The biggest problem is that federation splits the communities between instances. So a single interest may have 5-10 different communities, all with fewer users than on an equivalent subreddit.
I’ve been saying this since the beginning, Lemmy needs a way to follow topics that allow you to subscribe to all related communities at once. And posting to a topic on one community allows it to show up across different communities of the same topic.
I see that rogue Google Play Music icon there. Makes me sad they killed it.

Android@lemdro.id•kamila 🌸🏳️⚧️: It seems like Google's renaming Nearby Share to... Quick Share, which is also the name for the Samsung's file sharing solution? uhhhhhEnglish
6·2 years agoWas called Bump. And then Apple introduces it this year as if it’s some new thing.
I have no idea why sharing files between devices has to be so complicated. Bring the devices close together, get NFC connected, use P2P wifi to send the files. This is not that difficult.
How has that not been a feature from the beginning?
Google is so big that the right hand doesn’t know what the left is doing and they can’t even have a cohesive platform of features.

Linux@lemmy.ml•How safe are my data if my hard drive isn't encrypted?
3·2 years agoOh that’s a really good point. Don’t trust the cops, keep everything encrypted.
Way safer in those situations.

5·2 years agoIs this for your home? If it is, you don’t really have to worry about someone stealing your desktop. If someone breaks into your home, they’re looking for quick cash and jewelry and TVs. They’re not going to bother stealing your server to dig through files for something usable.

111·2 years agoIt’s a podcast. Most people listen to it while doing other things and don’t watch it in a single sitting.
If you don’t want to watch it, then don’t, but it really is a great podcast.

Android@lemdro.id•Android Central: We didn't really want satellite phones after all, did we?English
31·2 years agoI don’t know, if you’re getting yourself in that kind of situation, you should know you’re going to be beforehand, so just get a satphone.
But I guess it’s better to have it and not need it.

Technology@beehaw.org•Warning: New Outlook sends passwords, mails and other data to Microsoft | mailbox.org
1·2 years agoWhy is someone using Outlook to sync a different email address?
Why not keep the apps separate? Or use the Mail app built into Windows?
Seriously, someone explain the use case here because I don’t understand. If you’re using an outlook account, MS already has all that stuff. And if you don’t have an Outlook account, why are you using Outlook?

Technology@lemmy.ml•YouTube's ‘War’ on Adblockers Shows How Google Controls the Internet
2·2 years agoI pay for YouTube and I think people need to stop complaining so much about ads if they’re not willing to support the infrastructure or the creators they likely watch hours and hours of content from.
I also think Google is charging too much and should decouple music from videos, but that’s another subject.


As I’ve heard it, it’s much less of a problem when you’re looking at it straight on and out of bright sunlight. I think it was Honor that released a foldable last year that nearly eliminated it. So they’re close to minimizing it as much as they can
