No I don’t want to lose my library 😭

Water might be wet

Being comfortable with websites is a very western thing (and I guess that is also a minority in smartphones). In countries like India, a huge majority of the people’s first personal computer was a smartphone. They either use the google app to browse the web or use other apps. No one bothers to use a web browser. It is still the case today. A lot of people don’t use a desktop here.

A lot of normies won’t be using Lemmy or fediverse in general. It is not as addictive or personalised as the mainstream social media. Plus an avg joe doesn’t know whan an instance is. If one instance starts to get too many users, it might just shut down sign ups.

Edit: Lemmy also doesn’t have an “official” app. So it adds even more friction. Yeah a few users might get excited and use it for a couple of days and then just go back to reddit.

Wonder why all the webapps look the same now?🤖

It’s so bad that I can’t even tell which website I am opening at this point. Everything has the same design, icons, layout, etc.

Same goes the other way.

I really want to post this to r/IndiaTech on reddit. Few of the fellas there are simps for Starlink because a village with hundreds to a few thousands of people need it (spoiler alert: they don’t. The government owned company BSNL is already laying fibre in villages).

But I don’t have an account ughh.

Authentik with passwordless flow. I have two options at login—Sign in with Passkey or Sign in with Google for my family.

A lot of lemmy servers have Human Verification in front of them maybe that’s why?
