I'm in Georgia and if you ask for tea you usually get asked "sweet or unsweet".

I read that title as "Is there a FOSS alternative to apps like TikTok?"

Turns out the expensive space age glass stuff breaks super easy.

Sounds like you are really rough on your phone. The point of glass screen protectors is that it cracks instead of your phone's screen. The cheap plastic film isn't made to do that, just keep the glass from getting scratched.

BookWyrm is the federated alternative to GoodReads.

I sure hope so. I just want to be able to prove to my wife she said that hamburgers were fine for dinner when she argues she never said that.

Getting some real Black Mirror vibes from this story.

That was the whole point. They even made the actors stay out of public view for a year, handing out flyers at Sundance that they were "missing, presumed dead". There were fake police interviews on the film's website and everything. This was the first time anything like this had been done so I can imagine people were really invested in this movie and thought it was real.

Elon: "These geniuses will be of great use elsewhere"

The geniuses are hired by Meta to build a Twitter clone.

Elon: "Not like that!"

Same with me. I've removed all the apps from my phone and I've moved to Lemmy for all my doom scrolling.

Swipe controls are a major plus for me, and the app keeping my place when I go back to my feed instead of just starting at the top.
