He said he was UK based… 100% unenforceable, an employment tribunal wouldn’t even bother hearing it

If you replaced “company” with “monopoly” in your last sentence, I agree.

Also it depends what’s driving that attitude… if it’s an ethos from Gabe then great but he won’t be around forever… what happens when he dies/retires?

Many companies have started with great ethics that went out of the window when the founders moved on, and Steam is in a fantastic position to enshitify if it wanted to.

Playing devil’s advocate, I’d argue the in the wild community testing is more likely to uncover an edge case that the formal testing didn’t envisage…? 🤷🏻‍♂️

ios autocorrect was already pretty dreadful

Market cap of Nintendo - 50 billion Market cap of Microsoft - 2.4 trillion

From what he’s said he’s not abandoning it but I guess it won’t advance much or as quickly… he’s only just said so we don’t really know if and how it’ll impact things

Same here, currently using Avelon and pretty happy with it… Voyager dev recently announced he’ll be working on it less going forward which may or may not be an issue 🤷🏻‍♂️

Both definitely feel like using “Apollo for Lemmy” though 👍

Depends on the communities… quite often they consist of one or two users (or bits) reposting old or current Reddit posts.

And certainly for more niche topics the communities tend to be dead.

Quite often there is little commenting or conversation.

The communities with the most conversation seem to be about Lemmy and the Fediverse…

But yes there are a couple of decent communities in my Home feed, but the whole needs to grow to get it to a tipping point where it provides an active and diverse (in topics and conversation) community.

This has always been the case for road cameras in the UK from the start from when we first had speed cameras introduced, before they are sent out they are (supposed to be) reviewed by a person first to check for false positives.

Edge was my main browser until about six months ago, then they pushed that obnoxious UI change that added a load of buttons to my toolbar that I can’t move or disable, and that irritating sidebar that jumps up whenever it can even when the button is disabled, and I went back to Firefox again.

I like Ivory for Mastodon (it’s by the guys that originally made Tweetbot for Twitter) and I use Voyager for Lemmy (basically it’s Apollo reborn) and am trying out Liftoff as it has a few features I like that Voyager doesn’t (yet) and testing Artemis for Kbin.
