Based on my kids' usage, TikTok is for passive consumption, whereas Snapchat seems to be primarily a messaging service with content as a sideshow. So if Snapchat stopped existing tomorrow they'd probably move to iMessage. Until on

I think this is only true for small biz. All the big names quietly or publicly abandoned their efforts to fully migrate to React Native, focusing only on the most simple use-cases/views if they do keep it around. Even with the smartest

To using reddit as reddit intends, either the default interface on the web (so not old.reddit), or even more likely the first-party apps on iOS and Android.

> the concept of "servers" is not one that makes any actual sense; they are using that word as a stand-in for rooms/workspaces/etc What do you mean? The analogue to rooms would be channels, which falls under a server.

Being embarrassed by it seems childish. Who are you trying to impress?

First, I'll share my experience. My wife and I have one bank account, and 2 credit cards each under our name to ensure credit score activity happens. I was a secondary on her credit card for years assuming it was building my credit too

I'm still an outsider (recent immigrant to Canada) but my impression of right vs left politicians here reminds me very much of Dems vs Reps in the US. When the right obtains power, they incrementally and consistently put the pieces in

On the subject of cars, the effect is far more pronounced in Canada vs the southern US. Every time I go down south I'm struck by the sheer variety of year models and colors. When I return to Canada and spend a few hours on the 401 or

Yes! This was especially obvious to me as a kid watching all the popular 90s sitcoms with my mom every evening. ABC shows (oddly with the exception of Roseanne, now that you mention, that set really balanced it out) always had a bright, alm

I'll make a wild guess and say that Fox News's audience trends much older. And as sibling comment says, CNN is well known internationally.

I can only understand this sentiment if you're stuck in a single room/studio apartment. Many of us have houses, apartments, or condos that aren't anywhere near the size of a mansion.

I think the Series X is consistently in stock in Canada now. People who want the PS5 still need to be vigilant and track store inventories.

Xbox sweetens the deal even further with Xbox All Access. For $40CAD/month, I got an Xbox Series X and Game Pass. I pay off the console in 2 years with no additional interest, and I immediately had access to a library of great games wh

It sucks that Google did that, but if you're relying on a third party lib for something important/in production, why wouldn't you have your own mirror?

You don't think about it even when you see the spinning lock? Finding the button with my thumb in my pocket was just impulse. Phone unlocked by the time I'm looking at it. I have to start looking at my phone, watch the screen wake

I used to have my phone unlocked before it was even out of my pocket. FaceID at its fastest (I have a 13 Pro) feels slow. I haven't had a TouchID phone since 2018 and I still miss it. It never made me wait.

Netflix effectively killed torrenting's chances at truly reaching the masses. Most people weren't hooking a PC up to their TV. By the time little hackable streaming devices became popular Netflix had already fully taken over.

It doesn't matter, especially with the old Carbon being mostly dead. Just look at how successful "golang" is.

There's no data to back up the claim that "foreign investors" are contributing to Canada's issues in any significant way. It certainly does not explain exploding house prices in small towns 2 and 3 hours outside of major
