It is for quite some time.

It could be much better if they would finally release an app for mobile devices. At least for me it’s the major showstopper.

„Tbh, I should have delayed the loops.video countdown timer by 1 more week.

That would have given me enough time to resolve the delays we are currently facing.

I apologize, and am working diligently to get @loops into your hands ASAP!

Your patience is greatly appreciated while I work on this.

The hype is real, soon y’all will make history by participating in the first fediverse platform dedicated to short looping videos, and the first mobile only fediverse platform 🚀“

I would prefer to let Bluesky die silently instead of throwing a life line.

As mentioned: It’s not the silver bullet solution but something that raises the bar for abuse. The reputational score is build up over time on the specific server based on the up- and downvotes you received.

So, yes, this can be abused itself as well - but it requires a lot more effort.

People may not like it but a reputation system could solve this. Yes, it’s not the ultimate weapon and can surely be abused itself.

But it could help to prevent something like this.

How could it work? Well, each server could retain a reputation score for each user it knows. Every up- or downvote is then modified by this value.

This will not solve the issue entirely, but will make it less easy to abuse.

No, they don’t.

The switch off far too late. The battery is built for weight and size, not for durability. The do not keep a margin to preserve battery life and charge way too high and too low.

Replacing batteries is the wrong approach, because it wastes resources we don’t need to waste.

I’m firmly convinced that 5 years battery life is achievable, if we just force the companies to do it. It’s just cheaper for them not to do it right now. And companies always do what is cheapest.

And worse: This legislation will actually cement the battery degradation, because the companies have even less reason to build batteries that last. “Just replace them!” will be the answer if it’s dead after 6 months.

This is exactly what happens in cars. Usually, you have an 8 year warranty for your battery.

Yes, a phone is smaller. Less space and weight. But 5 years are less as well. The electronics can track everything, shut the phone down if it’s too hot (and not when it’s so hot that it’s in danger to burst into flames like it is now). Adjust the charging speed by temperature. Do not charge the battery to 100 %. …

All things the manufacturer can influence.

I don’t even want to replace my battery. I want it to last. At least 5 years.

Bring legislation that enforces a 5 year warranty on batteries that are built-in. That would help the environment much more than being able to replace a battery every year that shouldn’t fail in the first place. And yes, it’s possible to build batteries that last longer. It’s more effort, true. But so is building exchangeable batteries or doing an exchange. I rather shell off 50 € more for my phone when I know that the battery will make it 5 years.

The question is rather for an overview. I’m actually using Mlem already. But it is pretty cumbersome to check all possible channels whether they might a new app, an update or the like.

So, a page that tracks all existing clients, clients in development and plans would be really helpful.

I would like to jump on this question and express my interest as well. Not only for Lemmy/Kbin, but for everything Fediverse, including Calckey/Misskey, Mastodon, etc.

It almost looks like Reddit is trying to commit suicide in the fastest possible way.

I still have an account there. But I will delete it the moment the Apollo goes dark.
