True and the time insensitivity is a real benefit. Thanks for the chat!

Another device still tends to be in the same location. I wouldn’t use the own service’s sync but an encrypted backup stored on a separate cloud service should be fine.

Realistically what is the alternative for the average person who does not have two separate physical locations for redundancy? Give your backup codes to a friend?

Smaller communities do feel like communities here. Lemmy as a whole is not that big but it still feels pretty public for me. I’m probably more of an introvert than you :p Public conversations like talking with someone on the bus (or like this) scare me a bit but exposure helps.

Still, it’s nice you can enjoy these longer convos.

Makes sense I guess. I tend to see comment threads as one-off things and don’t pay much attention to usernames. Maybe when you comment more you end up interacting with the same people eventually and if you’re lucky they’ll remember you too.

It’s a bit hard to compare this to outside life as I don’t tend to have conversations with strangers. But some people do, so it must work well sometimes.

Not sure what’s the point to them then. If you’re at the mall you’re already inconvenienced

A convenience store next to a supermarket isn’t very convenient unless the supermarket is huge. Most convenience stores tend to be closer to you and stay open more hours than supermarkets. I’m ok paying more for that. Convenience stores here are run by neighborhood people, supermarkets are run by rich businessmen. Starbucks is not that kind of shop though.

How do you even start this on lemmy? You have an interesting conversation with someone in a thread and then just send them a message to keep talking? It feels like most people would think you’re a bot.

Since you mention Tusky I guess you’re talking about android? If so, there are apps you can set as a default browser and ask you every time you click on a link which app to open it in. URLCheck is great and you can set an automation for what you’re asking. But this is assuming you’re not already inside cromite when clicking on the link.

4 games folders is… impressive

Haven’t thought about it but do both. Home screen is mostly for widgets. Left screen for social media and messaging without folders. Right screens have named folders with many apps I don’t use often.
