At one hand, I like lemmy for being smaller and cozier, but on the other, the possibility of reddit becoming unprofitable due to lost users is so awesome to be missed.

COME ON REDDITORS, JOIN LEMMY AND LET REDDIT ROT!

What about webview-based browsers in android phones?

Until they make advertisements aimed specifically on autistic people...

Is there a remindme bot on lemmy?

[-] eumesmo@lemmings.world 38 points 1 year ago

I just searched for that lib, in an attempt to help you with the supposed problem. I won't deny, you got me there.

I guess you're thinking about UAD (universal android debloat) tool. It has a nice gui, but you need adb enabled for it to work.

Hey, don't be hard on yourself like that. Sometimes things happen or don't happen, and we don't have a clue why. Time can pass so quickly and we can lose ourselves so easily.

But that doesn't diminish you in any way. I know what I'm talking about. I lost the best years of my life, and no one will ever understand or have some sympathy for it. People are too quickly to judge or to give weird "advices" that feel much more like a kick than anything else. Our lives are so complex and can't be reduced to simple encouragement words.

I'd advise you to explore yourself a bit more. Perhaps you're restraining yourself somehow, perhaps you had a too restrictive environment, perhaps you have some undiagnosed condition (that was my case), perhaps something else. Sometimes we try to live life forcing ourselves to be what others expect of us, and we will fail so miserably, but we can live as who we are, and things start to improve progressively.

I hope I didn't confuse you even more.

Don't fall for the "it's already bad, so it doesn't matter" way of thinking. That's how companies nowadays prevent us from fighting back for our rights.

Me neither. I wonder if that's even true, because i see a lot of people changing tastes with age.

Can't agree more. And the issues go beyond data harvesting. For example, recently, I lost my phone and carried on for a while without it, only to realize we're building a society in which we are slowly losing our citizenship rights if we don't have a phone. I found myself locked out from many things, and having to go so many alternate routes, that I had to get a new phone quickly.

It all happened so subtly, and I saw it happening, but still, it's hard to believe we came to this point without the people manifesting some sort of opposition. I get even more worried about the developing countries, where not everyone can properly afford a phone.
