Your problem is fixed by not using this or any other app in the first place. Just because you’re annoyed doesn’t mean everyone is nor should it prevent apps from existing.

S76 isn’t going to have every option available to appease everyone’s unique asks; a separate app for other folks can pick up the slack. Otherwise Cosmic will turn into KDE with so many options that it becomes difficult to find or use.

I've been slowly pivoting toward Perplexity.AI as the search engine. It basically does what I do, search + find the resources and summarize it but it is automatic with Perplexity.AI.

I rather pay them 20$ because that is saving me time a lot (and time is money in my case). Kagi's search is okay but I can get nearly the same by using ublocklist on Bing or DDG for my use case.

The game didn’t have DRM, they added it after ten years.

So buying games that have no DRM doesn’t mean it won’t have it later on.

Hopefully, that will not be the case as there is a anti-trust lawsuit possibly coming from DoJ and congress may pass a similar law like DMA. However, the chances are low anything will happen due the upcoming US elections. 😔

Many people follow specific channels and only look at content from them, not random bullshit teenager videos that show up in the random/new/trending pages. If you only look at these contents, then yes, you're going to get those bullshit annoying videos.

It's the same with Reddit, Lemmy, and others, people follow the specific channels they want and avoid the trending/random/new stuff.

For an example, I follow Digital Foundry channel for their detailed analysis/reviews, The SciShow, Sorted Foods, and so on. I click my subscriptions on youtube and it only shows these high quality content for me. Our family spend hours on these contents. They're not available anywhere else.

Don’t know how to feel about this one.

I would prefer Remedy expand their own IP and encourage people into thinking about Alex Casey instead.

They don’t own Max Payne, Rockstar does. They should buy it back instead of reworking this.

Especially since they can use any keyboard, like a mechanical keyboard that will feel much better than the laptops.

Given that an iPad is still a full-screen app OS, it may be easier for them to focus mainly on writing by using a dedicated writing app.

However, like many has said, involve your wife, let them pick.

The more I think about it, you're right. I edited it.

It's not the first time they banned mods like this. Nexus had the same shit storm last year when they banned Spiderman mods that tried to remove pride flags. It's mentioned in the same article here as well.

The only reason it is getting this much outrage is because of the same reason last time, this is the hottest game on the market right now, just like Spiderman was when it came out for the first time on PC.

This mod "impinge" on NexusMod's rights, it's their private service and they have the right to set conditions on it. One of which, mods cannot remove diversity.

It's as simple as that. The people can go elsewhere to find the same mod or share it among themselves.

As for Iran statement, are you serious? There are people getting murdered in USA for even being non-binary. Even "binary" people are getting shot for being inclusive. Like this one https://www.cnn.com/2023/08/21/us/california-pride-flag-shooting/index.html

You are still speaking your opinion on a private site but you don’t get to escape from consequences because others disagree with it.

Nexus Mods is a private site with their own terms of conditions. They are saying no to mods that removes diversity and it is their rights.

People can go elsewhere instead.

 

I don’t see a use case for having communities on the sidebar all the time. It should be hidable sidebar if possible.

I would like to suggest that the interface change to a two-column interface where the first column shows all posts and the second column shows the comments. In other words, tapping on the post opens it up in the column next to it.

(Hideable) Communities | Posts | Comments

I also recommend the bottom toolbar is moved to the sidebar as well; with the username/profile on top and settings on the bottom.

 

On the iPhone, the bottom toolbar has the middle three buttons smashed together with the profile button not working.
