matrix is much better than discord IMO

These two things just aren’t directly comparable. You need an application to use Matrix, and there are only a handful that support all the features and of them, only a couple are stable and of those, none of them have a good (or any) UX for onboarding or administration or for channels with a large membership.

Element is the poster app for Matrix, but its clearly made by and for the people who design the protocol. Why do channels get an unread indicator when someone changes their name? Why must I see every time a user joins or leaves a room with no setting to turn it off for large rooms? Why can’t I turn off unread indicators for a room I really don’t care about constantly staying up to date on? How does the app even allow people to sign in without verifying their device cryptographically, so the app can announce to everyone else that they are an incomplete user? I can go on and on. I’m really liking Sable so far as an alternative, but it is constantly breaking and still suffers from some of the same issues as they’re just bound to the protocol.

I use these apps, I like them, but if they’re better than Discord to you then I’m happy, but you’re an edge case.

Sorry, you didn’t deserve this rant. Please forgive me. I hope fluxer (and matrix of course) does well and I am interested in how polyproto ends up working for it.

Yeah they’re like the first words in it too, oops haha. Thanks!

I mean… What’s the price? If it has “lukewarm” performance but only has a “lukewarm” price, then its competitive.

apolitical is also a word with a definition

iirc these changes have been in proton ge for quite a while now for supported installs.

I agree that the comment was rude. Specifically with the “barely tested” asumption/accusation.

ESH

When you’re right, you’re right

I haven’t used nextcloud in years. Has it gotten any better with external storages, specifically when there are many files in one directory? It used to time out/become unresponsive in that situation, and make many unnecessary database requests/updates.

I really don’t understand why Intel’s response to finally having a worthy competitor after market domination is just to absolutely crumble and hinder any potential return to form. It seems they had a good thing for a couple years with their last CEO, but they got rid of them right when the fruits of that labor started to show (chip work is usually a multi year long process, so results aren’t regularly seen right away, is my understanding).

I’ve been seeing waaaay too much unwarranted vitriol and anger in comments lately, for things that really aren’t that big a deal (like Linux vs windows) and I find it disappointing. As a community we should want Lemmy to grow, and yes that does mean we will get more “normie” posts, but imo that’s good and if someone doesn’t like it they can use more niche community spaces, which there will be more of with a larger userbase.

If the host has Plex pass other accounts dont need it to watch, iirc.

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but Nvidia has the worst drivers by far right now. 50 series cards are crashing left and right.

One minute for you and me, but that sort of thing just isn’t feasible for many even if they have someone walking them through it over the phone.

People can change. Not everyone is born aware of the seriousness of making that kind of joke.

I personally don’t follow him so I don’t personally have an opinion on whether he has changed, but I believe that people have the capability.

I want to believe they just said he died so they could let him live a free life away from NK.
