Even if they fire him, his code still exists and is still legally theirs.
My boss legit says that he will give me some time to work on it every 2-3 months and then drops a “customer requires X feature and I promised that we will deliver in one week”. And mind you we have to patch up to 3 major versions in the past to back port the new feature because client haven’t upgraded and won’t in near future… which means sometimes our major releases are 60-70% same as our minor patches for old versions. Semvering much?
In the universe with 20-30% of actual inflation development costs will always rise even for indie because devs have to eat something and live somewhere. Not to mention software licensing and equipment
Great core gameplay, multiple boring or just bad patches; devs who care more about their imaginary milsim being close to their imaginary reality than about player fun; slow content rollout (still no new race despite them being leaked many months ago)
In the end I had my fair share of fun but I see no real reason to come back.
Always love blaming the tool instead of the hands that use it
That’s a con and a pro of decentralized net: if you don’t like the owner, pick another instance or create your own and be the king. Bad news is, every instance is controlled by couple regular folks who’re not responsible financially so they can imply their own rules and post and ban whatever they want.
Like the jungle: you gotta learn to survive and avoid the monkeys with rabies.
As per their ceo, they want to provide access to education to all (which is good since educated people are less likely to believe propaganda) and they do not monetize the app in that country in any way, which means no taxes going to putins pocket.
People are quick to jump to conclusions but they’re right here.
They do not have any profit in « that market » because app is demonetized in Russia and Belorussia though
That’s pretty much the main reason I migrated to proton pass… was bugging me for a year I think
Worth to note that their audio quality and anc is worse than competition noticeably. So its quality vs environment
Throwing money into the fire to escape responsibility does not work? No way!
They're big but not even close to goliaths, their 24h online is at 40k more or less, which is nothing like CSGO or apex... Their all time high is less than apex daily active sadly.
I'm not saying their system is bad, but I am saying that it is still not tested for a large scale though.
Windows 11 just isn't enticing Windows 10 users to upgrade, and its market share is actually falling
I thought I was alone in this lol
Win11 literally made me rage uninstall it after I got mad trying to remove all bloatware and then it showed me onedrive ad
Pretty sure it's crazy expensive on a large scale, I don't think that people will pay monthly fee to keep playing apex/val/insert game. And more than sure these companies will try to force players to pay for it :/ Previously I had a small chat with aimlabs devs about application of neural networks for it (detecting weird patterns and irregularities, that what NNs are good at as well) but as I understood it would be expensive as well since obviously you want to run the model on your backend's side... It's and endless war between both sides without silver bullet ATM and I don't really understand why people are so mad about my comment lol
Many people criticize that, but I can't really think of any non invasive solution to draw away cheaters, except making specialized device to play the game (sort of PS4 to play one single game only?), but pretty sure it won't take long for cheat providers to crack it as well... Sadly.
Kinda jealous tbh, I couldn't get my Google news to actually work and it was 40% spam 40% clickbait 20% American news (and I live in Europe)
Yes its one time for android, if you're earning money with ads or purchases, google will take 1/3 of that amount, then you will have to figure out taxes on your own and there's also some special policies for selling online goods in India, but if you're just making apps - its one time fee to be able to upload them to google play store, or you can just distribute with froid/github for free, which is a great route as well
0.2.3
- fix own profile reloading (own comments/posts)
- new option to swap colors for voting buttons :)
- dynamic header added to post screen
so far so good I think? Dynamic header works more or less nicely I hope.
GPlay release will take some time because expo hit me with 3 hours queue for build.
From the perspective of FOSS developer:
I simply don't want to pay €100 every single year to Tim Apple to make a free hobby app.
Android has more ways to distribute, and the "official" way is one time €25 fee and that's it.
If I wanted to use the touchscreen, I'd rather get a tablet or use my phone. I would like to see the capability to open actual apps, not just chrome. In this case, even ipad is more capable than chromebooks because it can actually run lots of stuff, even video editing software.

- new settings screen
- data saving mode (settings -> behavior) that will not load images unless you open them
- new dynamic header for general feed (settings -> look and feel) for now, later will be rolled to more screens if everything will go fine
I know I've been slower with updates, but the app is fairly usable for now and I'm always happy to take feature requests into consideration. Want to experiment with new header for a bit as well... :)
0.2.1
github.com Release 0.2.1 · nick-delirium/lemmy-fennec
This is a small release that contains fixes for initial state and loaders for state, profile + feed will now refresh on profile change. Full Changelog: 0.2.0...0.2.1
Very small release that fixes how app behaves once it is opened (0.2.0 sometimes skipped loading feed until you tap something -- for some reason), now initial state loads correctly. Plus, feed will refresh once you change accounts (to avoid JWT token mismatch after you do something with posts)

With lemmy.world being down so much today I thought I'd better do this asap, to make everyone's experience easier.
new stuff
- Account picker. Is lemmy.world down again? Simply jump to your backup account on startrek.website and all's good!
- User banners in all user profiles (if they exist)
- Added notification toasts for a few more actions for clarity
- Changed how followed communities are loaded. Now you see all and they're sorted alphabetically. Downsides? Can't see subscriber count... for now.
- Some small stylistic changes across the app.
Do you think that this release is good enough to turn open testing into full release in Google Play? I'm thinking about doing that next week maybe.

- you can reverse voting buttons order in settings (I noticed that many people prefer it the other way)
- posts and comments will no longer flash/change opacity when you touch them, so scrolling them will be less distracting
- links to other instances will now open in browser instead of just failing with error (atm its impossible to grab local federated link from instance link sadly)
- added button "show all comments" on posts where you're just watching a child comment (/reply)
- show toast badge on file load
- display own profile banner (for now only own profile, next update - all users)
- added community icon to own comments/posts and replies
- added prompt window for adding a link to post
as usual, live on obtainium and will be there in google play soon

0.1.4 was skipped because it mainly contained fixes for google play store
- fixed post reporting
- now you can block community from feed
- fixed "load X more" button for comments (it used to output duplicates)
- fixed app permissions, removed few that we dont use
internal stuff:
- fixed crashlooping during build process
- updated eos version
- updated peer deps
Reminder about feedback post here: https://lemmy.world/post/2590198
This update will be in google play store today.
Just a small survey for my users
- What features do you think this app is still missing?
- What could be improved?
- Anything that just upsets you or makes your life garder than it should be?
I hate when things like this pop-up inside apps or websites, so I decided to simply make a post, even knowing it will reach smaller audience. :)
so far:
- Double tap on feed button should go to back to top
- Replies marked as “read” are still shown in unread replies
- A click on the own profil picture should show it in a bigger version
comments flashing on touch in posts- tap on top to change sorting
- more customization
- multilemmy (waiting for api on this one, dont want to ddos servers)
Banner is not visibleCommunity icons are missing on proifl page in “comments” and “posts”url prompt in md textposts flashing on touch in feed
We're on Google Play!
play.google.com Arctius - Apps on Google Play
An app for Lemmy, reddit-like federated link aggregator
Finally sorted everything related to google's review, privacy policy etc etc and now the app is available to download in Google Play store. Its a bit behind in terms of version, but it will catch up fairly soon I hope.
Note that its in open testing right now and might not be available from search.

- Ability to jump to next parent commend
- New action to comment a post
- Shorten large number of comments, votes i.e "1567" -> "1.5K"
- Ability to ignore instance or keyword in post source
- Action icons in posts and comments are slightly larger (additional 3 px radius around them) to make them easier to tap
Decided that I have enough fun things to bump a version number and release it, especially because I myself got tired of putting new nsfw communities to block from my "all" feed :)

Thats gonna be first release under the new name. I've decided to pick this semi-rubblish name because it's fairly unique and reminds of arctic foxes, which fits the app's icon.
Whats new?
- Ability to attach images to posts
- Fixes for posting in mod-only communities
- Fixes for spelling in few prompts
- Fix for commenting on posts that only include embeds (without text)
- Fix for embed rendering
- Small things causing crashes
