You can tell Elon is a genius because he gets people to pay to do prototype testing for him.
It highkey kinda sucks tho, being implicitly all like “I I can’thave Apollo do Reddit than nobody can have it!”. Its really childish and selfish in the way it fucks over almthe people who grew dependant on it for their Reddit-type social fix app
Maybe I’ve missed something but as far as I’m aware he hasn’t done anything to try and stop Voyager; he just didn’t give it a seal of approval.
As a practical matter, I wouldn’t invest any time or money into the guy’s projects anymore not because he doesn’t do amazing UI/UX/App work, but because he is not someone is seems to plan long-term or is advised by anyone who could have told him this would be a problem legally or administratively etc.
I think he absolutely does plan ahead. The fact that he was able to absorb the expense of all the refunds he was forced to issue for subscriptions that extended beyond his ability to access the API speaks directly to that.
Not to mention his foresight in being able to bring receipts when Spez and the other Reddit admins attempted to smear him in the press.
I think you feel more strongly about it than I do, so I’m not trying to change your mind or anything. I’m just adding my perspective.
I know; I understand where he was coming from and kinda get it, but I’m not going to stop using it.
Oh Christian…when will you learn you’re not big enough to disrupt existing power structures?
You’re an Aaron Swartz; not a Sam Altman…

They do have a prior project that has been delivered successfully.
Basically the same device minus the screen with just a bare board with LED indicators and powered by a coin cell battery:

240W Data Speed?
Come to think of it the AppleTV app does say a piece of media doesn’t have subs when it does. And if I turn them on the playback hangs for ~10 seconds.
I don’t get the play/buffer/play/buffer issue but I only really use it on my LAN so not really a surprise there.
Can Jellyfin and Plex point to the same libraries and coexist?
I haven’t tried it before but maybe I should. I don’t have huge complaints with the Plex AppleTV app. I just find it laggy at times.
My only real complaint is their app is laggy.
Do you have other complaints with it?

People used the Reddit app?
You don’t hand it over. You don’t even have to unlock your phone:
From the Apple Support Article on presenting your ID:
How to present your driver’s license or state ID in person
- Hold the top of your iPhone or the display of your Apple Watch near the identity reader. You don’t need to unlock, show, or hand over your device to present your license or ID.
- On the screen of your device, review the information that will be shared.
- To provide your consent:
- On an iPhone using Face ID: Double-click the side button to authenticate.
- On an iPhone using Touch ID: Hold your finger on the Home button to authenticate.
- On an Apple Watch: Double-click the side button. When you successfully present your license or ID, a checkmark and Done appear on your device.
In a surprise announcement, the Republican National Committee has revealed it is bankrupt. A spokesman for the party said they had plenty of money in their accounts last week, but today they just don’t know where the money has gone. But not everybody is going begging. Amnesty International, Greenpeace and the United Negro College Fund announced record earnings this week, due mostly to large, anonymous donations.
If there’s not there should be. What a great idea.
“Musk”?
“Responsibility”?
😂🤣🤪
Ok.
But in regards to downvoting comments that’s not relevant.
I don’t think Reddit is user-centric enough for deplatforming to be useful.
