“only one person per file”

so we’ve reverted back to the rcs/cvs days?

i’ve had the testflight build since early on, but haven’t paid much attention to this app because i can’t get the post-list ui to look the way i prefer in other apps. 😅

my community doesn’t need much moderation either, which means if i don’t check the website often enough i’ll completely miss a few reports because there haven’t been any in a month and my instance admin has to be annoyed by them.

oh i didn’t think to look in the communities list, sorry. my mod queue is empty currently, how does the app show you there’s an unhandled report? I’d kind of expect them to show up in inbox tab, but it seems i have to go through the posts tab -> community list -> mod zone dance to get to them? is there a notification count on the posts tab too for reports to hint to me that there’s something there?

Also it might be nice to mention mod tools in the app description because most lemmy apps are still lacking them.

“full-featured” -> no mod tools

tired of this dance with lemmy apps

That one is a rectangle inside a rectangle. The one in the OP looks like a capsule shape inside a rectangle, more like a usbc connector, so i assumed it was an intentional add by the the person who made the thing as another layer on top of the joke.

But yeah it could also be just someone trying to be clever while whining about usbc not being adopted by iphones sooner, and the icon is off because it’s designed to be made with 3d printer without a high enough level of precision

look at the vga connector again. it has a little icon on it that looks like a usbc slot

Did you miss the words “dark pattern”? it is a term for when companies misuse/abuse UX principles to trick people into acting against their own best interests. In this case, the bold “click me” looking button in the screenshots means “yes daddy, spank me and then sell my data to your friends”, which is the option that most people who see that box won’t want to click.

Unfortunately, a large swath of the general population are trained in their brains to “click ok to make it go away”. These UX decisions take advantage of those people.

Assumedly, the grayed out box will also not dismiss the banner, but instead lead to a more complicated experience where you then are forced to drill down into complicated options to decide which of the cookies to set, which will be confusing if you didn’t open the link at top in a new tab to cross reference which of the 27 ~~data brokers~~ “Technology Partners” to decide which.

It’s not UX, it’s abusive UI and the very definition of malicious compliance to EU regulations.

This was one of my favorite subreddits, and I want to see it survive on lemmy.

Community for posting & making fun of memes/boomer-comics made by cishet people about how it's awful to be in relationship, or have children, or whatever else, also putting inappropriate clothing on children.

Post your "lol ball & chain" "my home boss" "haha i murdered my partner lol because im so frustrated over dishes lmao" memes here, as well as your garden-variety "toddler wearing a 'mothers, hide your daughters' onesie" or "" cishet behavior.
