Back tap is pretty sick, I have it set up to trigger my flashlight

How are the false positives when using your phone and the notification shade? Sometimes I’ll get false positives holding my phone resting against a hard surface and blast whatever’s behind it

If it’s any consolation, “one handed mode” (at least on pixels) has an option to let you bring the shade down by swiping down on the gesture bar

Swiping down on the fingerprint scanner was my favorite thing on my pixel 5, for checking notifications or fidgeting with it! I was a little bummed when I eventually upgraded, but found that and it works relatively well

I could gladly listen to a song 5000 times, but when Spotify stops shuffling my playlist and plays the same 15 songs on repeat every day for a month I start to notice and get a little bothered! Don’t get me started on enhanced shuffle, either

Yeah, I agree that it shouldn’t be hidden entirely, and luckily as it stands now it’s still visible on the view page if it’s hidden on the home page

That’s fair, and I’m more inclined to believe people on Lemmy would agree with your view thankfully! A lot of high view videos are for sure manufactured, and from what I can tell usually target children.

I guess we’ll see how the landscape changes if this sticks around? We’re all along for the ride, for the most part!

As someone who tries to regularly post videos on YouTube I think this would help me, since I’m sure many people (including me, unfortunately) avoid low view count videos.

But I can absolutely understand why you wouldn’t want it hidden. I’m sure this will lead to major misinformation clickbaiting (as if that isn’t already a problem!), but I believe that the view count will still be visible on the view page.

Is YouTube doing it with small creators actually in mind? Who knows, other than them?

Edit: I do want to clarify that I think hiding the date it was posted is just strange and would probably only lead to problems

It’s alright now, thanks for the suggestion though! The provider was just having awful outages

I actually had starlink a while back, the latency was worse than my 5G/4G box so I didn’t stick with it

I wish they would fix the absolutely tiny area you need to tap in order to get to the weather in the built in At A Glance! Yeah, you know, the one that if you tap 4 pixels too low, 3 pixels too far to the right, or 8 pixels too far left it opens your calendar?

And while I’m on the topic, is it just me or does it feel like the tap targets on all of the Gboard keys are spread out and in weird spots? It makes me misspell words all the time because I keep hitting the wrong letters!

It’s both, I have the Roomba with the camera on the front and it can sometimes avoid dog poop and wires on purpose (and sometimes navigate, but it mostly seems like it navigates like the other models with no cameras by bumping into things that don’t ever move)

I live up on a mountain but I get 4G and 5G service, so my Internet is one of those 5G boxes. It’s usually pretty fast, but recently it’s been chugging along (luckily only for a handful of minutes at a time before going back to normal for a while)

I notice a lot of the same people in most of the popular posts. I guess it’s because the quantity of people that usually comment vs voting or just reading post is pretty low, so you’ll start to recognize them everywhere

It makes me wonder if people recognize me from other posts I comment on!

Yeah but only about 20 seconds

Latency in my life is CRAZY

My Internet is so slow right now that this picture took like 20 seconds to finally appear

The chortle when I finally saw it was absolutely worth it

I don’t think there are that many ads, even if there were you could easily get rid of them by buying my cool Lemmy adblock that uses AI to recognize clever product placement and cover it up with a picture of dirt!

I made the mistake of taking the lady who can’t walk and had to be given a piggy back ride through THE WRONG WAY past the escaped convicts on the Humvee, and haven’t played since

I still want to go back though, I know I can make it through again.

Well, I for one wholly believed Hawk Tuah herself endorsed Proton VPN

I’m American and always thank the staff pretty much no matter where I am, I don’t think I get puzzled looks

Maybe it was the location (I’m in Tennessee, for example) or your accent (assuming you have an Australian accent)

Good thing adblock didn’t work on the browser version of Prime video last time I used it after getting tired of the ads on the app version!

It’s possible they’re embedding ads now though

Yeah it is, my bad! It’s in the body of the post and I forgot lol

I’m conflicted here

On one hand, I play GTA Online, and the amount of hackers is getting out of hand. Most are chill, some are extremely annoying and blow up everyone in the lobby with 800 million explosions a second. In this case, I’m annoyed that I can’t play it and glad there’s anti cheat.

On the other hand, I didn’t realize that BattlEye would prevent Linux users from playing entirely. I’m not a Linux user (yet) myself, but that really sucks. Also, rockstar is extremely predatory with the shark cards (it was worse with Red Dead Online!) so they do kinda deserve it as some form of karma for being terrible

Edit: EAC -> BattlEye
