Yeah, OP’s post is misleading. Back then, they announced that they will make that change in how votes are displayed.
So they literally did the opposite of what OP is claiming, they started showing real numbers. Those numbers don’t seem unrealistic at all to me. Reddit is one of the most popular websites, and the nature of the frontpage will just mean that posts that reach the top will have huge amount of votes.
I don’t know why are we still talking about reddit here. I’m pretty sure everyone who is here, already hates it.
So all 3 people on the whole bluesky who even know they can do that or give any fuck about mastodon.
So you can’t interact at all, or see bluesky comments or anything. It’s basically as if you subscribed to an RSS feed. Pretty useless no?
Never really understood the appeal of twitter-like platforms anyway.
I had that happen to me when I tried playing MDK recently :D
Micro Cuts in my ass
Meds enhance the effects of grapefruit?
So, there are 2 main places for shortcuts/actions: tracker actions and edge actions.
These are my tracker actions
I set it so it activates when I tap and hold the tracker, it shows up those shortcuts. If I slide my finger towards one of the shortcuts, it activates it.
These are my edge actions
These are actions/shortcuts that you trigger by pushing the cursor to the edge of the screen.
You can pick any app from your phone or any of the actions available in the app, there are a lot… Like system controls (volume, brightness control, media playback buttons, screen lock, screen rotation, etc.) and you can also make a shortcut for Tasker/MacroDroid/Automate action. So basically, you can make a shortcut for almost anything you can think of.
I think it might be possible only in the paid version, but that’s exactly how it works, you just have to increase the Cursor area in Swipe zones settings.
And it does stay under the Twilight if you give Twilight the accessibility permission.
I think you are missing the point of the app. The cursor part of it is more of a gesture, or you can think of it as a “thumb extension”. The point is to help you avoid the inconvenience and save time by allowing you to reach farther parts of your screen without repositioning your hand. I called it a “phone touchpad” just because, when you activate it, a part of the screen is acting like a touchpad. You are not using it for a specific purpose of having a cursor on your phone, the cursor is basically just the tip of your “virtual extended thumb”. So it’s a utility/accessibility software.
Using a physical mouse would be the opposite of what this app is trying to achieve.
On Android, it’s probably a little utility software called Quick Cursor (it’s not FOSS). It’s incredibly convenient being able to spawn a cursor on your phone from thin air that you can use to reach the “unreachable” portions of your screen, especially if you are holding your phone with one hand. Besides being a “phone touchpad” it has a bunch of ways of triggering actions/shortcuts, for example: volume or brightness control, launching an app (I use it for launching a floating calculator, notes…), opening notification shade, copying text (it can copy any text that is under the cursor, even if it’s not selectable)…
It’s not that I couldn’t go without it, but it changed the way I use my phone and it would feel really weird without it. It feels like it should be a part of the OS.
I still use Sync but Thunder looks really promising. Very nice UI and tons of customization options.
The app (locally, on your device) checks if someone from your contact list installed (became available) on Signal, and if they did, you get notified by the app.
And it shares your phone number with everyone in your contacts who has Signal installed.
Someone can get notified only if they already have you in their contact list (so they already have your phone number), and have Signal installed.
I still wish you could choose if you want others to be notified tho…
One trick for a better fingerprint recognition is to set 2+ fingers but scan only one finger for all of them.
This may or may not also increase the likelihood of someone else succesfully unlocking your phone with their own fingerprint.
