They are calling it toxic empathy from what I understand. I wish I was kidding.

Today’s cell phone companies either don’t know (unlikely) or don’t care (likely) how badly some of us want different formfactors for cell phones, or having actual, decent, physical keyboards to type on. I am tired of the black rectangle (or folding black rectangle) phone. Give us some damn variety!!

My coworkers and I were having issues getting any information from another team to do our job. Since we had a set deadline to finish the work, I set up a Monday/Wednesday meeting schedule to extract the information we needed from that team. My boss and the other team’s boss turned it into a two hour update-fest with us and the other team updating our respective bosses, with both teams in the meeting. So fucking pointless, and so far away from what that meeting was supposed to be, it is truly astonishing we were able to get anything done.

Oh and the other team stopped providing the information we needed to finish when our bosses converted our meeting to update-fest.

Does Lemmy provide that kind of fidelity in terms of who is specifically upvoting and downvoting? I’m not suggesting doing anything with that information but, as you say if it’s only a handful of individuals, would the mods be able to see who?

It’s in beta right now. I’m using it to comment.

They are most likely a circle lol.

I’ve have Samsung phones for a long time, and I’ve come to accept that I suck at typing with a virtual keyboard. So I think my next phone will be a Titan 2, or hopefully a Titan 2 slim since the 2 seems to be pretty big.

Oh, but Piefed support on Voyager is still in beta. Kinda forgot.

Ah, it does indeed now have a positive 1 in the downvote. You’d think the implementation of ActivityPub would have that be consistent.

This is off topic but I have never seen a negative downvote. Is… Is that like an upvote but with more steps???

I don’t work for them, I just happen to like the idea that there is a phone company making smaller sized phones, phone with physical keyboards, etc.

IB4 the comments complaining about android versions and such. Yes, I get it. Some of them are still running android 11, yes that is a security risk. Could be though that the people that want a small form factor phone also don’t want to do banking or other financially related things on it as well.

I swear to god I saw the picture as I was scrolling past and I thought someone had stuck JD Vance’s face multiple times in various configurations on these peoples heads…

Its not nuts, but people in the US are already barely scraping by. Asking them to forgo further paychecks is a very big ask.

I know all of this and it is still so slimy. Thank you for voicing it though.

Working just fine on my Retroid Pocket 5 too
