Looks like someone created a pull request (a code submit) for iOS client last month then conversation stopped

 

I wanted to connect with my Guardian Tales players but i could not find any post/community for it, or gacha gaming in general

Is anyone interested in creating a new community for GachaGaming, or even better for Guardian Tales?

Do you have Elite? Their free version seems enough for me but I saw no Ads on elite which means it likely has ads in the free version

I wonder if it has many/in the way ads before trying out

Is there a real life issue that people faced or this is all theories? I haven’t seen any sites blocking me yet with ads blocker used?

Do you know exactly what Discord track?

Can someone give me an easy to understand example of what they are proposing? Assume that I don’t allow them to install any software/tool that helps them track me/my device.

I saw this comment and found it helpful but its still not clear to me

At its core, it establishes software components called "attesters" that decide whether your device and/or browser is "trustworthy" enough - as defined by the website you are trying to visit. Websites can enforce which "attesters" users must accept, simply by denying everybody access who refuses to bow down to this regime; or who uses attesters that are deemed "inappropriate"; or who is on a platform that does not provide any attesters the website finds "acceptable".

In short: it is specifically designed to destroy the open web by denying you the right to use whatever browser you want to use, on whatever operating system. It is next-level "DRM", introduced by affiliates of a company that already has monopolized the browser market. And the creators of this "proposal" absolutely know what they are attempting here.

Its in their FAQ

But how do/will you make money?

We are not prepared to begin charging for usage of Anytype while the app is still in beta, and we rely on our community not to take advantage of the free storage that’s currently offered.

When we do begin to charge, our principles are as follows:

Users should be charged only for the resources they consume. That means that in the short term, we will charge for paid backups of spaces above a certain storage limit. This limit has not been determined, as we still need to understand the true load and cost of hosting spaces on our infrastructure.

In the medium term, our goal is to evolve from an app into a digital cooperative in which you can pay to become a member. Membership comes with benefits such as the ability to publish objects and spaces under a name of your choosing, discoverability in the Any ecosystem, and the right to participate in the earnings of the cooperative based on your contributions.

This is still unclear for me to understand how sync works, because if it does not suit me, mo way I would be using it.

For example I mostly type on mobile, then when I open my laptop, the app will try to sync between my phone and my laptop, with their server helping establishing the connection? I don’t see how its gonna work well since both has to be online and have good Internet at the same time

Very nice write-up. Was it fast for you to use? Notion has gotten quite slow for me on mobile

I still do not understand how their sync work, based on their description:

synced in your local p2p network

Can someone please explain this to me?

Their FAQ is pretty good , but it still does not answer that question

 

After moving here from lemmy.world after learning of their view on federation with Threads, I now face a dilemma which I do not have a clear answer to.

Should I continue contributing to my niche communities on Instances federating with Threads, or build similar communities on other Instances blocking Threads?

I have a feeing this issue is not a one off, but a common one going forward, so it’s better to settle it once and for all. Below is my thought so far. What would you do in my case?

I love to post or comment on my favourite niche communities to share my experience with others and grow them. Those communities are small in size and they usually exist in certain instances only.

One one hand, having everyone in the same place would be much more beneficial since the community is not split and spread across the fediverse. We would also have better discussions with people from different background and diverse point of views.

On the other hand, I do not feel my contribution is in the right place anymore, if let’s say I post on lemmy.world. I don’t want Threads to benefit from my posts/comments and I want people to join Lemmy. Why would Threads users join Lemmy if they could subsribe to our communities?

I wish my communities were instance-independent so this barrier can be removed. I can create a similar community here but it is the last thing I would want to do.

Having written all these down, I realised this was exactly the same situation how I came to Lemmy from reddit, i.e. communities split across Internet due to issues we have with the platform/instance we are on. I guess discussion on platform/instance-independent communities can be a topic of its own

Edit: formatting and clarified my points and updated my question to reflect that
