Electrical and Electronics engineer, programming, blogging, music. From the UK 🇬🇧
Same, i used to sub with Spotify, in the last 2 years i’ve been on Apple music, they even have better collection and playlists of non-english music. Spotify is full of rap music and so hard to discover anything else unless you know what you are searching for.
RIP kevin
in the uk it used to be £18 now £20 … that’s about €23 or $25
there are many fediverse alternatives, but honestly they’re deserted.
Most of them are either FB or IG users anyway, so their data are already being taken.
They want to keep the top content creators from considering threads. Threads is a real threat to twitter specially with all the issues around twitter atm.
the problem if people start sharing links to download. are we gonna allow this? it will be a headache to mod.
yeah seems so. and i’m not sure if software companies really wants that.
this is interesting, specially that we as engineers, programmers and developers all we think about is learning new things all the time, we leave so little to enjoy and improve our personal life.
during the lockdown i tried to connect my WP personal blog to a tumblr account i had from years ago, the tech community their almost don’t exist, specially if compared to other social media platforms. Not sure about them now tho.
Who still uses tumblr 😄
As of today it wouldn’t be that hard, alternatives are available and some of them are as good but don’t have the same market share.
People are moving away from twitter because it’s full of spam, nudity and bullying. That doesn’t makes twitter any unique and/or worthy, that makes it toxic place to be in.
Freedom of speech and (nudity, bullying) are not the same thing.
if you don’t mind pay a bit more, then i highly recommend name.com they have been in the business since ages.
if facebook and ig are allowed then threads will get the approval anytime soon anyway.
Done, thanks.
I see your point, but the problem with Lemmy you don’t have much control over the feed, say you want to focus on posts related only to Arduino inside a community that also include Rpi and others, currently there’s no way to do that.
If Lemmy would implement a tag/topic feature, so you can tag the post from a preset list of tags set by the mods which works as a topic separator/distinguisher within a single community, then using a general and much broader communities would work.
Plus there are an RSS feed per-community, the previous point also applies to the RSS feed.
Relax my friend, would you like some Mojito? You see that doesn’t take rust out of the equation here (read again the op body text).
youll have to pay with a cc based in, say the UK, so they’ll automatically change your location back to the UK. doesn’t work anymore.
