Americans work more,
take less vacation,
work longer days,
and retire later-
-but at least we're not stuck w/socialized health care,
like our happier and more well-off capitalist allies.

@asahi95 Btw, if you are going to use OpenCamera, go to the config and change Camera API to Camera2 for better image quality

@asahi95
I use OpenCamera, it has a lot of features!

Zelda and the cel-shaded twink

art style >>> graphical realism
No one remembers Crysis except that it was computationally expensive, but we all see cel shading and we're like "oh that's just like Borderlands"

@asahi95 How do I follow you from my akkoma account?

all boys who use thunderbird are gay. what do you need thunderbird for, huh? to see e-males??

@nyaa
I installed Vivaldi precisely because I thought it'd have notifications but alas, it didn't

@asahi95
@nyaa
The problem with Mull is, since it doesn't come with google apis, offline notifications don't work

@asahi95
and NewPipe!

In my experience PWAs perform better on Chromium-based browsers (Firefox for android and forks are the only (!) mobile browsers to not use Blink*)

*iOS uses it's own technology, but it's a fork of KHTML, the same as Blink

@asahi95
And they are right, the community is taking it in thw wrong way, but I guess they are being cautious given what has happened to other platforms in the previous years

@asahi95
???

They confirmed what we suspected, that they are just offering the service so police can use secure communications.

They explicitely said "We have no backdoors"

Having to repeatedly mute folx going on about "how great BlueSky is for marginalised group X!!" when it's clear they have zero respect for that marginalised group nor community safety in general — yikes.

Fucking Christ the @protocol is the most obtuse crock of shit I've ever looked at. It is complex solely for the sake of being complex and still suffers from *all* of the same problems as Mastodon.

Your server goes down? Sorry, all of your followers are lost. Account portability is no better than Mastodon. 'DIDs' serve literally no purpose. And none of the API code that Bluesky uses in their own app validates ANY of the crypto they're doing on the server. NONE OF IT.

@asahi95
Negative!?
