Why is gfycat shutting down?

That thread has some very interesting insight. Thanks for posting!

I've tried Bing, but the search result page is so full of videos and other media elements that it makes it hard for me to go through the results quickly. The DDG interface is less cluttered and it supposedly shows the same results as Bing, but I find it's much slower to load and perform searches.

What do you use instead?

[–] TurboRotary@kbin.social 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Same. I've installed a few apps to keep an eye on their development, but web is still my favourite for now. Some of the apps have gestures and easily collapsible threads, but UIs aren't completely polished yet.

I find it hard to take a product seriously when it has "cute" in the first sentence in its description...

Thanks for taking the time to write this. I'd seen Ground News before, but I didn't think it was anything more than all the other news aggregators. Your description, however, has made me really interested!

Can you comment on the benefits of subscribing at the various levels versus the free tier?

Not claiming my method is better than yours!

I didn't think you did :)

I'm happy to explore variations in the never-ending pursuit of perfect rice ;)

Is federation not enabled? I can see the community/magazine on their Lemmy instance, but not through kbin.

Exactly. On Reddit, most of the time there was not point commenting, because of the sheer size of the audience. Here, I can actually contribute!

Thanks for the reply. I'll try your method soon!

The reason I cover mine from the beginning is mostly to reduce the time it takes to come to a boil, especially when I use the small rings on an electric stove. I don't know if that makes a difference in the end result.

Does the rice not get overcooked if you leave it in for 35 min + boiling time?
