Hard agree! Thank you for saying this!!

I’ve truly loved Avelon and it seems to have the best native gif support of any app I’ve used, but I’m pretty sure the dev has abandoned it too ☹️
Same, but I’m starting to get concerned that we’re done with updates
Thanks for taking the feedback and continuing to work on this. Honestly, I thought you had given up on the app when you went on that fishing trip that just seemed to keep continuing 😆. Not knocking you - everyone deserves time to themselves. But glad to see this app is still something you’re working on!
Ok I’ll give you that - being able to inline gifs is sick
Honestly, it’s a couple things. First of all is just general compatibility. There are certain domains that don’t play at all (redgifs, for example). They just show up as links to click. Then, there are ones that are a little more transient, but still negatively affect the UX. An example is if you browse !videos@lemmy.world right now. The first post there (https://aussie.zone/post/6569161) won’t load for me in the feed, and will only load if I click into the post. Once it’s loaded, I can go back out and it’ll play in the feed - but no matter how many times I try or how long I wait, it won’t play in the original feed. Additionally, the play/pause, sound controls, and scrubbing controls are only available if I click into the post. They work, but it’s less convenient.
Here are examples of my experience in both apps:
Avelon (and I forgot to show you can scrub the gif directly in the feed)
Idk, the lackluster support for gifs has kinda killed it for me. I’m finding Avelon to be a much closer replacement
Painful read, as it resonates with me. I think I’m pretty hot shit but was humbled by the interview processes a few years back.
But in a different vein, found myself laughing at this reply in the comments:

This reminds me about the time I almost got fired. I was at work, playing an intense round of table tennis, when the CEO burst out of his office. “This is it everybody!” he yelled, running over to the Big Wheel. He gave the wheel a spin, and then hurriedly explained “I’ve got a linked list and I need to know if it contains a cycle!”
I watched the wheel slow to a stop and panic set in as I realized the pointer was on my name. All eyes were on me as the whole team rushed into the Coding Room. I opened our communal laptop and started up notepad, which was the only application it was capable of running. The CIO loved to brag how he had cut 1% of costs by eliminating laptop and IDE purchases.
Everyone watched intently as I started to implement a linked list in C, which I needed to do before starting on the actual problem. I was pretty sure I knew how to solve this problem, so I started banging out some code. Then I hit a mental block. Someone behind me said meekly “couldn’t we just google this?” The crowd had barely begun to gasp and murmur at this suggestion when the CEO shouted “No! That’s not how we do it!”
I began to sweat. “How much time do I have left?” I said. “Five minutes!” was the panicked reply from one of my teammates. Suddenly I remembered the final part of the solution and frantically began to type again. “What happens if he runs out of time?” someone whispered. “Nobody knows… But do you really want to find out?” someone else said. I knew I’d be fired at the very least.
“Done!” I said confidently, and the CEO peered over my shoulder at the screen. After a few seconds, his eyes narrowed. “Ssssyntax error” he hissed. My heart raced as I scanned the code for the error. I found it just in time! A missing semicolon. Everyone sighed in relief and resumed their ping-pong and foosball games. I chuckled to myself and thought “this is why they pay us the big bucks!”
We’re not actually sure what the company’s product is. Whatever it is though, it relies exclusively on things like sorting and searching algorithms, and somehow doesn’t need data storage, infrastructure, networking, apis, or any of that amateur stuff.
Oh hey no worries, just writing down the things I’ve realized for others so they don’t get stuck! Yeah agreed, deep links to other shortcuts should have a way to install those dependencies
Not only is the Actions app required, but you must also download the Toggle Silent Mode shortcut of his
What I really want is a MagSafe wallet that I can leave attached to my phone, and then have pass-through MagSafe charging, by stand or by battery pack
Yeah my dude, but that’s not the part I’m disagreeing with. You made one false claim and one true one, and I’m pointing out that the false one is false.
For those just wanting a quick answer here it’s: Make sure to update TO these versions. If you already are on them, you’re good.
Any Tesla Driver Can Now Join Full Self-Driving Beta Regardless Of Safety Score
Tweet from Elon dated November 24, 2022:
Tesla Full Self-Driving Beta is now available to anyone in North America who requests it from the car screen, assuming you have bought this option.
That’s not true. It’s been open to anyone who requests it for many months
Oh, no worries at all! Your post doesn’t strike me as malicious at all. Just seems like we should be especially concerned with making the OPs feel “stupid” here :)
So it seems like you have 2 main points in your post (1 OP is overly worried, 2 sexual abuse is the real concern), so keeping both but with a more neutral tone:
You should not be worried about saying that a kid looks cute. The real concern that you’re hinting at with behavior toward children is anything that connotes sexual abuse, and the comment “that is a cute kid” is very different from that.
Or you could go for a positive tone:
You have nothing to worry about! Saying a kid looks cute is very different from sexualizing them.

I agree with your point, but the tone of your post strikes me as inappropriate for this particular community
I left after 2 months. Their network has the same coverage as ATT & T-Mobile combined, which is awesome…
BUT
Their use of those towers is deprioritized. Which means all their requests get sent to the bottom of the queue. If there aren’t a lot of people around, no problem! If you live in a metro area, you wait so long to connect that it’s basically like you don’t have service. It worked great on road trips but was unusable for 90% of my use case.
I think a lot of the providers with discount prices do the same. A cursory internet search tells me Mint does too, but that they only use T-Mobile’s towers. So if you switch, your coverage might be better but your data connection times might be worse. Or maybe ATT just sees heavy use in my area, and you’d be fine.
I’m in Atlanta, fwiw. Not exactly inside midtown/downtown, but within the perimeter of 285, so still fairly close to city center.
Do you have a source on SW moving to assigned seats? That’s devastating news to me :(
