Unfortunately, this will also make aviation safety analysis more difficult for us.

I've tried Connect, Liftoff, Thunder, Voyager, and Infinity. It's just bugs galore. The back button will take you to the wrong activity, comments won't post (due to the app not the instance), some instances or accounts won't load, and a laundry list of UI or functionality bugs. Liftoff gave me the fewest issues of all of them, apart from using Lemmy in the browser.

But Sync really is polished, and the experience is night and day. I'm a big FOSS proponent, but I don't think it's wrong for a developer to want to make money when their income source suddenly disappears and they need to pay bills (and region-specific pricing is coming soon). The level of customizability, spit and polish in the other apps doesn't even come close. I'm sure they'll get there eventually, but I think it's a mistake to drive away passionate developers who want to help Lemmy succeed.

I've given pretty much every app or browser front-end a fair shake at this point, and I'm gladly choosing Sync for now.

I work in AI, and I think AI is overrated.

My favorite is Dracula, in part because they support so many applications.

Since your pen is not a demonstrator and does not have an ink window, you'll know it's ink is low when it stops writing.

I am faster, more comfortable, and more productive in Vim. I use the same keybindings in all my editors and IDEs. It's okay for people to have different preferences.

Same. I've written a fish plugin, but other than that I just fish pretty much stock. It works and just gets out of my way.

I use this on my Galaxy Tab and S23U all the time. It's really handy to be able to draw a diagram or take down a quick name or number.

I recommend installing Obtainium. In Obtainium, click Add App and then paste the Codeberg URL for Infinity for Lemmy: https://codeberg.org/...

Obtainium will take care of installing and updating from various code repositories whether they're hosted on GitHub or Codeberg or some other place.

I agree. The System UI has been crashing hard on my S23 Ultra recently due to the One UI 6.0 Beta, which means I can't open any app or even shutdown—nothing happens. Thankfully, you can force a shutdown by holding Volume Down and Power for 15 seconds.

There should always be a hardware force shutdown option.

I'm interested in the earbuds. I typically play with earbuds or headphones, so it might be nice to have a dedicated gaming pair.

It happens for me too, even though I haven't purchased it yet. I think not rendering the post in the list is a bug.

Both worked for me on Sync. 🤔

I agree. Also, there is a ton of really great programming and AI/ML content on Twitter. I hope much of it migrates to Mastodon and Lemmy, and I'm starting to see some of it appear on Threads as well. Instead of knee-jerk reactions to defederate from Threads to avoid the the embrace-extend-extinguish that happened to XMPP, we should build technical safeguards to keep things open.

Although Meta's social media and privacy woes are well-known, Meta is one of the largest contributors to open-source and AI/ML. We should be encouraging companies to federate and building safeguards into ActivityPub to discourage "embrace-extend-extinguish". We're already seeing fracturing in the Fedverse between Pleroma and Akkoma, Beehaw defederating from lemmy.world and sh.itjust.works, and most Lemmy mobile clients not supporting Kbin. I want the fediverse to succeed, but this is driving users away—what's the point if this ends as a ghost town? Do we want to go the way of Identi.ca and previous attempts

Can you explain these a little more? I don't understand what that breaks. Also, shouldn't the second one be correct if you use a raw string?

For what it's worth I find the text prediction is really accurate for me (and it capitalizes I without issues).

It's not even enabled for Google Workspace accounts, but it's still forced upon you even though you can't use it.
