Unfortunately there is only one way to get older generations onto a new app: make it the only place where they can see pictures of their grandkids

(I’m serious tho. When you have kids you can get their grandparents to install ANYTHING if you tell them it has pics of the new baby.)

Been using this for years. Made it very easy to switch from Photoshop. Highly recommend to anyone on the fence

Thank you!!!

Thank you! I’m still figuring out my goals here… Could I ask for your recommendation, given the following?

Primary goal: Access my music library from any of my devices (Android, MacOS, Linux), wherever I am in the world, hopefully without paying anyone (or at least not paying a LOT).

Secondary goal (Not sure if I want to do this yet): Let a group of about 12 friends access my library

These responses are SO helpful and I’m genuinely learning so much here. Thank you everyone!

Yes, the bottleneck isn’t software, it’s hardware. We need phones with unlocked bootloaders

Same. Is there any advantage to DNSNet over TrackerControl?

Nah, I had them buy me a used Mac Mini for $50. But you’re right: if they made me get an iPhone it would have been on them

Wish I could say! But many influential people in tech/media/politics are iMessage diehards, and she was no exception

In my case, I worked for someone who only communicated via iMessage. When I got hired they said, “Either get an iPhone or figure out some magical way to get iMessage on Android.”

It’s really funny to see everyone here fish for reasons this can’t work

Actually, if you read either of the links provided above, you’ll see that that’s exactly what happens

Yes, that’s definitely sensible and doable

They definitely want your photo. They will photograph / scan your face everytime you fly.

This is already the case.

How does one fill them in without it looking like you have a mess of glue on your fingers

A simple layer of superglue.

Sadly I must sign up. I have managed to avoid it for many years, but it’s a requirement for my work.

Links?

No, this is a cam. Someone filmed it in a theater and slapped their own watermark on it.

Shitty cams are fine! It’s the SUPER prominent, constantly-moving watermark that kills me.

Are there any launchers that have Nova’s 2 best features?

1. Swipe-to-open folders (with tap to open the first item in the folder)
2. Set any icon you want as an app icon?

I’ve tried Lawnchair and it was missing these 2 features. I will switch to any launcher that supports these!
