As a long time Linux user, I was amazed when the entire tech industry “invented” package management a couple of decades after Linux. Did you know Apple invented the idea of being able to install an app and all its dependencies, signed by a central authority? So much easier than any other OS before it!
Lol I had to read all the way through your post to understand that the screenshot above was not a connection of names from Diablo IV formatted in a retro font for some reason.
It would be unnecessary if Lemmy’s web UI was actually reasonable. As it is, every single time I open the app, I have to log in again, then refresh the page to see anything at all. The news feed is paginated rather than endless scroll. When I press the back button on a comment thread, it takes me back to the page before the one I was looking at, so I lose my place. It’s borderline unusable.
So I guess I’ll give my ad eyeballs to the app that actually works.
Largely true but as a small aside, Google is still a company (within Alphabet). Alphabet is purely a corporate structure, and all branding still has Google on it. Whereas Facebook is now only a product, Meta is the company brand with its own logo and products named directly after it (like Meta Quest).
