Basically ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I’m sorry but the file picker has been this way since fucking 2004. I was one then, just look how time flies huh. I’m sorry but this issue goes back almost 2 decades of complaining. Seriously.
BUT! The impossible seems to finally have been done! For applications using GTK4 that is, and I think the application you are using might be GTK3. So sorry, unless it updates the toolkit you won’t have a grid view.
Switch to using BSD
As a person who was using OpenBSD as a main driver for 2 years, yeah it’s got it’s benefits and the like. But I’ll stick to Parabola anyway.
408·1 year agoThese are very good news, I just hope more instances beyond lemmy.ml do so too.

Oh fuck off!
Well this fuckings sucks. Hard.
owari da
lemmy has been redditified
the fediverse has fallen
Exactly, it’s free software so.instance admins ought to be able to decide, but the devs should nudge them into a preffered direction.
Many admins are lazy, and they expect their software to run well on sensible defaults, most won’t care and just go with whatever the devs consider to be fine. By choosing wether Meta is blocked or not by default the fediverse will have to take a stance.
Do we allow extremely powerful corporations that want to monopolize their influence but we get a user surge in the short term.
Or do we block them by default and anyone making an instance should make the concious choice to join the corpo-verse themselves so we can continue to foster a healthier alternative to whatever they are cooking.
I’d rather have the latter.
That’s known, but it’s foolish to think that for example Mastodon isn’t seen as a Twitter alternative. Meta knows that and I think they want to not just be a corporate alternative to twitter, they want to make sure they are the alternative to twitter. The Fediverse has to take measures defending itself or Threads will overtake and stomp over everything, even if the sudden user surge might be appealing to some.
Understandable, but I myself think a Meta block ought be a changeable but default option on most fediverse software.
Same thing people thought of when Google made an XMPP based client.
I don’t think you realize what people such bad publicity would attract…
