If they haven’t visited us how will they know what the planet is called and how to spell it?

If you are on iOS and you uninstall then the cache is deleted. So it wasn’t a cache issue.

I remember that post you were told what was happening.

As far as I know, only HDPE is suitable for vinegar. Other types of plastic react with even a weak acid causing swelling/softening.

Why does bleach come in plastic containers ? Acids on the other hand (like vinegar) come in glass containers .

Why would bleach damage it?

I’ve also noticed that Bard has become “unfriendly”, if I didn’t know any better it’s got fed up with stupid humans.

This is so true, when you go there now it’s full of “reply guys”, gatekeepers and trolls. There’s little to no sense of community and the money grabbing is even more upfront and obvious.

Unfortunately it has some bugs that cause respring and even a reboot (never seen an iOS app do that before)

I’ve just had a really odd situation on iOS with the latest build. Go into a post and add a comment, come back out and the timeline jumps forward or occasionally back a few posts.

Mlem is now in the App Store with full 0.19RC support. Looks fantastic.

Have you seen the discussion over on Matrix in Liftoff Development. From what I can tell, someone new has been doing things that hasn’t merged. Other than that not much has happened.

But really none of that matters because what matters to end users is seeing the bugs they encounter squashed and that’s not happening.

I’ve suggested before that this might be a funding issue and offered that users could donate.

I get what you’re saying. There’s a mindset in the fediverse that everyone on an instance is responsible for it. Even if the bad actors join later. The instance gets defederated but as a user it can be really hard to know if your instance is defederated.

It’s a deeply unpopular opinion and anyone who suggests that federation is simultaneously a huge advance and a big problem seems to get downvoted.

You’re right, ultimately instead of being exposed to a range of views some of which are challenging we’ll end up in little echo chambers.

We need more moderation and less defederation.
