  • Twitter is dead. Long live BlueSky.

    Jump

  • Also no quote tweets. And many people are used to algorithms now. I love Mastodon but I have to say Bluesky is more polished. Mastodon can be weird about threads and replies to posts. Sometimes I see a reply before I see the post, especially in the "lists" view. Chronological timeline is great but it has its own issues too. For example people living in different time zones will have their posts buried when everyone is asleep. The algorithm, for better or worse, shuffles things around which can work for you or against you. If you browse for 5 mins here and there, algorithm helps you see the most relevant posts in that widow. Having both chronological and algorthimic feeds would be so helpful to me in Mastodon. I know there a front end that does a "catch up" feature, but it's a bit hacky

  • Is there any closed source android app that you wish had a good open source alternative?

  • Yea I know about it but you can't make any of the modern memes with it. It only supports top and bottom text memes, which have been outdated for a couple of years now.

  • Why is Facebook still so insanely popular?

    Jump

  • I live in Morocco. I keep leaving Facebook for months but I end up going back there even though I don't like it at all. The reason is that all the people I know and all local content is available only through Facebook. There are hardly any Moroccans on the Fediverse, I've only seen like one other person in all my years of using Mastodon. If I wanna see what's going on in the country, the city and anything related to the region then I am obliged to be on Facebook. I suppose this is the case with most developing and non-english speaking countries.

  • Why has nobody ever heard of Distrobox? Let me tell you why everyone should take a look at it!

    Jump

  • I did an experiment where I used Distrobox for many apps not available on Debian. I installed an Arch distrobox and exported the packages. I found that it works great with simple programs, but I run into a few issues when using more complex programs. Jellyfin Media Player for example tended to have a memory leak and have a core dump on the desktop whenever it is closed. It uses twice as memory as the Flatpak for some reason. I had the same issue with Stremio which is also a video streaming app. For command line things it's mostly fine. But this too can get tricky. I tried to use Neovim (Debian's is a bit old) in the Arch distorbox. The issue is that if you need plugins that require some dependency with a given version then you have to also install those and export them which makes things messy. For example you may have a version of Nodejs on your Debian install but you'll need to install Nodejs on the distorbox too and export it. It's the same with many packages like that. You'll run into some issues and waste time trying to figure out where is it coming from. Is it your machine or the distorbox? I ended up just building from source. Overall it's a great project and might work for some software that you need. But it's not something you can always rely on for everything. The app devs are not testing for that specific use case. It's so great for testing and installing stuff and then destroying when you don't need it anymore.

  • Simple Gallery Pro vanished from F-Droid, any similar alternatives?

    Jump

  • There's a fork called Fossify that is expected to replace the Simple Mobile Tools. There's a Gallery and File Manager app already. I am not sure how it's different from the pro version though. It's a fork of the Simple Gallary app that was in Fdroid.

  • Trump won’t commit to discouraging violence among his supporters

    Jump

  • I never claimed Trump never said stupid shit, but there are many instances where it's so clickbaity which actually really helps Trump and his supporters. The appeal of Trump is that he posits himself as persecuted by the "woke mob" and "radical left". He also depicted as someone "saying it as it is" and saying what the "establishment" doesn't want you to say. There's some theoretical work that studies how this happens, and I think many leftists rarely pose the hard question of why he is having a mass appeal. It's not sufficient to just say "people bad and racist" and move on. The modern right succeeded in tricking everyone into seeing the left as this policing and hegemonic force out there trying to force you to say the right thing. It's so ironic given that the right is the actual hegemonic and moralize force. The trick that they pulled is spectacular tbh and usually the left plays right into their hsnds. The fact that Trump says bad shit is not gonna harm him. That's his entire appeal. It's funny that leftist media thinks the more they show he said bad shit the more unlikely he'll be supported. It's the exact opposite. It's the classic childish tragressive thing of "I am gonna say exactly what they want me not to say". We are in the age of the "rebel punk" right, which is so fuckin ironic. Of course it's not rebel or punk but they are formally in that positionz while the leftist is cast as the polished professor telling you what to say and what not to say. You can easily see the appeal of the right if you look at it this way, and see how this "trump said a bad thing" is exactly why he is popular.

  • The Arabic "muakhirah" means something like "the behind". Funny enough, it shares some roots with the word "muta'akhir" which means "being late" and "akhir" which means "the latest". It's polite and used even in some dialects to just refer politely to it. Every dialect though has other specific words that are more vulgar. Some are different in every country. Egyptians would use "Tiz" to refer to it and Moroccans would use the more vulgar "Zok". Middle Eastern countries also often use "Tiz".
