True, which is why I prefaced about the nitpick

Totally agree. Check out wefwef.app if you haven’t already. You can add a shortcut to your homescreen so it opens and looks like a native app (which closely resembles Apollo). If you need help with that, let me know.

Not even joking, I use this nickname for her frequently.

It’s broken. Some people are saying it’s a lemmy issue and not specific to this app, but I don’t have this problem when using wefwef.

Only nitpicking this because I have a family member named Millie. If you shorten Mildred, it would be Milly with a “y”

Millie spelled like this isn’t short for anything, it’s the full name.

How do I find and interact with things inside the fediverse but outside of lemmy? Like mastodon for example. Do I need to make a mastodon account or is there a way for me to see and interact with it using my lemm.ee account?

Yeah that makes sense. I have no problem using wefwef for the time being until these other apps iron the kinks out.

Yeah, it doesn’t work a lot of the time. It also let me log in but says I don’t subscribe to any communities (which is wrong) and doesn’t show many any communities when I use search.

I have way more bugs on Memmy. I can’t even reply to most comments in that app for some reason. Wefwef can be a little finicky but smoother overall for me.

I love that the it emphasizes that this is a joke and you should absolutely not do this and then lists a bunch of steps that are basically “set up your own instance and be an awesome administrator!”

I figure you’d audit it by examining the results, and if bias isn’t detectable in the results

I was just asking for more info on how you’d examine the results for bias since it would need to be pretty extreme like the example you gave to be identifiable as something worth investigating.

All good if you don’t have a more specific answer, I was just curious what your personal thoughts were here.

Right, that’s why I was trying to ask you for your opinion on what the threshold for “investigation worthy” results

That would be a pretty extreme bias to have, so yeah that would make sense. If it’s not so drastic it might be harder to spot by just looking at the results.

What would unbiased results look like?

Definitely not. It’s what’s known as a “dark pattern” in the industry.

Is this at the Morikami Gardens in Delray Beach? Looks very similar.

Oof, you’re talking to the wrong guy. I’m literally a user experience designer. Not even joking.

User interface just means the styling of the website. The colors, button styles, typography, line-spacing, imagery, etc. These guys usually build out pattern libraries or design systems for the UX guys and developers to work with.

User experience design is much more broad, hard to give a general definition. Basically try design “architect” I suppose, that creates blueprints based on data extrapolated through analytics and research.

Sometimes they go as far as to build out prototypes and deliverables for developers using the pattern library created by the UI designers.

This might be the only actual old person trait in this thread (OP included). The rest is basically just “I don’t want to be fucked over.”

Absolutely. We need a prison reform.

It’s absolutely a reason why they shouldn’t vote. They don’t pay taxes here, they don’t need or deserve representation because of this. It’s so simple you are unable to grasp it.

That’s great that you think that, but legally they are still a parent with a child so by Musks suggestion, they’d still be able to vote. You seem to be confusing philosophical thought exercises with legal definitions and real world applications.

So let me know if you ever come up with some evidence that suggests limiting voters to parents only would be a net benefit. Again, doesn’t need to be studies. Isn’t there some research on voting patterns and ideals of parents vs non-parents? I already gave one example but it doesn’t support your argument, quiet the opposite exactly. Your one study showed that parents don’t stop smoking weed, just slow down a little bit, so you can’t really argue they are better because they don’t smoke weed since that’s not true.

Until then, feel free to respond with more nonsense, I’ll just stop responding until you formulate an actual argument for your position.
