@alcinnz I forget - do GNOME apps work on elementary OS? If so Kooha works nicelyhttps://apps.gnome.org/en-GB//app/io.github.seadve.Kooha/

This is a very valid argument, and one i continue to forget - it's not the mastodon universe, it's the federated universe, the Fediverse. There's more options for communicating in the Fediverse than use Mastodon. Just like there's more email clients in the world than just <whichever email client you use>.(Although, it needs to be said those other options come with a spectrum of usability difficulties)https://mastodon.social/@youronlyone/109260510719668078

HSBC UK credit card 5% interest rate increases. So much for "free credit". Thankfully I use this for nothing other than car rental.Time to change? Time to get rid of it?

This increase, on the other hand, is much more important. Since silly UK left the EU, most (if not all) UK mobile operators stopped free mobile roaming. If I were to change my mobile contract, I'd loose my monthly ~25-30GB data allowance which, right now doesn't cost me anything when I....visit...Europe.My alternative? Add data to my EU SIM, ditch my now very expensive UK SIM and get the cheapest, crappiest alternative. Yay Brexit. We certainly got benefit.

@JF @PINE64 Nice video. I've seen them and thought about buying one. I'm very happy with my analog tick tock watch, but they look fun. Do you think its "take it for a swim" proof?

Google Podcasts app is dead.But my @AntennaPod Podcast app still works great.https://www.theverge.com/2024/4/2/24118873/google-podcasts-shutdown-graveyardIt's sad when good apps die due to small companies with limited resources, like Google, having to "focus all its podcasting efforts on YouTube Music".

...It always goes the same way: the company launches a new service with grandiose language about how this fits its mission of organizing and making accessible the world’s information, quickly updates it with a couple of neat features, immediately seems to forget it exists, eventually launches a competitor out of some other part of the company, obviously begins to deprecate it and shift focus to the new competitor, and then, years later, finally shuts it down for real."
