Incorrect.
Stalin and Lenin never kissed at the Enchantment Under the Sea Dance, so Yezhov was erased from time.

It’s so bad now that the default client is king and now that a lot of the good super users bailed.
The content and the algo that sorts it is terrible.

- Comment on T-Mobile secretly records iPhone screens and claims it's being helpful. 1 week ago:
Depends on the tool. A lot of them are only logging interactions. They then “play” those interactions over a cached version of the experience to show you a “recording.”
- Comment on T-Mobile secretly records iPhone screens and claims it's being helpful. 1 week ago:
Not the tools I’ve used. A lot of them aren’t even actually recording video. They’re recording the user interactions in-app, then playing those back on a cached version of the experience that is hosted with the session recording company.

The article was updated. That may have been the original title since this was first discovered on an iPhone.
Buy yeah, OP should update this headline. Especially since it probably hits a lot more Lemmy users than originally reported.

It’s also android phones. All of the shots in the article are of android phones.

This is likely just recording sessions of the carrier’s app, not everything on your phone. Session recording for CS and UX is pretty common these days. It can be impossible to identify a problem unless you actually see what is happening in the app.
That said, you have to ask for consent for this shit. A lot of companies don’t alert customers when they release a new tool that requires privacy consent.

Rose just bought the name back. It’s relaunching soon.

Apollo was mostly a one man band, although I think Christian occasionally had someone helping out with services. The client side was basically all him.
And yeah, Christian posted all of Spez’s comms and showed that Spez was lying to the community.

Curiosity and nostalgia will definitely get me to check it out. I enjoyed digg before the v4 explosion that drove everyone to reddit.
- Comment on Digg founder Kevin Rose offers to buy Pocket from Mozilla 1 week ago:
And the Apollo developer is apparently consulting on the mobile experience in one last “fuck you” to Reddit.

Fair point
- Comment on Lemmy.one will be shutting down 3 weeks ago:
Not surprised. Moderation tools have needed to be the top priority for a long time, and most of lemmy’s users don’t know how janky it is behind the scenes.

This seems like a tough case to win in court. Patents usually don’t hold up when you’re dealing with obvious stuff.
And in this case, they’d be arguing about an extra 8px of border radius and a 8px semi circle.
- Comment on Android updates: thanks I hate it. 3 weeks ago:
It does not. Apple’s is a little battery. This looks more like a notification badge. Corner radius is too big, and it needs a nipple.
- Comment on Android updates: thanks I hate it. 3 weeks ago:
Crazy that they didn’t actually leverage the beta for changing the UX too. A good beta isn’t just to catch bugs, it’s also to catch user experience problems.
- Comment on Android updates: thanks I hate it. 3 weeks ago:
They should’ve just copied iOS and made it look like a little battery.
- Comment on Skype was shut down for good today 4 weeks ago:
Yeah, right before the pandemic it was becoming clear that Skype was in Keep The Lights On mode, and MS wanted to funnel all of those users into Teams. But Teams also sucked.
It’s a lot better than it used to be, but it still takes MS an ungodly amount of time to build basic features that have been in Slack / Zoom for a decade… and MS is one of the biggest companies in the world.
- Comment on Skype was shut down for good today 4 weeks ago:
IMHO, the pandemic just allowed everyone to see how much better of an experience Zoom had over Skype.
I worked in an office where half of corporate used Skype, and the cooler sub-brands used Zoom. No one in the main corporate office was happy about using Skype. Microsoft had been neglecting it for quite some time.
