The Fold 7 looks really nice, but the price tag is painful. Excited about how this tech is turning out!

Seems like a great idea! I wonder how it compares to Briar which also sends messages over Bluetooth.

might be a Wayland thing, where you have to enable a certain flag to get Vivaldi to use Wayland instead of defaulting to X11. sounds similar to a problem I had

Alright, my experiment with the Bluesky web app is ending because this app is too addicting and I can't put my mobile browser behind a focus mode lol

Yeeouch

This post was so good that I saw it in a quote post and went out of my way to like yours specifically. You are so right.

When I first heard the name of this messenger, I thought it was a joke and not a real thing.

Bazzite ftw

Pinned. Thank you!

The Linux feed got way more positive about Linux since I last check. That's great!

Once I put in the work to mute words then I may feel more comfortable with Discover. Generally I think it does a good job, it's just the political content that I get blasted with that just doesn't help me mentally lol. But it's great to catch what I miss in the chronological feed.

My top desired bsky feature is still auto-deleting posts

A nice thing about the feeds is that there are many that don't require you to follow people either. It's a really nice onboarding feature.

What feeds do you recommend for a good bsky experience? I want to kick the Discover feed to the curb, but I'm trying to think of what value I get from it so I can replace it with other feeds. First on the list are the top posts from follows and mutuals feed.

Yes! I'm not crazy! This is one of the reasons I still use Mastodon - I have way more control over what content gets to me than I do on bsky.

I've wanted to run Bluesky as a web app on my phone for a while, but that issue kicked me back to the app. Now I can run the web app on mobile in Brave and get a bit more privacy while still using it. It really is super close to the native experience.

When I paste links to post, it will give me the preview. Before I only saw that in the app. It's nice because it lets me share a link but not lose all of those characters.

That is the biggest one. There are still some areas that are not as smooth, but it's things I expect from a web app.

The Bluesky web app feels more polished now.

It's funny how often I think about making a purchase and then think about the food I would rather buy for that amount of money.

Do I want to be a $20 houseplant, or would I rather spend that money on Taco Bell?

Google’s Advanced Protection Arrives on Android: Should You Use It? With this week’s release of Android 16, Google added a new security feature to Android, called Advanced Protection. At-risk people—like journalists, activists, or politicians—should consider turning i...

Google’s Advanced Protection for Android is out for select devices now. It’s designed to better protect at-risk users. Here’s what it does, and how to turn it on.

That speaks to my troubleshooting skills. I know how to install Linux, and that's about it lol

I feel extremely sorry for you and have no idea how you could fix except to reinstall. That's my only troubleshooting trick is to reinstall Linux lol

@theotherfrost.bsky.social my favorite take away from all your videos:

"That's not my problem."

Feels so good

Stop KOSA KOSA is a censorship bill that won’t make kids safe. Instead, it'll put all internet users at risk, especially youth. If you believe in a free and open internet, tell your lawmakers to reject #KOSA!

KOSA is being reintroduced today.

It's always been a dangerous censorship bill.

But in this environment, with Trump weaponizing every aspect of the Federal government to suppress speech he doesn't like, KOSA is a catastrophic attack on human rights.

We have to stop it.

No Postal Service Data Sharing to Deport Immigrants The law enforcement arm of the U.S. Postal Service (USPS) recently joined a U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) task force geared towards finding and deporting immigrants, according to a report...

The U.S. mail is a vital system of communication and commerce that should not be distorted into infrastructure for dragnet surveillance.

They let me organize the slack, which means they empowered me to choose the naming convention, which means they submitted to my terrible iron rule of channel prefixes. You wanted to create a "law" channel? I am the "law" channel. And it should have a chat- prefix.

Waiting for the folks who were laid off of @polygon.com to pull a @gameinformer.com or @aftermath.site. And just as I was starting to read it more as well.
