It was also much smoother
now that’s just rose-tinted glasses speaking. I remember how absolutely abysmal old Firefox’ scrolling was, and how they’ve claimed multiple times that they’ve improved it but it was still horribly sluggish compared to Chromium browsers. I’ve been using Firefox Preview (and then Nightly after enough performance improvements have landed on it) for about a year just to have acceptable experience on mobile.
“Windows bad pls upvote”
one of the mentions that you added to your post (along with thelinuxEXP for some reason) makes it appear in a Lemmy community that’s focused on Linux news, not screenshots.
“guys look here’s an ASCII logo of the distro I use”
okay… and?
…so?
someone should create [email protected] so that such content doesn’t get accidentally posted in a Linux community.
have you read through the comments?
you can fire up a fresh copy of element and connect it if you want
you kind of omitted the part where you have to host your own Matrix server in order to benefit from the bridges.
It’s also e2e encrypted
well, in Beeper’s case one of the ends is their server. your message gets encrypted when you send it, decrypted on Beeper’s server, and then forwarded to the service you’re bridging with.
While FeedMe isn’t on Fdroid
because it’s closed source. just a heads-up for anyone who sees it as a deal breaker.

looks good to me, with the first result being from StackOverflow.
it’s a selling point because it’s aimed at developing countries with limited internet access. it comes bundled with lots of programs and some games, educational videos, and 50,000 Wikipedia articles.
That means Apple, Signal, WhatsApp, and a whole bunch of other services will have to interoperate by law
I don’t think Signal is big enough to be included in the requirement. and in addition to that, while the premise is pretty great I’m not that enthusiastic about Whatsapp being able to mine metadata from my conversations as a Signal user :/
Choosing a server to join seems unnecessarily difficult. At the top of the list is firefish.social marked as verified but when you click or tap to find out more you are presented with a coming soon page (not seen one of those since the 90s when everything was Under Construction).
they’re probably working on moving calckey.social server to the new domain, along with its users.
The choice of servers seems limited with a need for more general servers.
so… you’ve got 22 other servers categorized as “general” to choose from, and you want more of them, but at the same time you find choosing a server to be “unnecessarily difficult”?
a Mi Band storing everything offline with Gadgetbridge, because I don’t need Xiaomi to know how many steps I’ve made and what’s my heartbeat at a given moment.
because they have no other option.
I dunno, Piped has been a very good other option for me.
You can set up an account on TILVIDs and even follow folks on other instances.
you can follow them with your Mastodon account, as well. and even with your Lemmy account, as far as I can tell.
I do miss the tab bar, it would be great to have it on the tablet. I can’t comment on how differently the browser behaves now regarding storing loaded pages in memory though, because most of the time I’d have an underpowered phone that would kick out everything out of memory when switching apps anyway.
