In your example would you ever donate money to a developer for software you had never used and have no intentions of ever using?
You might donate to a projects developer because you want them personally to keep on with the project, but that would likely only be ontop of the other reason that you want the software you are using to continue to be developed.
Otherwise it would make more sense to donate to charities.
I recently switched reading modes from “horizontal” page scrolling to infinite vertical scrolling and it made me read so much faster. It’s really quite weird that it affects anything at all.
As for “supporting the dev” I don’t really get this concept. Do you know them personally? Surely the point would be to support development of something you want rather than the people behind it. I’m in favor of supporting software development if it doesn’t violate any of my principles such as being adware.
As far as I can tell ReadEra non-premium doesn’t have any ads. This means the paid version is only about buying extra features rather than removing ads. This is a very respectable business model in a world where almost every other app out there tries to annoy you with ads until you pay them.
I use ReadEra regularly, but I think I’m going to buy the premium version since you brought it to my attention. The syncing feature could come in handy between my phone and tablet.
I love Dave. I just want him to be happy. 💀
Dave… I don’t know how to tell you this, but… you are dead.
Were photos really called flashlights in 1920?
What about on a Huawei phone? If it wasn’t there to begin with and had to be installed I’d expect it could also be uninstalled. I don’t have a Huawei phone to test it out.
By the traditional definition they are kind of wrong. I don’t agree at all with Googles relentless data harvesting and ads, but the software isn’t going to make copies to hide itself on your phone and make it difficult to remove. You would be able to uninstall it like any other app without it leaving anything behind.
So it is more like adware than a virus.
The grift that keeps on grifting.
Dynamic resolution? So it is going to bring you down to sub 1080p in order to run at a decent framerate? That doesn’t seem worth it.
I have nothing to hide here. The admins of lemmy world on the other hand do. They aren’t good people and your efforts here are misguided.
At any rate I’m going to block you as 100% of your post history is drama.
You have no idea what I think or believe.
Your post history is disturbing. Do you have an intentions of actually using this website or is your only goal to cause trouble?
Neat. Thank you for the info.
Good idea. At least it couldn’t hurt.
Looking at my phone the main apps I’d like to see get this theme treatment is Proton Mail, Libro.fm, ReadEra, MX Player, FX File Explorer, Duo Mobile.
Then I’ll be satisfied that everything matches.
At no point have I been angry about something here. This is about not putting all your eggs into one Lemmy basket. Especially one with inadequate people running it. The goal of Lemmy is decentralization, not centralization.
People need to urgently stop using Lemmy world so they no longer have any power to abuse.
Maybe they should try doing that then instead of changing things for no reason that aren’t broken.
What even is “fashion” in this context if not a single person will ever wear it?
