We had one of the magnet screen door dealios and it worked really well. Until the cat discovered he could just go out on the porch to try and escape.

Good bot

It would come with a removable hoodie, but the only other clothes you can buy are also hoodies

did you hear about the guy who stole a calendar? He got 12 months! Talk about a timely heist!

Worst pun I can do. That’ll be 200 schrute bucks.

Glad fizzbuzz doesn’t fit into the gibberish category

Boost hasn’t failed me yet, but aside from checking to see if it’s down, I’m being careful and popping away without browsing. I don’t want the dev to get slammed with more API fees because of me.

Yeah, at my company we switched to allow/block listed last year. Whitelisted and blacklisted are verboten

Always a good choice. Boost, once I paid to remove the ads, has been absolutely worth it to me though. Bought it twice so far since I started using it. Easily my favorite and every few months I’d go explore other options. I know people loooove Apollo on iOS, but I never could get used to it. Boost was my baby though. The dev was always really responsive as well, so he’s got my trust.

As another dev here, I have barely used a PC/laptop outside of work in years. I got a gaming PC like 2 years back and don’t use it much. But every time I get the hankering for some personal dev project and have to mess with the registry I cry inside. I really need to just ditch it for Linux entirely. I’m so much more comfortable on Linux. You might just convince me to bite the bullet and remove it entirely since 90% of my gaming is on steamdeck anyway.

It was! Posting this from my fold-4 as we speak. I’m loving the app so far. Great job on this!

DONE.

1000% agree. This is how it should be done. And not hidden away somewhere deep. There are legit reasons for in depth tracking, but when used for advertising or something other than improving the user’s experience, count me out.

Where do I join?

It’d be a “vulnerability” of anything public. There’s nothing stopping me from building a bot that pulls posts/threads from any instance and storing all the comments, their owners, the posts and their owners, yadda yadda.

I suspect the up/downvotes are “private” but on any instance, the owners will have access to that. I can’t imagine all the data is encrypted at rest by default. But, don’t take my word on that as I haven’t read any of the specs. But, I’m pretty sure we’re just looking at the protocol, not the implementation with regards to how a federated instance works.

So, same precautions as anywhere else really. Your data that’s public WILL be tracked by someone and Meta is a damn likely culprit who absolutely would do that. I’m a total privacy nerd myself, but you’d be amazed at the things I want to track at work related to what/how/why people use the tools I work on. Granted, it’s 100% exclusively used to improve user experience, weed out bugs, and see what is used most frequently to focus on that stuff. But if it can be tracked, somebody is tracking it.
