3·23 days agoIs there an inbox wrapper I can use for gmail on android?
I know I know just switch to proton or whatever. I have, but sometimes I still get stuff from things I’ve connected to gmail that i I’ve forgotten about.
The gmail app on android is very ad heavy.
Just looking to access my gmail from a cleaner app.

Technology@lemmy.world•Fairphone unveils Fairbuds 2 with replaceable battery, Sony LDAC and ANCEnglish
41·29 days agoIs like to note that while the battery is replaceable and looks like a common battery, it’s actually priority. So if they stop making the battery, it’s over. I haven’t needed it yet but it irks me.

696·4 months agoI hate the multi desktop stuff.
Drag a window to top of screen and it doesn’t snap full screen fast enough or consistantly.
Doesn’t like to display 1 window across 2 screens.
Sometimes a window will shoot off to the side past the visible desktop for god knows what reason.
You can’t nativly set up the mouse scroll to work in reverse direction to the touch pad.
I’m still not sure how to uninstall things.
When my headphone cable is plugged in and I turn on the Mac it insists to make the boot sound though the speakers as an advertizment to the world that there is a Mac around.
If I click x on a browser or app, it doesnt actually shut the program, it just minimizes it.
I can’t easily see the size of hard drives/folders and how much space is left available.
Files are just scattered willy nilly in a folder instead of snapped to a grid unless I set that folders defaults…per folder?! Instead of across the whole OS
They are my personal top of mind gripes.

Games@sh.itjust.works•The Sad Unusability of Video Game ReviewsEnglish
52·5 months agoI feel like game reviews kinda died off with ‘total biscuit’ RIP. Was was good about his reviews is you could understand his personal tastes which may not have been the same as yours but you could still vibe out if it was good or not. Like he might forinstance give a average for a bolmer shooter because it wasn’t his vibe. But you’d know ‘oh if he’s giving it an average’ that’s actually pretty good considering. But with IGN etc, you get different people reviewing stuff and then everything becomes arbitrary.

Technology@lemmy.world•Copyright Industry Continues Its Efforts To Ban VPNsEnglish
11·8 months agoYeah it’s outdated. But should the worldwide license cost the same as the licence just for lithuania? What if you were a small upstart just trying to do something online for your local community? Or a school hosting licenced media for study purposes.
While you are right there are theoretically no borders on the internet. They can be built, Netflix US or Netflix AUS for instance are geo blocking so they can pay smaller licences. And that is their right just as much as it is for a school which is fenced with a .edu login. At least in copyright laws current iteration. Who should be responsible for an outside actor getting access?
Fun to think about.

1·8 months agoNa coz you own the media outright. But streaming a show from a country on Netflix that you are not in, is against the licences terms. I don’t think you would be liable. Its more a Netflix problem providing media to someone who theyre not licenced to share it with.
Edit: I’m thinking offline physical copys not online serviced games.

5·8 months agoLicences for media are country specific. So vpns allow you to circumvent that. I don’t beleive it’s piracy. But it’s…something.
