  • yea id be fine with that…but my worry is apple restricts it to a predefined set of choices with no shortcuts integration at all. which is what they do with triple clicking the side button in accessibility for some reason.

    and yea backtap is fine but between the tapping and shortcuts triggering it either doesn’t work or takes way too long. just think shortcuts could use way better integration to other parts of ios including hardware. but should feel more seamless



  • also this would prob encourage further adoption of the shortcuts app for users and developers. apple could kind of “force them” to use it and further explore how powerful of an app it is.

    i know from my own personal experience i dont use the app at all even though ive seen examples of how useful it can be, because it still feels like an overall clunky experience to use and to fully understand.

    i consider myself decently tech literate (i made it on here at the very least lol) and have yet to feel the urge to put aside the time to really dig into that app.

    theres no way the average iphone user or id wager even the average pro user even knows what the shortcuts app does, let alone uses it effectively.







  • imma shoot you an upvote for diversity of opinion, even though you wrongly assume i’ve had the wool pulled over my eyes by western imperialists.

    it’s clear the instance has views that don’t align with my own but i did mention it seemed well moderated and at least thoughtful. but i don’t fuck with any community that can be triggered by discussion lmfao. if you have any community recs for progressive policy, im all ears baby.

    also prob not a good look to assume all americans or westerners are lib brained or brainwashed imperialists. there isn’t a single truly socialist country on this planet; even china partakes in mostly liberal economic policy while governing behind the guise of it’s communist party.

    but guess what: everyone loves money the same across all parts of the globe, and all willingly partake in capitalism no matter what they spout, so they can keep lining their pockets.

    got a lot of holier-than-thou motherfuckers on this site, ay?




  • Any view on history/society that involves the word “deserved” is probably not for me lol. Thanks for the response.

    As you guessed my bullshit meter was tingling which made me make this post in the first place. Only did a surface level browsing but it seems to be the largest lefty instance on lemmy so far and it has the most active latestagecapitalism community, which is pretty harmless, so it gave me some pause.

    Interesting that lemmy would allow such instances to exist while mastodon prohibits them. Still learning the fediverse so I appreciate it.
