RootBeerGuy, (edited ) to technology in Beeper is now available, no waitlist!

Alright, I got to ask. Having one app for all these services sounds great. I remember some drama around it though, don’t recall the details. So what am I missing, is this actually good news?

Its not open source but neither are most of the apps it connects to.

Edit: Found a comment in another thread that sums up valid concerns feddit.nl/comment/8763492

So I haven’t compared any and I am not sure if you are up to that but there are several fan-made upscales available online for all of DS9, as long as you are willing to sail the high seas.

“You want a finger? I can get you a finger, believe me. There are ways, Dude. You don’t wanna know about it, believe me. I’ll get you a finger by this afternoon–with nail polish. These fucking amateurs.”

I feel like Gul Dukat should be Ralph, since he just keeps coming back no matter how often they throw him out. Or maybe he should be Barney.

Its a news site but the only place you can find the date of the article is in the URL. Sometimes I am baffled by the weird design decisions people are making.

You posted that last week. Not really necessary to post it again unless you had a major update going, which I cannot tell from this post.

RootBeerGuy, to foss in What non-FOSS software have you been unable to quit?
@RootBeerGuy@discuss.tchncs.de avatar

Its not a notification like that. I open the site in the mobile browser, not a PWA in case you are thinking that.

There is a small “pop-up” at the bottom then that asks you to use their app instead. But its not even layering over the site so you could just leave it be.

Uh no. I have been using it for navigation for the past 5 years, probably even longer. It is hit and miss in some areas but it works OK.

I would never again install a big social media app on my phone. I am actually just using LinkedIn via a browser shortcut, they keep bugging me about installing the app but that’s definitely not going to happen.
