This is going over my head, what am I missing?

Pixelfed is more of the Instagram replacement.

Loops is TikTok focused.

No comment on the rest of your post, just FYI.

Those are for widgets that you choose to enable. Hard to access search features without permission to search, if you don’t want them, all you have to do is … not enable them / disable them if you flipped the on …

Kvaesitso is awesome, updates regularly, and was the best launcher I found that worked for my use case transition from Nova.

Granted I avoided trying a lot of the Freemium ones, or others.that were corporate controlled. Not interested in a forced migration 2.0, open source is nice cause it can always be forked if something happens.

The positions you take lately, and the arguments you make lately are increasingly disappointing.

No one owes .world anything… If those in control make questionable decisions, they are going to be called out regardless of aggressive moderation, it’s all federated, kinda the point.

“Can’t take he heat, get out of the kitchen…” and all that jazz…

What do you think happens when someone with a treatable condition that would normally lead to death is denied medication for that condition?

They don’t magically get better.

Under his leadership he had the highest (by far) denial of coverage rate of any healthcare company in the world.

And was trying to push the number of denial to 90+%.

That is millions of people.

Do you think they all magically got better?

The big question to me is, why doesn’t THAT bother you nearly as much? I don’t see your comments sharing any outrage in that direction.

It still looks pretty standard for a social media platform, it covers their bases for legalities. I can see how someone could read that and be concerned, but I’ll bet https://mastodon.social/@dansup would reply if someone asked a question for clarification on mastodon, he’s generally really good about that.

What exactly is a red flag there? It seems pretty boilerplate from a quick skim.

Wanna source that? Cause I’ve been following loops a bit and haven’t seen anything close to that. If anything it’s the opposite.

*applause

The story is just getting good, don’t stop now.

Like fishing in a barrel with a shotgun.

It’s so funny how you swarm like pirhannas with penis-envy when you get called out.

Thank you for proving the point.

Aight. I’m glad your anecdotal experience in life is indicative of mine and what I’ve interacted with, seen, and read.

Iono why I tried interacting with a hex user in the first place. It always seems to end up in derision and self-labeled omniscience.

The latter might have had a resurgence because of GoT, but I definitely heard the phrase before the show came out. I had to look it up to make sure, but it’s origins go back to the 1800s.

Completely valid point, but I think it’s important to talk about the amount of waste produced compared to other methods and how the comparably negligible amounts are manageable until we decide to clean it or “fire it off at the sun” or whatever.

It isn’t even close to comparable for the amount of environmental impact coal or plastic has had.

… You missed the point again… My interest in clarifying for you has died. Sorry it didn’t help.

You missed the point. At least from my reading you did.

If he was a typical Democrat voting in the closed primary to make more of an impact that makes some sense.

But his donations, based on the previous comments statement, made for a political opponent of Biden.

Meaning it doesn’t really work to just say he was typical R or typical D.

It’s not wrong, it’s just generally offensive since colloquially “it” refers to objects rather than a individual.

And as it follows, “it” is used as a insulting term when people want to dehumanize something.

Also it’s “They go” and “I go”, perfectly serviceable for singular use.

I like to categorize my apps. In Nova I have them divided into Web / Media / Games / Tools / System and I can swipe between each page (horizontally) of them. I use quite a few apps to do a lot of things tho, so *shrug.

I also really like the Sesame search integration, Lawnchairs adaption of Pixel Launchers is good. But there is style and behavior customization that Nova offers that Lawnchair doesn’t.

I am pretty particular about making my phone just look and behave the way I want it, of course it changes over time as phones and apps get better but yeah… It’s largely why I preferred Android from the start and have stuck with it

Lol nah. I tried it recently. Lawnchair is lacking in so much customization compared to Nova it’s kind of appalling to compare them imo.

That being said, if you are ok with the Pixel launcher and pretty basic / generic customizations Lawnchair is a pretty awesome app.

Oh no…?
