moonleay··on Apple will not let me join the Developer Program – and will not say why
While android also has this problem (requiring a Developer account), it is not that bad, because you can still publish apps outside of the app store. Sadly Google is hard at work to remove this functionality.
moonleay··on AirPods libreated from Apple's ecosystem
A cool project, when you want to use AirPods outside of Apples ecosystem. Sadly, you have to use a rooted android device with a small patch due to a bug in the Android Bluetooth implementation. https://issuetracker.google.com/issues/371713238
moonleay··on How AWS is losing the younger generation with complexity
Not surprising in my opinion. It is not hard to setup a VPS with whatever you want to deploy nowadays. 99% of the websites out there don't need to be able to infinity scale and it is way cheaper to host your stuff on a VPS, that doesn't have the risk of exploding in cost the way s3 does.
moonleay··on Show HN: Linkpreview, see how your sites looks in social media and chat apps
Cool idea, though it seems like it still requires some polish. There are small issues, for example: the design of HN links on Discord does not seem to be correct.
moonleay··on The Problems and Shortcomings of Cosmic
This seems like a continuation of his rant on his pastebin-like miniblog [1], in which he completely disregards that Cosmic is still in alpha and completely shits on it for having issues. It is kinda sad to see FOSS devs shitting on other projects, especially when they are still in alpha.

moonleay··on Ask HN: What tools are you using to quickly build websites/apps?
Dotnet Blazor when it needs a Website, Kotlin if it doesn't.
moonleay··on Microsoft stole my Chrome tabs, and it wants yours, too
What does Edge do, what Firefox or Chrome for that matter, cant do? In my experience there is little to no changes bysides the added microsoft bloat.

moonleay··on Choose the browser that best suits your privacy needs
Good. Personally, I haven’t encountered any big issues with FF yet, just the occasional bug in the web version of ms teams.
moonleay··on Grayjay – Follow Creators Not Platforms
Will there be support for streaming videos from Piped instances?
