"Privacy-focused" unless you need privacy from the EU itself. DNS services know every website your computer connects to before HTTPs comes on, so it's rather sensitive.

Hard disagree. If people cared, then all iOS apps would use standard styling, but the matter of fact is that every app has its own style, which does not stop at colors. They all share the same affordances (top left arrow to go back, bottom tab bar) but the UI is more often than not heavily customized.

Take Slack for example with its fancy menus, not even close to what Apple uses. No feelings expected there. Let's not talk about Google apps, which live in its own UI world.

The fun part is that Spotlight used to do this, but they progressively made it worse year after year. It became completely unusable for me maybe a couple of years ago and switched to Raycast, which I use exactly like I used to use Spotlight in 2010 and nothing more.

Sorry to burst your bubble but users literally do not care "how native it looks" other than the vocal minority online. Never ever heard any non-technical user complain that Spotify does not fit in.

I think that once a bug has been verified and keeps getting likes, it should not be closed.

If the user never responded to further questions, then absolutely.

What I see however is that maintainers themselves fight the bot removing the label and reopening issues. Over and over. Until they miss the notification.

Don't forget all major OSS repositories using a stale bot to close any issue regardless of how many people reported it or how serious it is. Close and lock at times. Yikes.

Time to open source your solutions?

Why keep using Notes if if it hurts you so much that they're not markdown-exportable?

I haven't used Notes in decades other than to type out junk/numbers once every 4 months.

> there’s no way to ascertain ownership of an account (like 3DS)

3DS is 2FA and PayPal most definitely has it, it's just that they protect the customer regardless of 2FA.

Crows and parrots are amazing talkers too, but there's a hard limit to how much sense they make. Do you want those birds to teach your kids and serve you medicine?

You can't "remove" how LLMs describe changes. I'm not talking about useless comments, I was just saying that they describe changes the same way as they comment code.

I told you how it is. Copilot writes crap descriptions that just distract from the actual code and the intention of the change. If your commit messages are in any way better than that, then please enlighten us rather than calling me a bot.

If you're lucky to work in such an environment, more power to you. A lot of people have to deal with React where you need so much glue for basic tasks, and React isn't even the worst offender. Some boilerplate you can't wrap.

> I haven't written a commit summary in months

I don't know what you're posting, but if it's anything like what I see being done by GitHub copilot, your commit messages are junk. They're equivalent to this and you're wasting everyone's time:

    // Sets the value
    const value = "red"

Can anyone explain to me how Tinder changed exactly? I don’t think it did, it's just that people learned how to use it better (rather, women learned to be vastly more selective on it and/or pile up matches without replying to anyone)

Coffee is a Muslim thing then. How do you feel about that?

If you want to try easy mode, check out those newfangled android-based credit card terminal. I bet they're much more rewarding, especially since you tap your pin on the screen. Juicy.
