Yes I forgot about the vertical too. I guess it's because the video isn't worth the effort to turn the phone horizontal.
How does this work? You watch 100's of ~10 second videos in a row for hours? Trying to understand because this seems to be a common thing these days.
I have never tried tiktok and only saw some YouTube shorts. I see one or two and it annoys me because it's clipped badly, gives bad information, or just shows something meaningless. Random loud music. The same video keeps playing on a loop as I try to think.
Even if it was great content, my brain just couldn't stay focused beyond a couple videos. The constant changes to a new video would be exhausting for me. There's also no time to think about what you just saw.
I did notice it is getting really buggy lately. What would you recommend instead for something similar as someone who used to use Apollo?
Boss forced everyone to come into work because she was tired of using tech. Wanted people to come in and eat ice cream while brainstorming with post it notes. Said anyone not there is fired.
Well she didn't put any effort into planning it, and it was very inefficient so everyone ended up using their computers like they had been doing at home. Just with more distractions and needing to commute. Not much work got done so everyone needed to work from home that night after hours to meet deadlines.
Well it turns out the guy passing out icecream was also passing out covid. Every single person on the team got sick. None of the projects were completed by the deadlines and the entire department was shut down. Everyone lost their jobs.
The boss herself is still unemployed over a year later because she is now disabled with long covid. Has a heart problem from it where she can pass out at random times. Can no longer taste ice cream.
Everyone I know in my area showers about twice a week. Every day seems bizarre to me but it's a cold climate so maybe it's different? Sweating almost never happens at all.
I remember reading that a decade ago. Weird to see something from a decade ago and to have been there on that same page way back then. Is this what being old is like?
Unfortunately I can't read more than the beginning since it is now paywalled.
Now that you mention it, I forgot that I blocked those meme communities because it didn't interest me.
Not sure what the average age on those are, just figured they had different tastes.
Seniors have a lot of time but can barely figure out Facebook as it is.
This is surprising to me, I actually experienced the opposite. Reddit had a lot of teens but Lemmy seems to have older posters who are more thoughtful about what they post. In my 30's myself and wasn't able to get anyone younger than 34 to join.
It could just be the communities you subscribed to?

I really enjoyed it on the New 3DS. It didn't use glasses and being handheld you were always positioned perfectly. Given it has been another decade and higher resolution that tech would be amazing in a smartphone.
I bought one and used it like an mp3 player. They immediately stopped selling more disks so I just kept reusing the one I had. Still have it and it works to this day. Not much point in using it though when you can just stream from your phone.
Lol yeah the news kept saying stuff like a new transportation technology that will revolutionize how you get around. It doesn't use any gas or fuel. It was so mysterious and futuristic. Then ended up being an uncool scooter.
This was my favorite tech of all time. I don't think most people ever got to try it where it worked without glasses.
Does it have an option for satellite radio?
