Hold a teaspoon in your mouth while you do it (upside down so you don't poke yourself in the eye or whatever works best). Nullifies it instantly.

Q: what does combining with Powertoys Run give you? I used to use Everything but dropped it this year for Powertoys Run as it seemed good enough at this point and meant one less program (although I'm sure Everything is very efficient.)

Beyond delighted. Feels like coming home! Rocket launched 🙂

Personally, I wasn't too worried by the pricing model of Sync, and I'm usually tight AF - I think post- the great 3rd party client purge of Reddit it's clear to me just how much value they brought to my browsing experience, so I'm happy to support the developers.

I think people who say these apps already exist and it's just a case of porting to the Lemmy APIs are massively underestimating the actual amount of work involved to do these apps justice on Lemmy. £20 or so to support the developer and gain an ad-free experience seems entirely fair to me!

I recommend a DNS-based ad blocker like NextDNS. Works on everything, everywhere!

This was exactly my (dumb, layman) view of things - great idea hobbled from the outset by the marriage of slow web apps with slower hardware.

I just tried searching for these and I'm genuinely confused. Is it not just...a hoodie made of light material? I mean, surely most if not all clothing will stop you getting burnt.

I too like fancy pencils. Mitsubishi's range are my faves.

For me it's the bizarre inability to set a subreddit's default view mode to be swipe. That extra button tap every time I'm on a picture heavy sub is a real chore. Boost can do it so why not Sync? 🤷

Super appreciative to have Sync for Lemmy to use in the meantime, but it's only increased my appetite for the real deal - Boost for life!

[-] Pyrrhichios@feddit.uk 2 points 1 year ago

Seconded. NextDNS is incredible and you don't even have to subscribe to get the benefit unless you're a super heavy user.

It's like I've gone from using a promising alpha for a Reddit replacement to a near-finished product. I love it.
