  • This is it. Imagine you setup your RSS reader to fetch your tech news from multiple sites. You can get from LTT Forums, Ars Technica, Kit Guru, The Verge, and so on… You will start seeing news from multiple “servers” in your reader, and that’s pretty similar to what you’re getting here on Lemmy too. If you want to think in Reddit terms, you are just cutting the middle man (Reddit in that case). I know the analogy doesn’t fully translate, but honestly if you think about it, having everything from one single source is the weird case.

    right but that’s not the kind of constructive answer we want to be replying to people now is it? Lemmy is still growing and the inflow of users, whether from Reddit or not, is a great opportunity to get free feedback and try to do something about it. Maybe there’s UI improvements that could be used to make it feel less confusing or something.

    I take this kind of comment as legit feedback from a user that is struggling with a base concept of the “product”, we could engage with them and see where the root cause is.

    It depends. I lived in Florianópolis, Brazil for most of my life and I don’t think I would drink from the tap there. Not that the water was dirty, but it was just not recommended. We always had a filter that would clean the tap water.

    Then I moved to Poznan, Poland, and it really depends. In theory the tap water is safe to drink, but not necessarily the pipes of most old buildings. In that case we also have a filter that cleans the tap water.

    We’ve recently moved a little away from the city in a place built recently with new pipes. We still use the same water filter as before, but I can drink from the tap and I do it often especially at night when I just take water from the bathroom tap :p




  • After many years of using custom stock ROMs on my phone’s, that were always better and more up to date than the branded android ROM the phone came with, I’ve decided a few months ago to finally get a Google Pixel 6.

    It’s a great experience, basically feels like all the custom ROMs I’ve been using all these years but the camera is great and Google Wallet works, also some pixel exclusive niceties like the PO Pixel app from teenage engineering, etc, and as always the most up to date Android version available.
