I get your point and I agree to an extend. However I disagree with any kind of tracking or analysis of user data. I'd rather pay money for software - no subscription. I'm ok paying for updates or upgrades now and then.

I'm also happy to donate (and did) but I'm also mad and paranoid enough to doubt such button actually turns this feature off.

True. Unfortunately I'm paranoid enough to have to create network captures until I believe it's actually off. And even then... I'm unable to prove it doesnt send off a package of data after a certain amount of time.

I’d want to love it…

but as ridiculous as it sounds, for something like this to be really useful to me I unfortunately need a mobile app. a web-app seems hard to realize for a real e2e encryption & sync - for my scenario :(

I’m aware how much effort this is already… it looks good but as much as I want to use it, I can’t due to my workflow requiring a mobile device app (iOS in my case)

but it does look really promising!

Reddit will never be normal again after this. Someone else said it recently - It doesn't matter if only 5% (or less) of the user base leave because this 5% will most likely be the most passionate and active users actively creating content that is not advertisement.
In the long run; the content quality will decline because of that.

In addition, these statistics likely do not distinguish what is bot traffic that are scraping the site vs users. The bots will keep scraping.

It might be cheap but it’s also very reliable, intuitive, familiar and all that in even weird conditions… which millions of controllers prove in any gamers household every day. In addition it’s used by military forces all around the world - including bomb squads because it works (mostly its the xbox 360 as far ad know)

the problem is elsewhere - i’m almost certain of it.

Best I can do is spent some of the claps I have left from the generous clapping during covid.

Na thanks. I’ll never use windows ever again.

Good question, I'd love to know myself.

Most chatrooms I see (regardless with protocol or platform) are idled to death by everyone; regardless how small or big the room is - there's just not much going on. And starting a conversation is often difficult

I guess people are burned out with and by various chats. Work-chat, Kids, Family-chat, School-parents-group-chat ...

In some places there is a lot of hate towards cyclists, so it's very possible. But it could also be smashed car windows. (Although I believe that should be "security glass" and should not be extremely sharp... I might be wrong)

Unfortunately though, there are many examples I've seen and lived through myself. Glass, nails, metal wires across the bike path ... I've seen it all.

I used to live in Cork (Ireland) and the hostility from drivers towards cyclists is next to deadly. I've been purposefully cut off many times in that city. And on Friday morning, after a so called "students night" the streets are littered with broken glass. Fun times.

It's easy. Stop parking and "unloading" on the fucking bike path. Getting doored is also a messed up encounter... Not recommendet.

Since none of this is going to change ... self inflicted wound.
