  • It’s expensive (and too expensive for me), but if you put it next to a MacBook Pro with a few upgrades it’s the same price and those get bought without thinking about it.

    To become more mainstream it definitely has to be cheaper, but there’s something bothering me about how all the other prices are acceptable.

    MacBooks are more of a working device and the upgrades are optional, the starting price is cheaper, I know. Still, these price points aren’t unheard of for Apple.
















  • Of course cooperate social media isn’t the only harmful social media, if anything it might be the most civil one for its scale, simply because they’re trying to sell ads next to the content so the content can’t be complete garbage. They also have a bunch of other incentives that ultimately make it a shit experience for everyone, but there is an incentive to moderate.

    Something to remember is that it isn’t the company producing the harmful content. It’s people.














  • Yeah that’s the problem with apples apps, they get one release and then varying degrees of updates once a year. But most of them keep getting better and if they work for you they’re a great option. I went back to Notes, reminders and keychain and I’m quite happy, but not entirely happy ^^

    I guess we can hope for an update in a year and if we‘re lucky it gets what we’d like to have.




  • It sounds like Henriette couldn’t keep up due to health issues and I hope she’s doing okay under the circumstances.

    It feels like there is one app per user and since Lemmy hasn’t been growing much (looks like it’s been shrinking lately) it’s probably unavoidable for this to happen. I’d love to see everything grow, but that’s just the hype cycle I guess. I’m pretty sure this sadly won’t be the last project to slowly fade out of existence.

    Sorry to be such a downer ^^
