Nothing revolutionary, but not a bad look
I know all phones basically look the same nowadays, but those pics really did remind me of this classic
I guess so. Every Lemmy app I’ve used also offers similar views.
You’re thinking like a designer for a slick, centralised, profit-and-growth-seeking company (no shade, I’m guessing that thinking literally makes you good at your job). The fediverse is entirely about choice; if different instances want to have a different default look and feel then that’s great and new users can pick one they like the look of, but insisting that everyone should have the one that you think is best isn’t a meaningful or helpful change.
It’s not like we haven’t seen other good drivers chewed up and spat out by the cut-throat red bull experience. Hopefully he can have an Albon-style recovery rather than fading away like Ricciardo.
How old are you, out of interest? Your posts in your similar thread about default viewing experience makes it seem like you want an Instagram-style image browser rather than the link aggregator which Reddit and Lemmy actually are.
Literally my first experience after installing dark reader is that it can’t darken its own add-on page! Seems to be good for other pages so I’ll give it a go for now.
I always found that to be quite hit and miss. Works for plenty but often gives a flash of white before it kicks in and makes enough pages unreadable that I’d rather not bother at all! I’ll give it another go and see if it’s improved though.
Why do we need to change what current users already like to attract some theoretical new user that might want a dumbed-down view? This is starting to sound like infinite-growth corpo speak!
I always use an app so I barely interact with the web ui
For me the ability to install whatever custom ROM and the knowledge that the phone will be secure for however many years is what makes the Pixel the better phone (also I’ve never paid full price for one!)
What makes you think it sucks? That’s just your opinion, do you mainly just look at image posts? Personally I prefer posts being collapsed by default so I can scroll through and find the interesting ones. Arbitrarily setting one thing as the default is just as bad as setting another.
We have a few different frontends available on feddit.uk, you can easily tell a new user that there are different ways of viewing the same content and to pick their favourite
But it’s all public, right? You can’t block people from seeing stuff you post publicly.
I guess it’s good that we’re being spoiled by long update promises now, my Pixel is the first phone I’ve ever had that even has a support window, previously it’s just been “one major update, within a year if you’re lucky, and what the fuck is a security patch?”
What do you mean pretty short, they provide it for as long as the manufacturer provides firmware updates and then seem to give extended support on top of that!
Absolutely agree. Sure, GrapheneOS is great for us keenos but if you’re using an old phone that hasn’t had a security update for 4 years then something “not bad” is a huge improvement!
What setup do you have that actually sets a dark background everywhere? In my experience there are always plenty of programs and web pages that stay white.
Well yeah, isn’t long term support and stability Debian’s whole thing?
