In Germany too and I always found them strange. At least at our closest supermarket they recently got phased out and replaced with cashless self checkouts.

Same in Germany. Lots of people avoid digital transactions and almost exclusively pay in cash. It’s always weird for me to see huge lines at the cashier while the self checkout is completely empty.

Kinda what GDPR tried and now the internet is almost unusable because greedy companies put cookie banners on every fucking site

In the fediverse, the messy interoperability really bothers me. Sure I can follow Pixelfed users on Mastodon but I can only see the first 4 pictures if they post multiple. I can also follow Mastodon users on Pixelfed but I will only see their posts containing images.

This cross follow functionality should simply not exist unless it’s good (like between lemmy, mbin and Piefed) as it will frustrate users and cause them to leave the platforms.

Seems like people disregard the web part of the question and just suggest random apps. The only web interface in here so far is voyager which I would also recommend.

Touch? Mac? Airpods? What the fuck are you doing? You aren’t doing real business tasks if you’re using an iPad.

I’m using it on the phone sometimes to reply to people which I don’t think is a weird use case. The AirPods issue happens on macOS and I’m not sure if you’re just ignorant but lots of businesses operate on macOS, especially in my industry (ui design, frontend web dev) it’s unusual to even see Windows.

Seriously, teams is one of the worst apps I have to use on a regular basis. It’s insanely buggy, especially if you are a freelancer working in multiple teams.

• parts of the app don’t load correctly
• parts of the app don‘t support touch very well
• you get useless notifications, i.e. for a thread you have open or an action you caused yourself but completely miss others
• the UI has SO MANY flaws like giving people different colored placeholder avatars in different parts of the app which made me assign tasks to the wrong person a few times
• it needs its own audio driver on macOS which is probably invasive and does a shit job with airpods

There’s probably more I can’t think of right now but teams actively kills my productivity and I dread having to open it. I don’t understand how businesses can rely on this so heavily and I‘m wondering how incredibly incompetent the team developing it at Microsoft can be.

I came from Nextnews which was great (but works only with nextcloud)

I made that app! Glad you liked it and I wish I had more time for it.

Account is new and vaguely crypto related. I‘d say yes.

It’s a way for apps to interact with reddit. Reddit shut down the API for third party clients so that you’re forced to use their crappy official app instead of much nicer alternatives.

I used a different app to access Reddit and hence couldn’t use it anymore. The official app was a huge downgrade to what I was using before and full of ads. So I - like many others - just left Reddit for good.

And not just that, the different mineral compositions give it a different flavor too. Sometimes when traveling here in Germany, I‘m filling my water bottle with regional tap water and often I‘m glad how good the tap water at home tastes compared to what you can get in other regions.

I‘m not boycotting US media since I‘m way too much of a fan of some TV shows or movies they make. That said, I made sure not to pay any money for it which I originally started doing when streaming first enshittified.

If I ever feel they’re altering the content as to avoid upsetting the administration, I might move away from US media.

If this ever gets triggered, the world economy is fucked for years or even decades to come.

It raised increased by 22.4% in relation to its previous share.

For an app that made you 300$ / month to begin with

And if you offer Premium, they’ll drown you in work while your Basic colleagues will just push off any responsibility so that it will eventually end up on your desk anyway. Not worth it.

I mean that‘s always the issue with this dumb auto swear / dirty word detection. It is simply not context aware.

Recently in a game of Hell Let Loose, someone wrote in chat that he needs hearing aids while playing and the game automatically censored „aids“ because of „get aids!“ and whatever shit someone might say in a shooter.

This auto-censoring is particularly outrageous in a shooter where you can literally see people being torn to shreds by explosions.

A Nintendo Switch. The perspective makes it look a bit squished.

Toddler destroys someone’s sand castle because you didn’t buy him the ice cream he wanted.

I agree that they shouldn’t have picked Windows but it makes sense to keep everyone on the same software stack to avoid wasting time helping people install basic stuff that might or might not run on their systems
