It should be illegal.

LLAP. Just a world war and 38 years to go.

That’s a bold statement from someone making money off a franchise that only lived because of fan creators. What’s next, saying women can’t make art?

Totally agree with you that everyone in the fediverse should be working together. Especially the amazing devs.

On Android, software can be made with free tools, released on Github/Gitlab/Forgejo/etc, and pushed into an F-Droid repo. Heck, you might not even need the F-Droid side, you can just throw an APK up at your free host of choice. Plus, I don’t think there’s a language restriction in terms of what can be compiled for Android (I’ll make my ignorance known here). Apple is not an open platform. One language is accepted, they have one way to develop software, one (overstuffed) place to download that software from. It is much more difficult to develop an app for iOS compared to Android. And if you try to monetize it, people will use a PWA.

To make it clear, this is not meant to be a debate on Apple. This is just my take on why free fediverse software is much more likely to show up on Android.

Evil Grain Ideographs?

I don’t really have a positive thing to say about people who want to stick to Apple as their primary device ecosystem.

It really is, from my limited use. I use the PWA on my (very old) phone and Firefox on desktop. But I like Interstellar.

Oh, I’m aware that both Lemmy and Mastodon have good apps. I’m just pointing out that if the ‘argument’ is that alternatives don’t have an app, MBin does have one.

Why aren’t we suggesting Mbin over Lemmy, actually? Because it seems like it has the same options. And Mbin even has an app (not just the PWA function)!

Quando Omni Flunkus Moritati.

Are you saying that all trans people watch Red Green?

Ah well. Keep your stick on the ice.

You also have to show up whenever the hell you feel like.

Proudfeet!

Nah, I just saw her and Jubilee and said. “Yes, that’s the kind of woman I want to marry”. This has led to multiple relationships with very fiery Southern women.

It’s not about “agency”, exactly. It’s the fact that once you offer labor for money, it’s only logical to offer labor in the way that brings in the most money. That allows bad actors to influence what labor is performed by way of payment. It could lead to dependence on those bad actors and projects getting torpedoed that could be beneficial to the masses.

Pannen, is that you? :-)

The moment that money can be used to cut the line, we’ll see the same effect as we do in every other part of society. Those with money to burn will spend and shape whatever projects interest them. Or, more importantly, startups with funding could use the bounty system to submit priority features and send competing open-source software down rabbit holes. It would be a very poor idea.

Boy got so wholesome he did a Mario 64 triple jump because of this girl. I wish them the best.

I so strongly prefer the mechanical keyboard and trackball to the built-in gear that if I’m doing any serious typing, a keyboard and mouse are always attached.
