  • This is where I feel piefed is better for onboarding new threadiverse users, from reddit or elsewhere.

    On sign up, they ask you for some topics you’d like to see, ask about how you want to see US politics being in your feed, and lastly they have set topics feed already that you can choose to view.

    Personally I think piefed is the next good iteration of the threadiverse. It’s an in between of having to curate your feeds on your own (Lemmy and mbin) and algorithmic feed (reddit and other thread based social media).

    Desktop use is already good, although personally I’d like Tesseract front end support. Mobile still needs to be picked up by more apps personally. Interstellar is good, but I like the “read on scroll” and “hide read posts” from Thunder. Despite that though, it’s also good already on mobile browsers

    Yeah that’s the thing isn’t it. To try if multi monitor works for you or not for PC / laptops is cheap. Just get any cheap monitor and you’re golden.

    Not so with phones.

    Although in a sense for mobile I did have a go with multiple screens with my LG Wing. And even then it’s still such a nice experience just having a small squarish screen to offload anything and have the main screen open whatever I have to focus on

    Got it on deep discount after LG exited the mobile space. Got a Korean version and they did good updating it to Android 13 like they promised.






  • Frankly, for me, it’s like going multi-monitor for the first time. I can’t go back.

    Interesting. Definitely makes me continue to be interested in them. First time I went multi monitors it’s quite freeing. Then when the lockdowns hit I made sure to get a second monitor for work (and play lol).

    Only thing ia that the price of foldables is still too expensive for me. And idk if I want to buy used from tech junkies’ not-shiny-anymore when the next shiny comes out.

    I’ve seen the earlier iterations have problem, but also seen the newer ones are a lot better. Of course being newer means they still have their mettle to be tested in the real world.

    I also have a friend who gave his wife and children the Galaxy flip phones. Don’t know which one. But from what I could see, they’re holding up fine. I’d have to ask him about them next time I meet.

    And don’t talk to me about giving expensive phones to children. They’re teenaged enough by my reckon, and it’s his responsibility.
