The way they have done it is not by restricting other services directly, but by continuing to apply bandwidth/quotas to them while bypassing them for their own services “for free”

Be sure to enable “list” view for posts

Are you going to ignore the rest of what I wrote? lol

Have you ever used “RIF is fun” for reddit? It is amazing, lots of tiny UI optimizations make it a pleasure to consume content much faster than scrolling up and down reddit’s UI for both links and comments

The app just feels better/faster. Think of this way: a webapp = browser + pwa. You have all of the resource requirements of the browser itself, plus whatever it needs to render the html/css of the webapp running on top of that. many webapps are just written so poorly (like the new reddit page) that the browser struggles to do simple things like smooth scrolling). Plus being native means there is better support for things like save/print dialogs, themes/dark mode, helper apps/intents, etc)

If none of this matters to you and a webapp feels ok to you, that’s great! use what you want! I’m happy for you

But you came in here asking why people prefer native apps and we gave you an answer, you don’t have to be antagonistic

I don’t think you understood what I was suggesting.

Use the search function at the top of Beehaw

I don’t use Beehaw (my instance is lemm.ee), but let’s pretend I do. My whole premise is I don’t always start there. Like if run into a community on Lemmy Explorer or some other site (maybe a google search?), I can easily find myself on a community on a remote server.

For example, can you click here: https://lemmy.world/c/nostupidquestions

What do you see? Any way to subscribe for you? It just tells you to go back home and search for it I would love there to be a browser extension or plugin that automatically recognizes the community’s instance and address and sends it back home to Beehaw for you to subscribe. Can be via API or just redirect you to Beehaw’s view of it

Reddit? Are they new? Never heard of it 🤣 Probably won’t get very big

that would be amazing! even just like a hover popup or secondary link to send me to the community but through my instance would help a lot

• Start at lemmy.world, click the magnyfying glass up top to search.
• type in the search bar
• click search
• you should see the Jokes and Humor community info popup.
• Click the title of the community to go into the community (but through your server)
• Click the subscribe link in the sidebar

I have a comment here wishing it could be better :/

I just use it through Bing. https://www.bing.com/search?q=Bing+AI&showconv=1&FORM=hpcodx

To me, properly optimized native apps tend to be less-bloated than their web equivalents. Have you ever used “RIF is fun” for reddit? It is amazing, lots of tiny UI optimizations make it a pleasure to consume content much faster than scrolling up and down reddit’s UI for both links and comments

Tetris Effect on VR (ps/quest). think hypnotic trance

you know what I really wish, some easier way to be able to subscribe to a community on a remote instance from your own account. Like a shared login or some browser extension that sees you’re on a lemmy and allows you to subscribe from your account back home

maybe I’m using it wrong, but right now If I’m browsing lemmy explorer and find a community on a lemmy.ca, I have to copy it then go back to my local lemmy where I have my account to add it

What a jerk

Will try it

I think all we need is a killer app like RIF or Sync or Apollo

Got my ticket ready!
