I waddled onto the beach and stole found a computer to use.

The autofill popup has always been unreliable for me on Android (with Bitwarden)
I use the quick settings tile most of the time instead
I think it’s a mix of the two. There are legitimate reasons, and commercial reasons
Synology does not manufacture its own hard drives but instead certifies and rebrands drives from Toshiba and Seagate, leaving out only Western Digital among the world’s largest manufacturers.
They’re disabling features
Synology, maker of network-attached storage (NAS) devices, will seemingly remove advanced features from its Plus devices that are not using hard drives provided by, or certified by, Synology itself, starting with its 2025 lineup.
What you might lose from using non-Synology-approved hard drives could include pool creation and support for any issues. De-duplication, lifespan analysis, and automatic HDD firmware updates could also disappear on non-approved drives, Synology’s press release suggests.
I think it could work great on a dating profile. It’s unique, memorable, and a conversation starter for the apps that require comments when liking
Maybe not as the first image, but anywhere else. Pair it with a witty caption
Yes it’s hard to tell what they’re looking at, but I imagine the less info they can collect from your device the better?
I usually lookup ‘alternative frontends’ and then find a list like this on github type sites. They go out of date often
https://github.com/mendel5/alternative-front-ends?tab=readme-ov-file#facebook
With the proxy websites, it’s more of an alternative frontend where you still need an account on the platform.
What might be happening is
So if you really need to use it and there’s no alternative, you could do one of
make the real account, ideally from a privacy friendly browser, and give the absolute minimum info you can. Name and email, no profile image, privacy settings to max
make an account on a new device / wifi network, and have it be believable for the kind of person joining Facebook for the first time. I haven’t tried this myself but I’ve heard it mentioned before
Whether you made an account or not, you can keep an eye out for alternatives. Over here there are a few alternatives, and one of them (Karrot) has been growing in popularity
It might enshitify at some point, but it’s been nice so far
It looks like there are a number of reports on this post. If you could edit a tag into the title, such as [
, that would probably make everyone happy ]
This is something that’s hard to describe with words
This video has someone going that speed, they also talk through some of the considerations on how to do that safely
4K HDR POV: How to drive 300+ kmh on German Autobahn in a McLaren
There’s also this video with a motorcycle doing something similar
Nice, I like it :)
You could add a word or phrase to remind people that it’s being given away for free to anyone that wants to run it. That might get people to think about any benefit they are getting out of it, and how much they want to donate in response.
I’m not sure what is the best wording for that, but just be careful in case someone misunderstands and thinks it might become paid someday. I’ve seen that complaint in the past
For example, this could be misinterpreted:
and if you want to keep using it for free
You can also add a note about the frequency of the messages. Saying that you will only remind people once a year is nice to hear, and that way people won’t dismiss it thinking they will do it when they are reminded the next time
So while this isn’t the cause in your case, it is possible to sticky things to the main feed. It’s done by admins, and for example lemmy.ca has a welcome post stickied right now:
I think it’s a federation bug. That post is on https://community.nodebb.org/, which isn’t a Lemmy instance but actually a different software.
Which in itself is cool! There are a few projects being worked on right now to make traditional forums compatible with activity pub. The idea being that someday you’ll be able to follow and post in official support forums for things right from your Lemmy account.
But right now, it might be causing some weird federation bug. Maybe the date of the post shows up to Lemmy as sometime in the future and so it’s always the “newest” post (or something similar)?
Some brainstorming from me:
Alternatively, what would a recycling/conversion program look like?
Ok yep, I have the display issue as well. Interestingly, it only affects some of the equations. I’ll take a better look this evening
Can you link the article so that others can take a look?
I should have specified, people we’re downvoting you
But looks like the score is positive again 🙂
I’ve heard Kobo is better than the other big players when it comes to interoperability with open formats / self hosted setups.
As for the servers

Also (to everyone else reading your comment) let’s not downvote good faith comments, especially when they’re phrased as a question and wanting to learn more
With that in mind, I LOVE how lean and fast some FOSS apps/projects are. One of my motivations to go searching for FOSS alternatives is when something seems slow for no reason.
It’s not always the case, but it’s often the case
Briar comes to mind, although not directly related to self hosting or Linux
