Fingerprint sensor on the back of the phone. So you'd pick it up and your finger would naturally fall on the sensor, so that by the time you look at the screen, it's unlocked.

Kids misbehaving in school. "Kids are so rude these days." "Young people don't show respect anymore."

I'm pretty sure that every generation had its bad eggs in the classroom and nothing has changed.

I'm not sure if paying for your groceries makes you entitled.

This rebrand is so dumb in so many ways.

I like the idea behind the community but it is a terrible name. Without reading an explanation, most people would assume it was some toxic, misogynistic group. I only know what it refers to because I bothered reading some of the comments here.

I'm sure there are much better names, such as Positive Masculinity for example.

If I go to somecommunity@lemmy.world while I am logged in to my lemm.ee account and tap the share icon, it creates a link to somecommunity@lemm.ee when it should be @lemmy.world.

The Prestige is one of the best movies I've ever seen.

I've written a simple lemmy bot that can post on a daily basis. I know there's not much activity on this community, but I thought I could start scheduling Monday Footy Chat, Tuesday Footy Chat, etc.

Thoughts?

If I use pythorhead to log in to one lemmy instance, can I still post to a community on a different instance? I tried using discover_community to search for the community (with @community@instance) but that didn't work.

Is this possible, or can I only post to communities on the instance I am logged in on via the script?

In reddit apps, whenever you create a new post based on a URL, the post title gets suggested from the link title. Can we get this feature in Liftoff?

I'm a high school teacher and I recently was discussing this. Protip: don't talk to 14 year olds about how if something is in between hard and soft, it's firm. 🙄

One of the many reasons I will only ever buy Pixel phones. No bloatware.

Currently I have to use lemmy in my browser to access mod tools. Will these be brought to Liftoff?

I trialled 5 different lemmy apps for Android and IMO Liftoff was the standout best. Looks good, runs smooth and the dev is quick to fix bugs and issue updates.

If I go directly to lemm.ee in the browser (Chrome), log in, and change the view to Subscribed, I often see posts from communities I am not subscribed to.

Yeah it's a bit of a weird situation, isn't it? Same names but different communities. I actually think this is a bit of a barrier to new users. It's not an intuitive situation and doesn't immediately make sense. I think it adds to the "this is all too confusing" problem that is inherent in the fediverse.

So we have separate Android communities running on separate instances. I can't see how this community splintering can be a good thing.

I read that Elon is moving Twitter from Google Cloud over to Oracle Cloud with his buddy Larry Ellison. The rate limiting may be due to this migration.
