It makes a lot more sense when you consider the history of it all, but the admins have made this a general purpose instance it really has little to do with it anymore.
Lmao actually I was just in the App Store checking my updates and Firefox has an update and the notes say "You can now add website shortcuts to the phone Home Screen"
I'm not sure, but since Apple doesn't allow third party browsers (you can download Chrome, but it still uses Safari's engine for example) it really doesn't matter.
Even if you could do it on another browser it wouldn't change anything. You'll just get an icon that launches a website with no browser UI. Since all browser apps use the Safari backend, it's a moot point.
The devs have said they'd like to make this happen more automatically, but until then this is a great tip!
I feel like mega-instances could kinda do that. Not to the same extent. But imgaine if there's three or so servers with 90% of the users, and they decide to start de-federating from everyone else. Or selectively doing so.
I think you mean "generalization".
Golly gee don'cha speak 'Murican? :P
Nice cat!
I believe the main developer has agreed that they need to work on this, so hopefully it will happen soon!
Yeah, because I'm a nerd and already have a personal server :P
(and like making things needlessly complicated apparently)
Does any american ex-redditor know the name of a single european politician besides Merkel?
Well of course I do! Macron, .... uh
Lemmy doesn't need infinite growth and ever more value extraction from its users as a traditional company would, but a sizable userbase is definitely a good thing. There's a certain critical mass that any social site needs.
