The download button doesn't even work properly.

Clicking download in the top right gives me a .dmg, the other download button in the hero gives me the .exe, the one in the footer gives me a .dmg

Docs give me a 404, blog is empty

Yeah, looks totally broken on my machine too.

You don't need to spend anywhere near $40k a year to get that info... You don't even need to spend $1

It's still not really anything special. Thousands isn't even large scale.

Any random bozo can trigger that.

kadir: Kazakhstani

karim: Dutch

That's just the super high US salaries. Hire from elsewhere in the world, and you'll spend significantly less.

Designshippers' team is Kazakh, Pakistani, and Dutch. You won't be paying anywhere close to even 18k/mo in those countries.

Because everyone lives in only those two cities/tz?

(which is their service, and most of their comments are just promotion for their services)

That's just their fault at that point, in my opinion.

It's not a government app, and you don't need it.

BankID (which is the one I assume he's talking about, and not Freja eID) is owned by several banks, but you aren't forced to use it. You can use a "bankdosa" (a separate physical device for auth)

Yes. Minimum 6-digit PIN (I don't know if there's a max) and you can enable biometrics.

Well, you all know what this means... RIP Airtable

I can’t say I have. The only two times I’ve been frustrated with an elevator were when I was inside one and the doors wouldn’t close, and when someone had pressed the emergency stop, so I couldn’t use it.

Or it's just in no particular order

I trust crowdsourced more than this because this doesn't even specify where the data is from.

"Prices scraped weekly from local sources" is so vague. What sources?

And apparently also thinks every person using an older browser version is a bot, I guess.

I don't understand why the page even links to other stuff... I can't access those either because they just redirect back to that page

I wish an LLM hadn't written this and the other posts, because I do actually find them interesting.

I haven't seen this before, but I have received ad notifications from the Photos app several times. I can't quite remember what they were advertising, but maybe prints or photo frames?

I'm not going to convince you. If you feel like it's just not fun, I'd say move on to something else you actually enjoy.

I say this because you said it's a hobby. If you have to deal with C&Ds, content moderation, support, copycats, etc... then it starts to feel like a job.

But since you made this post, maybe there's still some part of you that wants to keep going.

I'm not saying the situation isn't serious. I'm saying I can't take these performative fluff statements seriously.

Going on and on about how good these people are and then how well the business is going, as they are firing them.

"special, beautiful humans" "wonderful humans" "kind, ambitious, hard working, and mission-driven humans"

> I don't expect or want them to police what creators do with that service.

Well, they do actually. They have a lot of restrictions on what 18+ content you can publish.

Like you can't publish "real" porn, or that's how I interpret this at least:

> Works depicting sexual activity between real, adult participants are not permitted.

What's your point?

I can never take such statements seriously.

What does this mean?

Was this comment generated? Your other comments use "--" instead of an em dash... or were all of them generated, but you forgot to replace them with "--" in this one?

The site is unbelievably slow, to the point where it isn't even usable.

What does OTA mean? And how does it "cut hotel prices 30-50%"?

Russian banks have been doing something similar. They disguise their banking apps as all kinds of stuff, like timers, workout apps, and real estate apps

Not just that. It also spoofs a bunch of browser stuff.

A standard headless browser will probably get flagged.

No.
