- Comment on Anyone else get the thing where images and post titles become confused? It can often be humourous. 3 weeks ago:
I’m not a recycling list expert, but I think the more keys you use the less react is able to reuse components in the list. So this is one area where keys are actually worse. You may be able to use them only on the image part of the post, but packages like expo-image have a recyclingKey prop you are supposed to use instead. But I found expo image to not work very well so 🤷
But I think think the app we were referring to isn’t react native? Idk how native recycling lists work tbh so maybe you’re right about the key thing.
- Comment on Anyone else get the thing where images and post titles become confused? It can often be humourous. 3 weeks ago:
100% guessing here, but native apps sometimes use recycling virtualized lists. That means as you scroll the list will reuse the container that renders the post title and image. Often the image is still being fetched but you already know the title. So as you scroll, it reuses a post you previously saw, instantly swaps in the new title, but the new image is still landing so an image from a previously post in the list is displayed.
Idk if that made any sense at all, but keep an eye out if the title is new but the image was previously seen.
- Comment on Why I recommend against Brave. 4 weeks ago:
I use Apple products which are definitely more closed source. I would prefer open source but there are unfortunately more variables in play then just “is it open source”.
- Comment on Why I recommend against Brave. 4 weeks ago:
I’m using brave lol. As a web developer I really need to test the work I do on a chromium based browser. Brave seems to be the best chromium based browser that still supposed ad blocking after the whole manifest v3 thing.
So let me pose this question to you. As someone that needs to use Chromium for work, what’s the best Chromium based browser that still supposed as blocking?
I get that Firefox is better. Heck Tor is even better. But realistically what is something I can actually use to get real work done?

The TVs aren’t a bad value. Gotta get back the the jailbreaking days. If someone released a custom firmware for my Roku tv that made it dumb I wouldn’t use it.

They have back doors to prevent backdoors? Is it possible they are just too nearsighted to realize any backdoor could be exploited by anyone?
- Comment on My attempt at explaining the fediverse in a way that is more fun and engaging 3 months ago:
After all the other comments I was thinking randomly auto select one of the instances that meets certain criteria, but you make a good argument. Giving people choice over their server was what I was initially thinking when I came up with this planet analogy.
- Comment on My attempt at explaining the fediverse in a way that is more fun and engaging 3 months ago:
That’s what I was thinking! But I’m not sure that is better than just randomizing the default instance. Randomizing would have almost the same effect with much less user friction.

I’m so dumb. That literally solves so many problems. I just have to confirm that works with the login endpoint.
- Comment on My attempt at explaining the fediverse in a way that is more fun and engaging 3 months ago:
I’ll look into it, thanks! Maybe I’ll run it by a non technical friend and see if they get it.
- Comment on My attempt at explaining the fediverse in a way that is more fun and engaging 3 months ago:
What I could do is pick an instance at random and see if I can write that instance to app storage that persists on reinstall. That way, they don’t lose their account by not remembering what instance. That doesn’t solve the web.
The issue is password managers save username and password, but I need to save instance as a 3rd value. I wonder if I can prepend the instance to the front of their username in a way that the password manager picks it up, then slice it off later when they log in. But that’s kinda hacky.
- Comment on My attempt at explaining the fediverse in a way that is more fun and engaging 3 months ago:
Ooo yes! But I would like keep it much shorter.
- Comment on My attempt at explaining the fediverse in a way that is more fun and engaging 3 months ago:
Remember this is an onboarding flow for an app. It has to capture the user and explain things well without losing their attention.
What I want to avoid is “hey, select an instance from this menu”. “Wtf is an instance?”
Voyager gets around this by defaulting to an instance (lemmy.ee I think) before you log in, but my plan was to have them select when they launch the app for the first time.
