I use Element (not X) daily, but a major frustration is that sometimes messages that you’ve received won’t show up until you restart the client. In the past a lot of “Waiting for this message, this may take a while” also appeared. In the android app there is also no search function.

Don’t get me wrong I love the concept and the app so far, but it isn’t nearly as polished as Discord is (which I also use daily)

It does kinda suck being defederated from big instances like lemmy.ml because there are big communities there, but at the other end it’s nice to have alternatives on different instances. For example, I can’t view !programmerhumor@lemmy.ml but I can access !programmer_humor@programming.dev.

Lemmy.ml is defederated from ani.social

It also breaks when I try to open it from a notification

OP here, shows me 4 Unicode replacement characters (), freezes and then breaks. Made the post using the web interface because I could not figure out how to embed multiple images ;-;. The original images are 9-10 mb, so that might be the issue

EDIT: they’re all 9248 x 6936 resolution images. That’s most likely the issue

I will turn on subtitles for dubbed media too

Ah, that you for your detailed response

Would the hypothetical nuclear fusion power plant require less water? And do you think that when we finally find out how to do it, a fusion based design will become widespread?

Atomic Shrimp makes variety content about things like foraging, scambaiting, Amazon scams and grocery shopping

Sarah Z makes some really well researched video essays about niche entertainment stuff

Brady Brandwood makes videos about his pet lobster, Leon the Lobster, which he got from the grocery store

That I understand, but adding your kids on your credit card so their score goes up and things like having debt just to pay it back is weird to me

Pretty sure we have some sort of database or Registry for people who don’t pay back their loans. And loans do show up when for example mortgage people do a background check on you

As an European credit scores sound so weird to me 😮

Oh yeah, you do need a credit card for some hotels here. So that’s a reason I guess?

Where I’m from almost no one under 25 gets a credit card, because most non-online/prepaid/crypto credit cards have an age or income limit.

Everyone over the age of 12 has a debit card here. I think it promotes healthy spending knowing you have a set limit and immediately see the amount of money change. Overdrafts are also not enabled by default and require an extra package.

Venmo/Cashapp etc are also uncommon here.

Americans getting credit cards so young is so foreign to me. Here you only get a credit card either for business reasons or if you travel internationally where the European standards for debit cards don’t apply

Am I supposed to see ads? I’m pretty sure I don’t see any
