Same problem here. Using stock android.

An ashtray!

They pulled the plug on my grandfathered price, I cut the cord.

If there isn’t, we better start one!

Death solves all problems…

Thank you for saying it. I’m browsing c/memes for a laugh, not whatever this is.

The article didn’t mention if any ransom was paid to the attackers or whether other casinos saw an increase in their revenues.

I wonder how much money gamblers saved as a result of the downtime.

Amen to degoogling! I think the broad enshittification driven by big tech and their monopolistic behavior actively invites their own demise, just as they disrupted those that came before. I’m definitely an optimist, hopefully not naive. Also we should take things into our own hands. Don’t like it? Build it better!

To add to your list: Peertube: federated platform that could compete with YouTube if it wasn’t for network effects. Keepass & SyncThing: password manager + file synchronization to keep passwords across all your devices

I wonder why Windows share dips while “unknown” surges. It seems to reverse afterwards.

Is Reddit the new r word?

Please accept my condolences.

All of the above makes sense. “Implemented by dummies” really sums it up nicely. My work laptop loogs me out 2-3 times a day and that checkbox seems to have no effect at all.

Thank you for your responses. It really makes me think about the meaning of portability:

Are you moving your identity? (e.g. implementing something like instance-agnostic user PGP keys)

Your data? The posts and comments you’ve contributed, which would only make sense with the context of the entire thread.

How would the contents of entire communities be migrated? I presume that’s where the valuable content is for potential buyers either to drive ad traffic or train models.

I hope I’m wrong, but… I think network effects could lead to a single instance becoming dominant and therefore vulnerable to such a takeover/sellout. I’m less sure about this, but perhaps non-technical users don’t understand the concept of federated instances and flock to a single one. Perhaps there are other tangible benefits of everyone being on a single instance. Just because the protocol allows for decentralization, doesn’t mean it will naturally happen. E.g. How many email users are on Microsoft exchange/outlook, Gmail, and Yahoo?

I love the concept of your own data being portable, but am afraid there might be other factors that somehow naturally lead to centralization. Please change my mind!
