probably because the relay is running off a mac or mac vm.

That's too bad, that is the main thing I feel kbin could use is a good app. The web app seems a bit hit or miss.

@lemmy.world While their costs have increased dramatically, wages have overall not kept up. Food or game, people will pick food. As a side pet peeve, how about more companies actually release a non broken day 1 game that doesn't need a zillion patches to be playable first?

I have zero interest in going back beyond possible a big meeting type thing or something. Open office plans are one of my personal hellscapes. I can't hardly focus on what I'm doing for all the movement and noise. I do get it for certain types of jobs but I'm a dev and can collab online with less distractions and get my stuff done. My stress level is less and my boss is still happy.

Very true, but then leave it in a bag/locker.

@fne8w2ah. When I was a kid, toys, whatnots, etc could be taken by the teacher to be returned when they saw fit or off to the office and whenever the principal decided. I'd assume the same rules would apply to a smartphone.

@Kovu. Your average person will go oooh Instagram, I know them. Sign me up for the new app! Privacy, security, etc never even were involved. Of course that also assumes Meta didn't just "create" one for each IG user (no clue what the usercount is).

@Arotrios Why would I want an inferior version of mastadon? But seriously I will likely only end up with one if they auto generate it. (a few family use ig and fb as their only communication so it's checked occasionally via web with adblockers etc....ugh).

@Zuberi. Beyond the DDOS attack there other day I've only seen a bit of lag once or twice, no disconnects. Maybe I'm playing at less busy times. I do wish it had an offline mode but so far it's not caused much trouble for me. As for why....I had been talking about it coming up with some friends and my wife asked what I was talking about. A few days later she surprised me with it as a gift.

@L4s. It's threatening their wallet. Who wants to buy ads if ads are disabled or all the discussion you were targeting is suddenly free for all/john oliver? Who will keep a subscription if their frequented subreddits are effectively useless because of protesting (assuming they aren't supporting the protests, etc).

@vaguerant Yeah if you believe in an afterlife, another plane of existence.....that's when he'd put 2+2=4. Most likely he didn't even have time register it

@floofloof

@Coliver Well crud, I thought it was doing pretty well and that they had said it was renewed.
