Yea my big problem is also that I need way more storage than what I have on my phone.

I’ve never personally had these issues. Sent large files without problem and never had discovery issues.

I’d love to use this but I just mostly don’t use multiple devices at the same time, so I don’t see how the sync would ever happen.

Been using it for a long time, it’s great!

How are you supposed to pronounce it?

I have used KeePass for many, many years and have never run into this. Besides, I usually have a copy of the database on some other device so I’m not too worried

I don’t think this is a problem. If the communities are similar enough, one will eventually win and be the bigger and main one. If they are different enough, they can continue coexisting.

I personally still feel like this brings the communities too close.

the Lemmy devs are very much against merged comments

For good reason perhaps? It merges distinct communities together, making communities less distinct. Different communities can have different moderation and participation standards and norms. Merging them I feel is a bad idea.

Tbf a substantial amount of voters did see the comment - at the time of writing, 297 upvotes on the comment vs 483 upvotes on the post, or ~61%. So actually most people do dig through the comments, if the upvote count is something to go by at least.

Anyone who doesn’t read comments is unlikely to read reader added context, so you’re probably not getting a large amount of the remaining 39% of people to get the context just because you add some extra UI feature.

Besides, explaining the context is a much longer affair than a title and just wouldn’t fit. It’s not like I would even say that the title of this post is misleading in the first place, it’s actually pretty to-the-point.

There’s also a chance that people will get the wrong idea about posts without the context - i.e. that posts without reader added context are super truthful somehow. I feel that people should rather accept that all titles of a few sentences are missing context. That is after all the point of a title - to summarize and bring only the most important information, which inevitably leads to a loss of context.

It is implemented. It’s known as “comments”. You are looking at it. There’s no need for any particular UI feature for this stuff.

We ought to moderate well and do better than elsewhere though. Well, at least I would hope that users would gravitate towards instances that moderate their users better, so we get more civil behavior.

Well, what is it then?

I hope we’ll get more options in the future as well - I’m working on my own alternative at the moment :)

Ask a group of anarchists…

Well yes of course, because “anarchism” is a very broad term that covers a lot of different ideologies. Two persons that both might say they are “anarchists” could disagree on a whole lot.

Maybe you should think a bit more complexly about what anarchism is (though I’m not trying to excuse any bad behaving instances out there).

all of computer science is based on the practical

I don’t understand this at all. Computer science is based on theoretical foundations that were developed way before any actual computer existed. This goes back more than 100 years.

We teach students computer science to make them into software engineers.

That’s only true if you studied a very practically-oriented education. Such educations are usually called “Software engineering” rather than “Computer Science”.

As a computer science graduate myself, my university definitely did not try to make me into a software engineer. It was very theoretical, with a clear focus on further research if that was what you wanted to pursue. You could get through the education quite okay and only ever write very little actual code. It was the maths that was the harder part to write.

Computer science is basically the study of software engineering

That’s not at all true if you ask me. Computer science is the study of data and computation, on a theoretical level. Software engineering is not theoretical at all, but very practical.

I’m completely fine with certain content being delisted because it is considered essentially on par with hate speech or something like that.

However, I really do not like that it is payment processors making that call. If someone makes that call, it should be the store in question (itch.io, Steam, whatever) or it should be the government.

Searching Prince Andrew doesn’t immediately give you the context and it’s not a pointless question because others (like me) may have the same question and would like to see the answer.

Good on him!
