That's called OAuth2, it's a security feature. By logging into the official UI and that UI returning a login token, potentially malicious mobile apps are prevented from stealing your login credentials. For Lemmy the majority if not all of the current mobile clients are safe, but if a malicious one sprouts up it could use native login to steal your credentials and store them on a malicious server.
I view it as a benefit, and I'm willing to make concessions on salary for additional or better benefits. Arguably you could have both, but I think unionization is required for that and I'm in a low unionization industry.
Sync's a really smooth experience, I'm enjoying it. Hopefully moderator tools will be back soon, that's one of the biggest weaknesses of the Lemmy app space right now.
Do they have any new air exhibits?
Indeed. As long as you have a DNS name available it's pretty easy to roll an instance, lemmy-ansible will do the work for you.
That's good to hear, that shows the Sync dev was most likely being honest when he said buying the paid version of the app would completely disable the ad library.
I agree, humor is a valid coping mechanism. It's not like a serious conversation on Lemmy is going to solve world hunger, your joke was fine in my opinion.
I suppose flying a drone in a video game isn't that much different than flying one in real life, so this makes sense.

You and I have the exact same ice cream preferences.
That's true, the problem is just it's really hard to have properly localized representation on a national level when your nation has millions of people. U.S. Representatives oversee hundreds of thousands of people and many senators serve millions, there's no way for them to get to know their constituents.
Beyond the irony of the name, this is genuinely an excellent idea and I wish you luck selling them! Are you considering making these for any other recipes?
Thee developers really crunched over July. It went from a niche beta platform to fully featured third-party apps and a ton of platform optimizations in a month, which is really impressive.
They probably paid for the title but the article isn't actually that peachy, I'd say its assessment is accurate. The Reddit sub protest is over, and technically spez got his way, but the platform has been damaged and may recover or may begin to die out and be replaced.
When a 2-day task turns into a 2-week task 🙃
They are attracted to power. If a democrat managed to seize the throne from the Trump royal family, then that democrat is powerful and thus now respectable, as long as they maintain the monarchy.
Indeed. All the claims about Russian interference were that they used propaganda to push people to vote for Trump, not that the election itself was fraudulent. It's ridiculous to compare "Hostile foreign actors are manipulating people" with "The outgoing president actually won the election and thus should remain in office despite all the evidence to the contrary."
Strong disagree. I believe in proportional representation, if Democrats get 50% of the votes for a given legislature, they get 50% of the seats, and vice-versa for the Republicans. Neighbors often have different interests and I believe that in a democracy decisions should be made by the majority.
I hadn't heard of it either, this is super useful! It's funny the things you'll find just around the place on Lemmy.
Interesting. Is retirement just a sabbatical until death?
