@fne8w2ah. When I was a kid, toys, whatnots, etc could be taken by the teacher to be returned when they saw fit or off to the office and whenever the principal decided. I’d assume the same rules would apply to a smartphone.
@Kovu. Your average person will go oooh Instagram, I know them. Sign me up for the new app! Privacy, security, etc never even were involved. Of course that also assumes Meta didn’t just “create” one for each IG user (no clue what the usercount is).
@Arotrios Why would I want an inferior version of mastadon? But seriously I will likely only end up with one if they auto generate it. (a few family use ig and fb as their only communication so it’s checked occasionally via web with adblockers etc…ugh).
@Johnpwrinkle Well worth it. It can handle quite a bit locally, and can stream from steam on your main pc (or be set up to several cloud services).
@LollerCorleone will do thanks! Updated them in my browsers. Will let you know.
@LollerCorleone I hope so too. I don’t wanna lose the wealth of knowledge and tips but I also don’t want to give Reddit themselves the time of day.
Side note: I added UserScipt extension on Safari on my Mac and IOS and copied the script in on it’s editer and it works there too. iOS does have a slight delay at the moment before it goes landing on what looks like a Reddit error page. I’m thinking it’s where it is attempting to hit the script as it first loads to promote their app. Still works so woot!
@LemmyStartNow I loaded violentmonkey edge addon and copy pasted the script in the add (teddit version) and it works. There is a bit a delay as it redirects. But I’ll take the delay over using "dead"it. now just to figure how to automate it from ios safari…
@Greenpepper. This is what happens when you cut most of the supporting work force, scrap a chunk of infrastructure, tend to not pay bills, and just toss crap at the wall to see what sticks and hopefully doesn’t break things.
@floofloof. That’s a hard no. I mean if work wants to do it…ok? But on my own machines…Linux or Mac. I can just picture some jerk DDOSing it.
I have zero interest in going back beyond possible a big meeting type thing or something. Open office plans are one of my personal hellscapes. I can’t hardly focus on what I’m doing for all the movement and noise. I do get it for certain types of jobs but I’m a dev and can collab online with less distractions and get my stuff done. My stress level is less and my boss is still happy.
