I've seen how channels and videos have progressed over the years, and it has been amazing to see the progress in general, but the last year or two, I've been running into more and more so unrealistic personal lab scenarios, that... IDK, I have a feeling that most of this stuff is fake... or I really have no idea where they get the funds for the equipment they say they have in the videos.

Like I was watching this video about growing human neurons 🤨... like WTF, is that a thing now? I mean, I go in the store, buy a bunch of neurons and off I am to growing them? What are they, sea monkeys 🤨. Next, the equipment. One light microscopes and another UV based, not the cheapest ones on the market I might add. Those two easily add up to over 150K. I mean... really, where do people even buy those, it's not something an idividual owns.

I've seen this with other channels as well, like the restoration chanels. A big ass 3D printer, an expensive lathe, all sorts of high precision milling equipment, laser cutters... I mean... where do these people get the money to buy these things, these are not cheap, sure, they're not as expensive as a microscope, but they're still pretty darn expensive, we're still talking about at least 10s of thousands of dollars.

Am I missing something? Cuz I watch these clips and I feel more and more like a looser, like why don't I have that, how much money do these people actually make from YT 🤨.

I like that 0.0.41 finally fixed the Home button thing (it brought you back to the beginning of the feed... kinda annoying), but now, I have no way to reset the feed, other than scrolling back to start, lol 😂.

I suggest double tap on Home to reset the feed... or maybe long tap to bring you to the start of the feed (not reset, just bring you to start) and double tap to bring you to top (start) AND reset the feed.

Spell checking just doesn't work... as far as I could tell, in all of the apps for Lemmy (at least the 3 or 4 others that I tried apart from Jerboa) and I have no idea why this is.

I have Gboard set up to underline and suggest corrections, not actually auto-correct, because English is not my natibe language and I use Latin (mostly) for my native language as well, so it doesn't auto-correct the words when I communicate locally.

Tried SwiftKey, but it doesn't have any options regarding spellchecking, it just has auto correct, suggestions and that's it... so it doesn't actually suite my needs.

I mean... I come from the forum scene and they were always called PMs, as in Private Message. What in the hell does DM stand for and when did things change from people calling them PMs to DMs.

It just stopped loading yesterday, period.
