Makes a lot of sense. I definitely am self-conscious about it and therefore have roadblocks. But my inner child tries to tear them down and I get nice interactions like this :)
Thanks! I do my best!
Thanks for the encouraging words! I'll be sure to keep it up! :)
I admire the effort you have put into it. When I try to ask friends (who speak my target language) to speak in their native language I get frustrated looks. They get tired of the limited conversation we can have.
Sounds like you've got cool pen pals :)!
Ah, release from all!
But at what cost 💔
Damn man... Well drawn, I am now sad for two imaginary dinosaurs who actually liked each other but that damn meteor...
This has got to be the shittiest post.
You better Apology,
Eipä mitään! Ja huomasin nyt saman..
Lemmy / Lemmy Appi tajuaa näköjään tuon olevan fediverse linkki ja ohjaa sinut paikalliseen versioon tuosta linkistä. Sain toimimaan ainoastaan kopioimalla linkin ja laittamalla sen itse selaimeen, en keksi muuta keinoa :( pahoittelut
Exactly! That was my problem as well. When I decided I wanted an ebook reader I started looking into them and felt like diving into a rabbit hole since I always try to be really informed about expensive purchases and there are so many options and features to consider...
I bought Tolino Vision Color (Kobo ereader hardware, but a German market name for it and apparently bit different UI).
Why: In the end I settled with what I could buy locally, is nice to hold while laying in bed, has enough storage space to hold a lot of ebooks (unfortunately I didn't get one with an actual SD card, mine is soldered onto the board), seems to be somewhat "hackable" if need be and has color/a lot of supported file formats (wanted to be able to read comics with color).
Now I know it has some features I consider unnecessary for me (stylus pen support, bluetooth for bluetooth headphones and support for audiobooks, and stupid fixed shop toolbar button that is locked to your vendor, tolino cloud feature, web browser.. etc) and I could have went cheaper and still be happy, but wanting to buy it locally from a store was in the end what limited my selection.
There were other, cheaper Tolinos but this one was not too small or big, and was actually nice to hold due to the grip space on the right. I also waited quite awhile for a sale in my local bookstore to buy it and was able to get 30% off which was close enough to the one-step-cheaper-version.
There is so much more but I think you already know that :D
I've been really happy with mine! But one important note though: I noticed that my version has a "experimental feature": a web browser. Atleast on the stock OS the browser is ... not optimal. I didn't expect much, I was surprised I could browse lemmy and news but lack of adblock makes the experience on any other site terrible and you know e-ink displays are just not great for dynamic content.
I wish you luck on finding an ebook reader for yourself. Like you said, there's too many things to consider..
Pakko myöntää, etten ole varma näkyykö missään suoraan kaikki yhteisön jäsenet/tilaajat. Fedia.io:lla näkyy yhteisön sivulla (jopa sopuli yhteisöjen) "aktiiviset jäsenet ja näköjään ehkä jopa kaikki jäsenet "ihmiset" osiossa.
Olen kännykällä ja kuvakaappausten ottaminen mobiilisivustosta on vähän kömpelöä, mutta laitan ainakin linkin alkuperäiselle yhteisöllesi fedialla josta näkyy tuo "ihmiset" osio:
https://fedia.io/m/maatapitkinmatkustus@feddit.org
Mutta upvote/downvoteista on ainakin varmaa tietoa: lemmy vielä odottelee kunnon moderointityökaluja ja muutenkin lisää toimintoja, mutta tesseract nimisellä selainohjelmistolla voi kirjautua omalle käyttäjälle (riippumatta omasta palvelimesta) ja se tarjoaa moderaattorille oman yhteisön upvote/downvote käyttäjätiedot (kenties myös tilaajat? En ole itse tutkinut tarpeeksi):
Itse käytän Voyager appia, mutta voyagerilla ei valitettavasti ainakaan vielä näe näitä tietoja :(
Itsellä on haaveena, että saataisiin kaikki nuo työkalut kaikkiin appeihin. Auttaa myös moderointia, kun yhteisö kasvaa suureksi.
Sori jos mun selitykset vaan sekoittaa päätä entisestään!
Not only tech, but the mindset aswell. US is still often seen as the "safe" tech provider contrary to evidence (e.g. snowden's whistleblow) and it would be healthy for the masses to be more sceptical.
Yeah talking is hard! I often forget words in the moment that are so basic..
But! We wont give up!
