I think it's a UX friendly wrapper around the poor UX super annoying official 'e-id'. I don't think it's me would have space in the market if the official e-id was as easy to use and reliable as the official one.

Speaking from experience where a team here has made a RIBS implementation. Stay away, keep it simple. Even at a fang size company it's not worth it

I'd rather buy dedicated hardware and have it just work. Currently using portal from facebook, works pretty well but limited to the most used video calling like zoom. No google meet :/

Can't edit anymore, should have elaborated more: I'm not suggesting we need this for many reasons, I'm wondering how this will evolve. FB, Insta,TikTok, newspapers etc have these issues, many opportunists hiding behind the

Last I heard about this in hard reduction groups, people experience this after 1-2 years of chronic daily usage. It's definitely something to keep an eye on. But people would be able to get through many sessions before being at risk.

Bring backs memories when I wrote an Android Visual Voicemail for a telco. Fun fact, iOS couldn't do this as they have contracts with other telco's. Navigating through these folders wasn't that great tho. Setting your voicema

Funny how those articles are popular, hating on big tech creates high engagement. Haven't we heard that argument before?

Isn't this the same with Android phones and google accounts? Or iphones and icloud accounts? Like android had custom roms without google, i guess this open the path to roms without fb? I think no can disagree that this is at least a st

The amount of bias in tech savvy people here is scary. This is def a power move, don't think they do it for us as consumers tho.

I do kotlin daily, almost exclusively including side projects. Kotlin native has been rocky personally, I'll check back in a year. Kotlin on Android is a must compared to Java, else you're a fool. Haven't seen any exceptions

Same for Uber etc. Last I heard the amount available was reduced with the Trump administration. Haven't verified anything, but yes I have experienced the same. I got offered a role from the same companies but in the EU.

At what point does logging thousand of web response not become scraping? I would call collecting a dataset scraping. It's a legit question, I'm not trying to be snarky here.

All this sensational fb bashing is boring. What company allows scraping? Most of them play this cat and mouse game. Digg might have still been alive if they would manage to block it.

Fair point. I know they have 'paid partnership' annotation in posts. I didn't notice they are circumventing that.

The article states that they moved of the ads platform. If people pose with a cigarette and it's allowed by content guidelines of the platform and country, would you expect to have it censored? If I post a picture that I am smoking

I agree, and you do have that right, it's a gradient and yes this is up for debate. It really isn't this black and white. That being said, I would like to see a platform for discussion from BOTH parties instead of blogposts with n

There seems to be a hive mind attitude that bashing big tech is the "right thing" to do. And sensation ofcourse. "a typical example of what happens when companies don’t think about abusive relationships when they’re making
