Aww thanks for the comment. I’ll share this with my kid as they’re the one who came up with that one. :D
I’m so looking forward to once Paralives launches (Early Access to be sometime in 2025). Out of all of the competition, that’s the one I’m looking forward to the most. I’ve been a Patreon supporter for years and love seeing their weekly updates.
I’m not interested in giving EA any more money or in their 2 hour long commercial. However, what I AM interested in is all creative talents who may create their own versions of what the Sims movie should be based on Sims 4 is actually like:
Tenet 3: One’s body is inviolable, subject to one’s own will alone.
Tenet 3: One’s body is inviolable, subject to one’s own will alone.
I break the spaghetti into 3 pieces before cooking it as then it’s much easier to deal with. :)
Better to create your own instance then.
It’s about reducing risk not eradicating it and there’s a huge difference in risk in being targeted for legal action due to hosting c/piracy (via caching/mirroring) than from a single piracy post in c/hellokitty.
I appreciate your response and I agree. And likewise nothing wrong with the dev making money and fans supporting that too. (I’ve seen complaints of some people who think all Lemmy apps should be free…and I feel that’s very entitled demanding someone else’s time and effort for free, but they too can just use free apps.)
Cool. It’s great that you did this.
However, my concern is there are no guarantees it wouldn’t change and there would be no recourse for Google to give us a refund since from Google’s standpoint we gave permission for the app to track our data regardless of whether we paid or not.
Just because it was done like this before does not mean it’s a good or transparent practice. I can appreciate though that those who used and loved Sync for Reddit may not care.
I have not used Sync for Reddit however but upon hearing about how much people love it, I wanted to give this app a try. My main point is it’s not transparent unless their is a separate app for the paid version that lays out the permissions.
Based on this source the issue has been fixed but the instance owners need to update to the latest version of Lemmy (v 0.18) which has the fix.
To see what version your Lemmy instance is on, scroll down to the bottom. E.g., I’m on Lemmy.World which is not on v 0.18 yet.
This is a known issue that has been fixed in Lemmy version 0.18. However some instances are still not updated to that newest version. Once your instance owner updates to version 0.18 this should no longer happen to you. Source
Good that you mentioned that. Personally, I think it’s a fair trade off for Logseq’s functionality.
Here are some links that discuss this including some scripts
You know how you can breathe out warm/humid air to help clean eyeglasses? Dragons can do that but it’s much hotter and it’s fire.
I switched from Tiddlywiki to Logseq 3-4 months ago and LOVE Logseq.
Part of the reason I didn’t like Tiddlywiki was it kept everything in a single html file (including embedded images – eww) which made it annoying to move information around. (Note there is an option to run your own server which gives you extra flexibility, but I wasn’t interested in doing that.)
With Logseq, it’s separate markdown file per journal entry / wiki page. I like the addons that are available as well as the queries, e.g., {{query (todo doing)}}
displays my do now tasks on my journal page.

Both of you rock. I love Lemmy. :)
I’ve been using Logseq for 3-4 months now and I love it. It takes a bit of getting used too, e.g., using the journal, but one can also use it as only a wiki if they prefer.
For me, I tend to do a mix of both. For information I want more organized, I’ll update the specific page and otherwise I use the daily journal.
I also really appreciate the queries and addons.

I also don’t know anyone who uses a Brita filter. I prefer tap water and have never had to boil it but I’ve mainly lived in large cities in southern Ontario, Canada.
However for a few months when I lived in a very small town (< 250 people) and the house I rented got water from a well – at that point I drank only bottled water. The well water turned the shower wall orange so I really wasn’t keen to drink it.
Oh my kid doesn’t play – more or less just listens to me vent about EA while occasionally providing advice on how to make my Sims clothing/builds look better. :D
