Right now all the apps are being developed at lightning speed I’m on iOS so the easiest to get running for me has been wefwef since it’s a webapp (the other apps aren’t on the app store yet). It copies the apollo layout. If you’re on android then look around, there are probably better alternatives.
I am currently enjoying wefwef, jerboa, and thunder the best. Liftoff is good, but not connecting with all instances (lemm.ee, etc). I have tried connect, not my style. Personally am waiting for Sync, was my favorite on reddit.
boost for lemmy is coming soon on google play store (at least to G play store) Very similar to boost for reddit we had before. Will personally probably install it.
Probably. But if they don't get it here, they'll find it elsewhere. We shouldn't change things to mollycoddle people who are constantly seeking a reason to be offended.
They’d lose their little minds at the countless species that shift gender when necessitated by circumstance, not to mention the ones that generally propagate their line by mating with themselves. Don’t even get me started about the evolutionary origins of “labyrinthine vaginas” or the necro proclivities of sea otters. 🤦🏼♂️
Simply put: a healthy reading habit is a great inoculation against idiocy. Critical thinking is invaluable.
edit: I’m not drawing a line between any of that, except to point out that a lack of knowledge is no foundation for loud opinions.
For real, though. I hope I’m alive to see the archaeological science tech improve to the point we can finally uncover the story about that mystery baby-daddy: was he a local, and that’s why they left town? Maybe he was a traveling sandal salesman (there’s a lot of foot washing in that book, just sayin’), and Joseph got wind he was spotted in Bethlehem? Somebody’s got that ancient tea, and I wanna sip!
a lack of knowledge is no foundation for loud opinions
In my experience a lack of knowledge is the main foundation for loud opinions. Those who have more knowledge tend to be quieter, and more willing to rethink their opinions when presented with an opposing argument
I will happily distance myself from a hateful person WAY before I distance myself from someone just for existing. Only one is an active choice.
If unreasonable exclusion of people is so harmless, these hateful people really shouldn’t give a shit. I’ll pick a happy person over a raging person any day.
They are falling for the same logical missteps that cable took. Losing customers = rate hikes. Pushing more away leading to more rate hikes. Instead they should be lowering costs and finding ways to encourage people to come back
Don’t forget the shitty product too. TV and movies are mind numbingly bad these days. Sure there’s the occasional good/great show or movie, but the vast majority are just shit. Add that to everything else you pointed out and it’s no wonder they’re in trouble and keep hiking the fees.
I live near an Alamo Drafthouse in Colorado and never went to movies more since they started doing $7/ticket Tuesdays in like February which I believe was only meant to be limited time originally but SO MANY people kept coming and getting food/drinks/popcorn/etc they’re still doing it. It’s very smart on their part that they may be losing money on the movie ticket but getting their staff paid more so it works out.
Yep, people like going to a show. It’s a simple equation of cost vs reward. As the other response mentioned, movies just aren’t worth 20 bucks plus 15 for food. They aren’t good enough. For 7, I would totally go.
I don’t believe so but I do think they will see continual decline after this. I’m envisioning more of a repeat of MySpace where everyone just loses interest.
this is absolutely wild. where do you live? we go to the “emagine” theater chain and have been able to get the front row “cuddle seats” for 12$. it sits two of us to one loveseat. bring a friend/partner or have a giant seat to yourself. i think emagine is only in a few states tho (USA).
