons goes case by case, sopuli.xyz for example blocks instances that are for porn, and I like it that way.

Though outward federation is a bit borked on there atm, so I’m using my alts…

But really, it doesn’t matter that much. If the grass looks greener, you can hop over the fence and see for yourself, and then hop right back if it turns out it wasn’t.

There’s not a lot of work that’s gone into using it on a tablet. It would be nice if posts got split into columns, like you can do with the feed.

Did they actually re-code the whole thing to make it native? You can ship a web app via the app store just fine. Only making changes to take advantage of the better system access that provides.

Pretty sure its still a web app under the hood.

A web app doesn’t magically turn into a native app when you put it on the app store. The way it gets installed, and the system access is different, and better for stuff like notifications…

But the word “native” refers to applications made using the native SDK, which in Apple’s case is Swift. I’d be extremely impressed if the devs re-wrote the entire app in new code. But that would be unnecessary.

You can have non-native apps on the app store. A lot of your apps probably aren’t native. SDKs like flutter, used by liftoff and thunder, make development much easier in exchange for the resulting application running a bit less efficiently. Flutter applications can also run on both Android and iOS, and even desktop, with little additional work.

Thunder has also been available for a while.

It is overall a bit behind in development compared to others, but IMO it’s the best looking. Next update is bringing another big set of improvements.

More likely that the autopilot kicks in, locks the doors, and drives into a lake.

I see you’re in the final stages of clamming up completely. This string of non-responses is an attempt at annoying me until I go away.

You’ve given up on trying to actually prove me wrong, because you can’t. Or at least don’t know how to properly try.

Please, figure it out. If not for me, then the next exchange you engage in.

What responsibilities? What part of what I’ve said tells you I’m avoiding them?

I want you to see the errors you’ve made in presenting your argument and dismantling mine. I point out third parties because I want to provoke YOU into taking an outside look at your own words.

Then we’ll be able to talk for real. Not this mudslinging that idiots do.

We are in an anonymous text thread. There is only talk here, the moment you began demanding a walk, that was just you sticking your fingers into your ears and going “laalaalaa”. I will not stop trying to pull them out.

And I’m not afraid of admitting I care. Maybe I can’t change your stance on this matter, but I want to at least make you think about how utterly idiotic your discussion methods are. How you’ve undermined your own position by sidestepping a real discussion, and hence leaving your actual points undefended. All you have left is to keep claiming you’re still on top, but with no language to actually show that is the case.

It was over the moment you didn’t read my comment, and responded with nonsense. Ever since, I’ve been trying to get you to admit that mistake, so we could have a real discussion.

By demanding action, you sidestep the actual exchange of ideas. Because online, here in a thread of mere text, ideas and the words that represent them, is all we have. By demanding action, you avoid having to defend your own views at all. You’ve made yourself look utterly devoid of reason to anyone capable of realising that. Which is everyone with their head on straight.

I’d need to be a mod to be a dictator, so I could ban you. Instead I’m right here on your level, trying to use words to explain why you’re wrong. I demand nothing from you, except the basic ability to fucking read. You’re the one demanding the literally impossible. That I bring grand actions as ideological proof, into a fucking anonymous text thread.

You just need to scroll the fuck up, and fucking read what I had to say. You’re still responding as if I think something I don’t. You’re afraid of understanding what I have to say, that you might agree with me if you did, so afraid that you wont take off your beer goggles and look at reality with clear eyes. You’d rather appear insane to anyone watching than risk reality proving you wrong.

I see you’re a broken record now, attempting yet another character assassination instead of dismantling my argument. Nothing of what I’ve said allows you to draw the conclusions about me that you are presenting. It’s disgraceful.

If anything, you’ve made it even more certain that anyone else coming across this exchange, won’t take your side. Good job.

You’re the one avoiding the real discussion.

I bet that even if I did provide the proof you are asking for, you’d find some way to invalidate it and require more. It’s a classic arguing tactic among the brainless. So many times I’ve backed myself up with salient points, including now, only for them to be utterly ignored.

Who cares if you’re wrong? If you keep claiming to be right, at least it feels like there’s still a chance that you are.

But there isn’t. You’re wrong.

That will be all.

The strength of my arguments don’t mean shit when the person I’m talking to is too narrow-minded to comprehend them.

Let alone read them.

Except what you’re asking me to prove I believe, isn’t actually what I believe, because you refuse to even think about what I am actually saying.

You’ve made assumptions, and because those assumptions are so heinously evil, you won’t even consider what I have to say.

Because you’re acting based on assumptions, you keep missing when trying to dismantle my argument, because its not my argument you’re attacking, but your imagined idea of what I’m saying.

So here we are, going in circles, me trying to get through to you, you accusing me of avoiding the point, because I keep trying to force you to see my actual point, instead of the imagined one that you’ve fixated on.

Oh, it’s one of my favorite tactics against people who won’t read past the first paragraph.

By splitting up my arguments into multiple smaller comments, I can circumvent the thick skulls of these people and force more of what I’m saying to get through.

There’s nothing emotional about it, though I did use that as an excuse to open up a second front. We can close it if you like.

Hey, you exploded first by spouting shit that made no sense if you had actually bothered reading what I had to say.

I’m just coming down to your level so we can continue to slug it out.

And what makes you so sure I’m not being the change I want to see? I already explained that if I were, admitting to it is not an option due to the stigma around the condition.

And the change you’re suggesting I need to engage in to prove myself, is fucking stupid. You’re attacking opinions I don’t even hold, it makes you look the fool.

I did read yours. What makes you think otherwise?

If someone who wants to kill, never does it, they shouldn’t be put in prison. They shouldn’t even be hated or feared.

Someone who gets away with it, should be in prison. Someone who did kill, should be hated and feared.

I will admit only one thing, that you refuse to understand what I’m actually trying to say.

I wouldn’t need to prove shit, if you had the capacity to think clearly enough to understand, or even fucking read.

Like seriously, what the fuck is wrong with you? You accuse me of not thinking through how these things should be handled, then you suggest… That.

What the fucking fuck. You’re the one not thinking this through. Clearly you’re not even reading my comments past the first sentence.

You didn’t read my comment. I want nothing to do with fucking criminals. Stop suggesting otherwise, you lunatic.

Stop trying to put words in my mouth. It’s not gonna work, especially if you won’t even read and understand what I am actually trying to say.

Responding like this, anyone who reads our exchange is gonna look at your responses, and determine you’re the crazy one, because what you are saying makes no fucking sense in response to me if you actually read and understand what I’m saying. Is that what you want?
