American magic bean companies like Beanco, The Boston Bean Company, and Nvidia

Omg 🤣

Lots of people mentioning collaboration / multiple users, yet all your replies seem to completely ignore this aspect. I’m guessing you might live alone and are struggling to imagine some very common use cases here.

Good call, let’s discourage deep thought and long form discussion. More clickbait and exploitation please!

Ok… Don’t think I said they couldn’t?

That’s not true. It depends on the codecs both devices use. But regardless, I mostly listen to podcasts and my hearing is by far the limiting factor in audio quality.

After experiencing true wireless ear buds, I’m never going back. Yeah no thanks, I don’t want to be literally tethered to my phone.

Element (over the Matrix protocol). As someone who grew up on IRC, it is in no shape or form a replacement for Discord.

There were multiple people confirming it. Meta can change things on their end at a moments notice. If you read the rest of the thread you’d see that the term you searched for is working again, but there are others that still aren’t.

You vastly overestimate the average person’s technical ability.

Why not both?

I use syncthing for transferring files around my local network, and nextcloud for sharing files with others.

IMO these are related tools but designed with very separate use cases. Use the right tool for the job.

Or install https://addons.mozilla.org/en-CA/firefox/addon/facebook-container/ for the less tech savvy / lazy

Same thing in Ontario. I actually have a Bachelors of Software Engineering, but am not legally allowed to call myself an engineer because I never got certified with the regulatory body.

Unevenly distributed, but also statistical bias. Anywhere you go obese people are less likely to be out and about.

Like Lemmy or any social media really, you get out what you put in. If you just follow the generic feed without following anyone, yeah it’s going to suck.

You can make lists, so one for your friends, one for news, one for a hobby. Or you can filter hash tags to really narrow in on a topic. People also make “starter packs” of who to follow for any topic you can think of.

This format is also unbeatable for breaking events.

That’s a very low bar ><

Also because of first past the post, most people’s votes don’t in fact matter. So personally I like to aim a bit higher.

I don’t do anything too sophisticated, just something like:

Scan this image of a recipe and format it as JSON that conforms to the schema defined at https://schema.org/Recipe.

Sometimes it puts placeholders in that aren’t valid JSON, so I don’t have it fully automated… But it’s good enough for my needs.

I’ve thought that the various Nextcloud cookbook apps should do this for sites that don’t have the recipe object… But I don’t feel motivated to implement this myself.

I take pictures of my recipe books and ask ChatGPT to scan and convert them to the schema.org recipe format so I can import them into my Nextcloud cookbook.

Because users value usability over privacy.

The major thing that make Mastodon unusable is lack of users. That and lack of algorithmic feeds.

That’s a good point. The original question was why would someone pick blenny Bluesky over mastodon? You just hit the nail on the head.

It’s because the vast majority of users value features and usability much higher than privacy.

Everyone pays for not using nuclear too, a thousand fold more so.
