I'm A Different Bird

I wouldn’t call this a “smart workaround”. I mean, I can hardly blame the opportunistic fucks for doing it this way, and certainly the original sin in Apple’s licensing/certification bullshit, but it’s just an amazingly stupid way of doing this all around, brought about by both Apple’s and the earbud manufacturers’ greed.

Must be doing something right.

I share a name with someone who is obscure enough to not come up in many conversations, but famous enough that he monopolizes the Google results for my name.

I quite enjoy the relative anonymity.

I’m increasingly glad I got the fuck out of there.

For Lemmy on Android, I’m using Eternity, which is a fork of the Reddit client Infinity.

5 years of OS updates is more than you get from any other Android manufacturer. For everyone else in the space, you are lucky to get 3.

Honestly, just pick up any USB barcode scanner, open a spreadsheet up in Excel or Google Sheets, and go to town. It will go pretty quickly.

Did you skip over Code of Honor? Wouldn’t blame you if you did, of course.

Bookshop.org is an attempt to provide an alternative to Amazon as a bookseller by using a network of independent book stores. It’s not decentralized technologically or anything like that; it’s just a website that bookshops can affiliate with. But it does represent a model to build an alternative that other industries can learn from.

I mean, that’s a fine destination anyway, given that it’s the home of the Xavier School for the Gifted.

I was an Infinity user on Reddit before the APIcalypse. Trying this out now, and it looks great. Thanks!

One thing I’ve noticed is that it throws an error when trying to load the sidebar for a Kbin magazine. I’m not sure if you have full Kbin support on your road map, but that particular issue might be worth looking at for inter-operability’s sake even before implementing Kbin completely.
