My personal experience is that one should be ready to watch star trek.
When I was 20 I simply wasn’t ready and didn’t try watching any of it despite a friend insisting it was worth it.
Two years ago, instead, I was so ready that I could enjoy TOS too
I’m still not at discovery, so I need to see the nuTrek to say more. But I really just think you can’t advertise trek too much.
I didn’t delete my accounts, I just use them much less.
I didn’t exactly force myself, it’s just that every time I are then doing shitty things I automatically associate their socials to the dire political situation in the US so I end up not using them.
Also, the advertisement: there’s none in the fediverse, when I’m on the big tech apps I’m not used to adverts anymore
I don’t think it’s federated yet
Office apps removing the top bar (File, Edit, etc) completely, not even by pressing ALT you can have it
Mario Kart newer versions not having missions like we had in the DS edition, does it count? (Not to mention Pokemon not supporting the full dex at every game anymore)
SoundCloud putting way more adverts on the mobile app than on desktop, we are talking about one adv every two songs instead of every 10-20, simply because there are more casual users on the mobile space and the competition is two monopolists like Spotify and YTMusic
Phone built-in music apps (and most local music apps) not supporting division of music by folder, only by metadata
Every single stupid game on mobile framelagging if you don’t have a flagship, because screw lower quality settings, a frogger clone clearly needs hundreds of magabytes to display your voxel art at 120fps even if only 10 end up being shown
AWS changing their console layouts every year but not even once having a clear graphical explanation of all the costs
META chats all having different options and usability and no intercompatibility
WhatsApp changing every now and then so my gradma has to learn every time, and now risks inviting people to calls because the button to add new people has a new quick special place
Google News putting notifications after notification after notification not knowing there are 20 of them already and the user always skips through them. But hey, your phone is now smart with Gemini
Io ho invece la sensazione che I nativi digitali dai 2000-2005 in su tendino a non credere a nulla di ciò che trovano a telefono, e soprattutto che magari usano i social ma non cercano sui motori di ricerca o su wikipedia
Per chi ha vissuto internet pre-social, era scontato che bastava qualche ricerca per ottenere informazioni importanti. Chi invece ha iniziato direttamente sui social non ha appreso questo meccanismo, al massimo lo fa durante un compito per casa apposito.
Ora c’è la nuova ondata com le LLM generative, ma il loro uso mi dà più la sensazione si essere un sostituto di reddit che dei genitori, perché a sua volta reddit era una alternativa ai genitori.
Considerando che prima certe domande le avrebbero fatte a coetanei o poco più, o a google, direi che è buona cosa
Sono proprio shockato /s
La speranza è che la riposta dal basso venga ascoltata
Però più tempo passa con questo exploit delle estreme destre, più le altre forze politiche saranno tentate e gli elettorati accetteranno. Certo il CDU ha un prestigio, che sta mettendo a rischio…
Exactly, you need a specific setup to enjoy it, and you need to give it focus!
I don’t think that making content specifically to be liked by people who wouldn’t enjoy the typical style is a good concept… It can be explored sure, but they also need to make sure to make new trak-like content too
But again I really need to see discovery and snw to see how things are going right now. I also don’t want to judge the s31 movie before watching it
