There's the middle ground where I can freely browse the page without ever being prompted so see notifications. Apple gets this right.

So instead of getting a permission prompt on load, I will get it when I first click on something. No thanks.

Because they are not a monopoly so those laws don't apply to them.

Safari on iOS is faster than Chrome on Android and given how crappy Google apps on iOS are I have no reason to believe they could do a better job than Apple.

Reminds me of this: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=21405779 -- "the creator should decide how his creation is experienced!" -- no, fuck you, I paid for this and I'm doing with it whatever I like.

I don't get the reference, would you explain?

I don't know what makes you think society wants felons to integrate back. Of course, that's what everybody says out loud, but for many people, that's not the truth.

Since their iOS and Android apps are different, and the iOS one is built using React, I just assumed the Android one is native. Why would they build two different React apps? Isn't the entire point that you can share the code?

What is a "fake" account? One without a real name? The extra ones, when a person decides to create more than one?

The iOS app of Discord is crappy compared to the Android app. I mean, it's not bad bad, but it's not good, or at least not as good. I wonder why they decided to go this route instead of hiring iOS developers?

I could understand if they used the same app for both platforms (like they do with their Electron app, which is also not as good as Ripcord), but since they have a native app for Android...

Very cool actually. I like this response and how it was downvoted: https://www.reddit.com/r/AskTrumpSupporters/comments/dct1be/...

Also a shame how confusing the new interface of reddit is... Yes I know I can go to old.reddit.com but still.

I don't believe that to be an actual quote, but having said that, we live in a post-truth world. We have recognised, at last, that the ends justify the means.

Font so big that you have to zoom out to read anything.

In the era of the Internet, you don't even have to look up "is mona lisa worth seeing". Just by looking up "mona lisa" you can see what the painting looks like. Voilà.

On the other hand just the fact that most people who go there to see it take pictures of it with their mobile phones means that they don't even go to the Louvre to see it, they just want to show others they've seen it.
