Yep, as above - it's a web app rather than a play store app. See and install it here: https://wefwef.app

WefWef is super impressive for a PWA, and development is very rapid. It's a good meanwhile solution while I wait for Boost :)

"Undecided" here meaning 'up in the air until the Activision acquisition is done and dusted, and all those difficult questions about platform exclusives have gone away.' No way is this coming to Playstation sadly.

- that's amazing. Thank you! 2) I'm using Wefwef and PMs seem to be a bit broken and I couldn't see what I was typing, so please excuse my nonsensical garbled attempts at replying there 😁

That'd be brilliant, thanks!

If you actually find a working link do share!

Cheers! I should have qualified an active torrent, but that's more than I've ever seen - I'll give them a go...
EDIT: can't seem to get to any actual magnet links - everything I click just seems to throw up an ad...

Cottage Country (2013). Meant to be similar to Tucker and Dale Vs Evil and I just can't find a torrent anywhere!

When worrying about things, assess them using the rule of fives - i.e. Will this still matter in:
- Five minutes
- Five hours
- Five days
- Five weeks
- Five months
- Five years
Gauge the right level of temporal impact and adjust your level of concern accordingly. Few things are as bad as they first seem once you've properly assessed them using this rule of thumb 🙂

The fact you've made it here onto the fediverse suggests you're pretty tech savvy. Have you considered offering tech support services locally? There's probably loads of older folk around who would appreciate someone who can sort out their laptop, set up their printer etc.
You could also try a specific subset of this if you wanted to optimise for reputation and cash - e.g. Get good at setting up mesh wifi systems like Amazon Eero and then sell your services locally as an installer?

Not out yet, but the (IMO) unquestionably best Reddit app, Boost, is currently being ported to Lemmy - follow here for updates: https://lemmy.world/c/boostforlemmy

Can't wait to try this out and have a reason to launch the rocket once more 🙂

Isn't it though? There's a lot less folk here so far but I am really loving the quality of conversation and feeling like I'm not a product to be sold.

There are dozens of us! Dozens!

I had not considered the idea of subbing to multiple same-name communities across servers and using the multi-reddit model to pull them into a single feed, but that actually makes all the sense in the world - e.g. would enable folk who want the 'edgier' content of a topic to sub to an instance stored on a server which allowed that material as well as a more mainstream one and then combine them into one seamless view.
I like this fediverse stuff!
Pyrrhichios 1y ago • 100%
Yep, I would agree on both counts - default behaviour should be people see servers in some respect, and those who are annoyed enough by it (like me) will go looking for the option :)
Pyrrhichios 1y ago • 100%
Oh yeah, it should definitely be optional. Fully appreciate that there will be folk who really care about the federated dimension to all of this.

This doesn't meet your platform requirements, but for non-Appley types reading - Feeder:

Very minimal (in a good way) and clean RSS reader that can sync across Android devices. I think if it had a Web version it'd be perfect.

Definitely! I'm using Wefwef for the time being app-wise and I hadn't even noticed this because I think it actually does hide the server name on user accounts - I just see your name right now. Cleaner for sure!
Hi all, Guess it's never too early to start thinking about features we'd like to see in Boost for Lemmy! I was scrolling down my list of subbed communities just now and reflecting that the "@(server)" part of the community names makes it harder to quickly read them (for me at least). I know that - this being the fediverse - you might sub to two communities with the same name but on different servers (eg. Football@[server]) but I would imagine that the majority of users will just pick one and on the day to day they won't be terribly concerned where exactly that community is being hosted. I think it'd be neat if you could select to hide the server part of the community name in Boost's list, or at least make it less prominent in the name visually (e.g. - the actual name part in a highlight colour, the server part in a grey/other colour that blends in against the backdrop). Thanks 🙂
