android only, right?

Whoa. Never heard this. Thanks for the link!

Weeks of coverage over a few billionaires out on a lark to view a shipwreck and this is the first I’ve heard about more than 80 people dying in another sinking.

The difference is money.

Some people literally would prefer to see the world burn. No idea what’s up with that form of psychological gratification from destruction, but fuck them.

New to this whole lemmy/kbin/etc. thing.

There’s no SSO for these instances? That’s unfortunate.

Originally it was a sub that had content where something hung in the balance and you weren’t sure what the outcome was going to be, sort of like nononoyes or whatever.

It turned into tiktok/scripted videos with a scripted outcome. Garbage.

/BIFL (buy it for life)

This one struggled for a while. At first it was artisanal created stuff that was low-run, high-cost, “hipster” stuff. Like hand-made boots, hand forged knives, hand-stitched leather goods like satchels. Then it was Darn Tough Socks. Lots of socks. Fjallraven. Jansport backpacks. Then people began to debate what could be BIFL because a lot of people wanted to post long-lasting electronics, but the rebuttal was always that electronics get outdated or unsupported. While these last two things were being debated, old shit that people found in their parent’s or grandma’s attic began to appear. 1970s electric carving knives. 1895 singer sewing machines. 1970s electric drills. Shit nobody had used in decades, used rarely, or couldn’t be bought anymore.

I left at that point.

Literally just tried to open it 10 minutes ago. Goodbye, Apollo. Thanks for the great app, Christian, and for dispelling all the BS that /spez tried to spew.

Just tried to open Apollo. It no longer works. I left Reddit and came here.

RIP.
