they show ads next to summaries of articles which, hey, blame the people for only reading the summary instead of clicking through to the source

but they do profit and I would like to see journalism Not become yet another Meta™ product

https://vger.app it’s a web app, there is an iOS TestFlight build that fixes a few of the bugs that running in safari introduces (and it has haptics!)

that’s not the screenshot screen though, it’s the app switcher (but you can screenshot the screenshot menu i think)

american car dependency and minimum parking requirements, mostly

sites doing this probably wouldn’t be worth using anyways

what about when your bank adds this? have you tried using a safetynet enforcing app on a rooted android phone? this has bigger implications than you’re seeing

Not everyone that's anti car has the luxury of living in a city that's not built around the automobile

you used URLs for your subreddit links but fwiw you can make links clickable for users from other servers by linking to (/c/community@serv.er)

From the site:

This is an independent DIY search engine that focuses on non-commercial content, and attempts to show you sites you perhaps weren't aware of in favor of the sort of sites you probably already knew existed.

Where this search engine really shines is finding small, old and obscure websites about some given topic, perhaps old video games, a mystery, theology, the occult, knitting, computer science, or art.

i know the fediverse has been pretty split and a lot of big instances (mainly microblogging and mastodon-like softwares, but some lemmy instances are defederating meta too) but what do you think?

i uninstalled wefwef to get the new icon in the last update, i had it installed as a pwa and it would show up in my app drawer like an actual installed app

now i click the same install button from chrome but it only lets me add it as a shortcut? i can't get it to install as an actual app

anyone else have this?

nevermind AIs, people will dogpile you and just generally be dicks over on that site even over something innocuous, and it's great being somewhere that spectre isn't hanging over your head

we all know Google's usefulness has diminished if you're searching for something the algorithm doesn't have it's nose on, personally i don't feel searxng (i used the nicfab.eu one) gives the best or most useful results either, what's out there?
