Clickbait titles suck

Aww thank you so much!!! <333

<3 wow it is a big coincidence! i wish your lemmy client app becomes very famous :D

Awww thanks!! <3

is it an ios app?

Yes, eventually. I’m developing in react native (one codebase, many platforms). I own an Android though, so all physical testing is on this phone. Therefore, all alphas and stuff like that are being built for Android for now. Unfortunately, building and testing for iOS is a massive pain in the ass. I think I would have to take the help of some iOS dev for this in the future/get an old iPhone or something.

do you want to share the link if it is available for everyone to download?

Aww thanks for the interest! It’s not ready enough imo to share it publicly for now. However, it’s getting there quickly! Can’t wait for the day I can share the repo link on the Lemmy app development communities!

collabora office; i will check this out as well! thanks! are they open source?

They’re the commercial wing of LibreOffice from what I know for enterprise.

thank you so much for the suggestions; do you know if there is a way to use Organic Maps on iphone?

No worries <3! Isn’t it on the App store? On looking it up, it shows that it’s available here. I don’t know though, as I don’t own any Apple devices.

I did use LibreOffice many years ago … i should give it a try once again.

Definitely! I’m a sucker for the native gtk apps. So I may be a little biased when I say this, but it’s WAY better than Microsoft office from a UI standpoint. All Microsoft products just feel cheap to me.

also, you have no idea how happy you made me by giving me my first comment on my first lemmy post!!

Awww I’m so glad haha. Guess what? I’m developing a Lemmy client app right now, and this is the first “real” comment I made which was outside the pure test oriented comments! Interesting firsts, eh?

Try using Organic Maps for OSM. Much more beautiful than osmAnd imo. As for office, try using LibreOffice. Very beautiful and smooth software!

Poor Elon simply gave his heart and love to the world by raising his right arm at a 45° angle after tapping his left boob. He did nazi anything wrong with that.

How’s this different from F-droid?

Clickbait-ey title

“This is the way”, is what members of a Mandalorian cult from Star Wars say to reaffirm their way of life. Star wars is owned by Disney.

The “this is the way” thing became popular as the cultists would generally say it after doing something cool.

Gotta give it to the courage of whichever employee is did this. What a chad

Nah good for you. Maybe it’s because of your geographical location/you just being lucky? I have experienced what the video above says quite a lot though.

I’m not American, so I didn’t exactly see a lot of Trump (although there was some amount of it). I largely saw a lot of Hindu nationalist content (cuz of my geographical location). The more I disliked the videos, the more they got recommended to me. It was absolutely pathetic.

Agreed 100%. Whenever I’m in India, I get Hindu nationalist content A LOT. I briefly attempted the dislike/don’t recommend thing, but nope! I was getting absolutely spammed with stuff like this regardless. I just disabled shorts after that.

Oh same! There’s also casual hate towards the queer community in really random videos.

Exactly, which is why they’re doing performative shit like this

Problem: Higher childhood depression rates linked to social media usage, social media caused disruption in education (like usage in schools), privacy violation of minors, etc.

An enforceable, common sense solution: Very strict privacy protection laws, that would end up protecting everybody, including minors. Better, kid friendly urban infrastructure like dedicated bike paths protected from car traffic, better pedestrian areas, parks and so on. Kids will get outside their house if there is a kid friendly outside. A greener, more human friendly outside where you can socialize with other humans would always be preferred over doom scrolling online. For the disruption in education issue, it is very education system dependent.

What solution these people came up with: Make it illegal for individuals under the age of 16 to create social media accounts. How do they enforce this? No idea. Does this solve any of the above problems? No. Is this performative? Yes.

Speaking from personal experience, social media was one of the most liberating tools for me as a kid. I lived in a shitty, conservative country and was gay. Social media told me that I wasn’t disgusting. I was always more of a lurker than a poster, so I thankfully didn’t really experience being contacted by groomers and so on. However, many of my friends who posted their images and stuff almost always got pedos in their DMs, so that’s a very real issue.

I could ask my silly little questions related to astrophysics on Reddit and get really good answers. Noone around me irl was ever interested/able to talk about stuff like this. I could explore different political ideologies, get into related servers on Discord and learn more about this. None of this was possible without social media.

Banning social media outright is such a boomer move lol. Doing so isn’t going to solve any real problems associated with childhood social media usage. It’s just going to give the jackass parents complaining about this a false sense of security, when the kids still end up suffering.

Haha I don’t think I would need to do that just yet. But now that you said it, perhaps a sexbot might have very interesting use cases for threesomes, eh?

1. You are assuming that the current medical scene won’t improve. It is very likely that we’ll eliminate the “old person lying in bed, dying” visual altogether due advancements in the medical field (especially accelerated further by development in AI)
2. The “human touch” is not impossible to replicate for machines. You aren’t seeing machines capable of that right now, because the field of personal care robots are in their absolute infancy. “The human touch” at the end of the day, is just warm, soft skin paired with a caring voice. We have already replicated the caring voice.
3. Elder care robots won’t be cold, metal bodies going “Boop boop, shit in bed defected, Boop boop engaging cleanup procedure…”. They would be really kind voices, soft hands with an experience of more than a thousand years of handling thousands of patients. They would never become impatient, they would never feel bad or disgusted.

Of course, advancements in this tech won’t stop humans from caring for the elderly. You can still care for ur grandpa. However, ur grandpa won’t die if u don’t.

Here’s the best case scenario - you can be with ur grandpa, chat, play video games, do fun stuff. When it’s time to change the diaper, a professional robot trained for this very purpose does the job.

Why’s that dark? It’s a free future. The young don’t have to clean up after their elders anymore.
