Yuppp nearly perfect
Damn, used that app for so many years. By far my favorite.
Huge fan of this iteration of my rig
Just added the tablet live dashboard to my ever-changing sim racing rig.
I really like the way it turned out. It's just an old Galaxy Tab4 attached to the desk with a car mount. Running SimHub and Simhub Android app.
It allowed me to stop using RaceLabs Advanced Panel Overlay which I was looking to do. Plus it looks neat.
Some info about the rig for anyone who cares...

Update 2.9 Has Been Pretty Great
I've been rocking OTA 2.9 on my Polestar 2 for a few weeks now, and I have to say, it's been an impressive update.
One of the standout features for me has been the improved efficiency app. It's a fantastic addition that I've been enjoying watching the graph change based on my driving and the road.
There was a poll a while back about Pilot Assist holding too far to the right or left. It was interesting to see mixed responses. Some folks agreed while others claimed they hadn't experienced the issue at all.
I was one of the unlucky ones who experienced a problem on a particular stretch of highway where Pilot Assist would uncomfortably stick to the right side of the lane. However, with update 2.9, I haven't encountered this problem again on the same stretch of road. It's worth noting that there haven't been any documented changes to how Pilot Assist functions, nor any modifications to the road (like repainting the lane markings, for instance).
All in all, I believe the 2.9 update is a

Holy shit that's sleek. Gonna give that a go for a while.

Oh interesting, I'm curious on the answer to this as well.
God joey is the best damn app ever. There hasn't really been much talk from the dev apparently, but hopefully someone comes up with an elegant solution.
It's so close to being what I need.
Right now you can hide read posts.
I just need it to hide on scroll past and a quick way to toggle read.
Also not hide my own posts at least under profile when I have hide read on.
Then it would be perfect for how I'd use it.

hide post after viewing?
Hey all. One of the best features of 3rd party reddit apps was hiding the post once you viewed or scrolled past so that you wouldn't see the same post each time you open the app/site. I believe this one done via the hide post feature via 3rd party apps. Does Lemmy support anything like this? Thanks!
