Could be, or the meme was started and was boosted because of what you said above.

Fr, do people get their Reddit shit posting monetized?

Oh, yeah, that stuff makes me mad dizzy.

I’m a developer as well, but I think we’re comparing professional literacy to general user literacy. I think we should be fine save some new form factor (idk, fucking AR, I guess?) or paradigm that upends UI design in our 60s

Strange. I haven’t had issues with NewPipe

Right?

I just fly Delta cause parents can’t afford it 🤷 Problem solved.

If you own a Pixel you could always use GrapheneOS! It’s been wonderful on mine!

You know. I prefer FOSS stuff when I can, but I’d drop it all if Apollo came out tomorrow.

Voyager has been good. Not perfect, bit good.

Not a problem. Also FOSS orgs pay their devs as well. Off the top of my head OS developers with a large userbase often pay their devs through donations to foundations that fund the project. Often donors are companies as well, but it gives a developer the option to get paid without working for a massive company.

(I suppose indirectly they do, but that’s a whole different ball of wax)

I don’t understand. I reread back to the top comment and went down the chain. They made a rhetorical question about how devs of software being paid. Someone clarified the definition of Foss. Then there was a an inquiry about how someone could make a living with FOSS software and another commenter claiming millions do it (which a majority are these exact devs I pointed out).

I simply gave the list, that’s all.

It’s like having Apollo for Android!! It’s so weird to have the experience on my Pixel.

See: RedHat devs and all the FOSS orgs that actually pay devs to work on their shit.

Google, Meta, and AMD have people on their to team they pay for development on FOSS projects because their operations rely upon them, so they have a vested interest in maintaining them.

I’m inclined to agree with you, but at the same time we know it must happen eventually.

At this point I imagine Nintendo is feeling pressure to make their next console as they’ve had to contend with Android projects spinning up to emulate the console’s already weak hardware. Why own a switch when you can take a phone, slap on a pair of controllers and call it day?

He was forced* to buy a company, and is now during the lawyer that compelled him to do so.

Heck, I’m even using Voyager on my “desktop setup” iPad!

I not proud my internal dialog went exactly like that.

Things like comment and vote history being public is just a part of the design of the forum,

Or, to check my understanding, make the structure of the Frediverse actually work, right?

I can agree with this. Landed my first dev job after working as a tradesman for a decade, but I liked computers enough to learn on my own. My ‘trade’ offered a ‘unique persepective,’ I guess.

Yeah, I kinda agree. I like the niche, albiet small, community these decentralized platforms offer. TBH, I love the trade of brands not pointing their content firehoses in our direction. While I love the idea of more people using lemmy, for example, I worry about the inflection pointe where that changes and this place gets ruined.
