Lemmy Reddit That

I don’t mind paying ~1300€ for a new phone, if that phone meets my need. I know it’s a little bit too much according to how much would other people spend, but if I can get more stuff done with that phone, I think it’s money well spent.

It has extensions support on mobile. I can’t live without uBlock Origin. I installed Firefox on PC because of synching between Firefox on PC and Firerox and Android. I now stopped using this feature, but I kept using Firefox. I only use Chrome when pages don’t open correctly on Firefox.

Please don’t say that. I bought Fujinon XT-4 and a kit lens last year. I hope I won’t spend too much on accessories. (But most probably I will)

It’s not work as a company, but work I do in the company, that is preventing me from using linux. I am software delevoper, and we are developing desktop WinForms and WPF apps. The main problem here is that both WinForms and WPF are tied to Windows, and they are not working on any other OS. We would love to port those programs to another platform, but you can’t just port programs that are developed 10+ years overnight. Those project are just too big to port them in some normal time. And there are also 3rd party libraries, that we are required to use, that are made for .NET Framework only. I forgot to mention, that we are using .NET Framework, that is working only on Windows. We could use opensource .NET, which works also on Linux, but even in opensource .NET, both WinForms and WPF works only on Windows. We could use Avalonia instead, because it supports Linux also, but even that is not just straight forward. It would be easier to just create new programs from scratch, but you would still need to support older software, and we just don’t have time nor resources to do that.

I don’t think those things are obscure/quirky.

Weather prediction - Do you have any knowledge about how weather works or are you just random guessing? I would love to know more about how to predict weather, based on current and past weather.

Lockpicking - are you also trying to pick an actual lock. I am watching LockPickingLaywer on YouTube, it’s really fun to watch, because it’s really easy for him to pick a lock. But I don’t know where to start. I would love to at least try to pick some lock. Just for fun.

Gardening - that’s actually good experience to have. It’s not so easy to know how to garden and if you know that, good job. 👍

It’s not always so simple. I would love to use Linux at work, but my work doesn’t allow me to.

Thanks god I have unlimited 150/50 4g internet at home for around 42€ per month. This month we downloaded around 5.5 TB of data. Also small town, countryside, no stop lights, no businesses other than bars and shops. There is only one stop light in whole region. And whole region is getting fiber optic. We had DSL, but speeds were terrible.

Never understand why anyone would want to buy their music in the first place. I got tired of music really quickly, so buying would be waste of money for me, since, after some time, I won’t be listening to music I bought. For me, renting music is better than buying. And sometimes I would just like to find some new music, since I’m tired of listening to the same old s*it. Just give me something random, something new, I newer heard before. But that’s just me, and I believe this is not for anyone.

Hm… It doesn’t work for me on my own app, where notifications are main part of the app. It does work on Chrome for Android and on both Chrome and Firefox on Windows, but on Firefox I never received a single notitication. And all notifications are enabled. I will try to remove and add PWA in firefox again and we will see. Is there some PWA app where I can test if notitications are working? I am not using Twitter.

I think the feeder is not a problem. We mostly scan documents. I will look into those brother printers when the one we currently use stops working

Just random thought. Sounds funny.

This. I switched to Firefox on Android, because of extensions. At the same time I switched to Firefox on Windows. And I never looked back. The only problem I have is native support for PWA on Firefox for desktops (we can add support with 3rd party app), and backgorund notifications doesn’t work on PWAs on Firefox for Android

I would consider printing in shops, but we are in countryside and driving almost an hour to nearest city is just not worthy.

I would rather pay a little bit more for toner if it works. I am serously thinking about color laser printer when my printer stops wokring. I was looking at some brother color laser printer for around 250€ which is not a lof if this stuff works. Photo quality isn’t important for me, so I thinks this could work for us.

EDIT: Also, what about scanner? Does those laser printers have an scanner option?

My mother is teacher and she needs to often print at home (when she is not at the school anymore). Print shop would be the best option, but we are in country side and driving almost an hour to nearest city is just not worth.

Like I said in one of the previous comments, I would love to buy laser printer, but sometimes we still need to print at home with colors.

When I’m on Linux (most of the time), I’m using Libre Office, but sometimes I have to open some word document in Microsoft Office, because Libre Office don’t open it correctly.

I don’t play games and I don’t use expensive software (ok, beside Windows and Office). Mostly I don’t use my computer when I am not at work. I have other hobbies and I have enough of computer at work (I am a software developer). I only pirate movies and tv shows. I don’t even pirate music. I just use YouTube music, with turkish family account (it’s the cheapest, around 1,20€ - 1,80€ per month for 6 accounts). I was using Netflix, but since they started blocking account sharing I stopped using Netflix. It’s too pricey for how much I watch movies and tv shows. For Windows I usually download iso from microsoft, and find activator on mydigitallife forum. If I need to download some software (like Office for example) from some torrent tracker, I am lucky we have local private tracker that is known and used by whole country.

I am one of the user that switched over to Lemmy, just because of Sync. I heart about Lemmy when I opened Sync for Reddit in July, when it wasn’t working anymore. But app showed a message, that Sync for Lemmy is comming. So I created an account on Lemmy. Regarding automatic update over old Reddit app I don’t think so. I think it has different package name than Sync for Reddit.
