  • Someone I’m in a Discord group with wanted an invite to bluesky because it was more familiar to him than Mastodon.

    He pretty much wanted a like-for-like replacement for Twitter, though to his credit he had already tried Mastodon before dismissing it out of hand.

    It’s not that he disliked it exactly, but he wasn’t that interested by what he saw so didn’t stick with it - to each their own


  • I joined Mastodon last month and so could finally sort of see how it would work - if you were using your Kbin account to log into Mastodon for example you could share a post from a Lemmy community directly to your Mastodon followers.

    That is very cool.

    The rest is a bit clunky like you say though. I could use my Kbin account to post to Mastodon from this community. Would that serve any purpose? Doesn’t appear so. Might become clearer in the future



  • Yeah to be fair I’ve always had a Samsung, either flagship or midrange and never had an issue.

    Samsung has gone way overboard with their pricing for flagships recently but their midranges are pretty decent on that score and I guess I just go with them because I’m happy with what I’m getting now. The A52s is what I have now, upgraded from an S10+ which had pretty much the same specs.

    In terms of bloatware, I just disable it or uninstall it, same as I do with any software which comes on a work phone or home PC that I don’t use. Is this a big deal?

    As for pixels - it’s great that they get regular updates. But they’re also expensive. They seem to look nice. Generally speaking though I agree they are the attempt to do an iPhone version of Android which probably only really matters in the US market
