Oh, gonna try them too. Thanks for the tip!

That’s my music player too.

Both (Sync and Boost) are, in my opinion, the best Lemmy apps. An extensive set of features and customisation, lovely interface, they are 5 star products.

Same with F for Facebook!

Don’t remember right now. Been reading a couple of Israeli news sites in English, al-Jazeera, and some other news sites, so whatever I say to you now might be misguided. Anyway, as far as I recall right now it wasn’t speculation.

Well, the fact that most of them went back to Gaza makes me doubt that previously quoted number.

In any case, I hope Hamas gets an obliterating hit and can’t recover, and that Israel remembers that not all Gaza is Hamas, so this is over as soon as possible with no more innocent lives lost.

Just answering to the first question: As of today, according to Israeli media, that number is quite off.

Yep. I never use sms nor other messaging systems save for WhatsApp. Not that I’m a fan of it since it was bought by Facebook, but it is what everybody here uses, and it works quite well, reliably, and has an interesting set of features.

I somehow envy your optimism.

Thanks a lot for that link. I am a hardcore science fiction nerd, yet I had never crossed paths with that one. Indeed relevant in this debate, too.

Not that I like it, and I really do like certain Linux distros, but in my case I have to use some software that runs well on Windows and isn’t available under Linux. Alternatives aren’t as good, and the versions I need don’t run well (or not at all) on WINE. As far as proprietary OSs go, I find Mac OS much better than windows, both in general user interface, integration and how smooth it runs and feels, but as a choice it’s even more expensive than Windows. Better, yes, but more expensive.

When/if the software I need find runs under Linux I’ll stop using windows, I guess.

This one is just one answer to your question. I’m sure there might be some more.

Edit: runs

Same for me. But I don’t use Reddit’s own app on mobile. I use Boost, because it’s still allowed for moderators, since Reddit’s app is shit for that. Doesn’t matter if you aren’t yet a moderator. Go there on a browser on a PC or Mac. Create a new subreddit. Great, now you’re its moderator. Then enter with Boost (on Android), and that’s it.

Anyway, the more people leave Reddit to cross the pond and get to Lemmy, the best.

Not the one you’re replying to, but sometimes you’re just a follower of some community, because you lack the knowledge to be more than that even when you are interested in the subject. To create/moderate a community, or even to be quite active in it, isn’t for everyone, I guess. No need to insult someone because they can’t do more than they’re able to.

In my opinion, that is.

True, yet it still isn’t, as far as I can see.

Sync and Boost are indeed outstanding, just like they were on Reddit. My two favourites, no doubt about it

Yeah. Even when many niche communities are still there, I prefer to bet on Lemmy and its growth instead of supporting what was once great and now is only an ego megatrip for Spez and his overgrown ambition and greed.

Here it feels nice and cozy. I like it a lot. And also, the developers of my two favourite Reddit apps will soon unveil their apps for Lemmy (same name even). Check soon for Boost for Lemmy and Sync for Lemmy.
