And the install decisions are made by people with options.

In a word: enshittification.
Honestly, people should have to go back to school when the turn 70 for a year to get updated. Plenty of folks still think capitalism runs on “make a good product at a good price.”

Yeah,but you won’t be able to get a job with it for five years.

Cool, thanks for the recommend.
I think I’ll stick to Voyager for now and compose my longer drafts offline.

Not by accident, no.

Nice! Thank you! That puts a lot of things in their proper context!!

And here the Voyager lemmy community insists it’s an OS issue.

I think it costs electricity to flip bits, but unless things are moving, there’s not much going on. If the app isn’t actively being used, I was wondewring why it couldn’t just get frozen in carbonite and dumped into storage until the user needed it again.

Thanks for that. Pretty cool how that works. Linux does have swap files, though.

It’s supposed to save drafts; it just didn’t in my case, and in other people’s cases as well.
The Voyager lemmy hasn’t been too interested in my feedback.

So instead of coming up with a technical solution, they came up with a political one…
- Comment on Why doesn't Android save app memory into storage instead of killing the process in RAM? 1 week ago:
I’m guessing it’s more a matter of having a cheaper product with less RAM than it is about the manufacturer. I’m guessing the behavior is standard across all Android devices.

I see under memory only that I can turn of Memory Profiler, which I guess will tell me what’s going on under the hood. Also looks like I have a whole 4G of memory, more than anyone would ever need! lol

Why does it necessarily have an impact on battery life? Can it just be dumped into memory and frozen there as a snap shot? It doesn’t need to be running.
- Comment on Why doesn't Android save app memory into storage instead of killing the process in RAM? 1 week ago:
The one time I did lose my draft, I couldn’t get it back. There’s no setting for memory on Android on Voyager.
So you’re saying there is a swap file (I’m on a cheapier Samsung Tablet A right now), but even that’s too small to hold much memory. I know in Windows you could set the size of the swap file; honestly, I’d much rather wait an extra second to get the program back into RAM than lose a draft, so I think there really must be a good technical reason it’s not happening.

Your /s tag has me a bit confused.
I know what you mean about google, but you seem to be talking mostly about AI.
And, in this case, there is a standard manual that describes the diagnostic critera for anxiety and a bunch other stuff that is gonna have been cut-and-pasted a million times verbatim so even Google’s AI is not going to fuck that up.

i take an open approach. if something helps someone, great! What i’m against is people over-identifying with a diagnosis and being infantilized by the medical system.

also: not really the issue here
- Comment on [deleted] 1 week ago:
fyi - i’m not the mod
asking easily googleable questions while talking about a personal situation seems like an invitation to give medical advice even if not explicitly requested

That answering provides you satisfaction is not a valid cause for an exception, i don’t think.

That’s a relief.
Yes, I used markdown for italics and bold and strikethrough and whatnot, it’s not hard. But it’s easy enough to learn just by pressing the Bold button to see **what happens**, but there’s no button that illustrates the use of a double space before a return for a new line, it’s just something someone has to tell you.

Ah! Thank you for explaining it in terms of typewriters, now it’s much clearer in my mind!
The confusion still lingers. I used to cut and paste websites to print. One part of the condensation process, in addition to removing ads, was removing all the two-space line breaks of CRCR or LFLF; I still have to search for both.

Also, you can probably learn Markdown in the time it took you to write that post.
so it was a stupid question?

Yeah, I actually kind of low-key hate reddit’s WYSIWIG editor because I do already know most of the markdown shortcuts and it’s faster (and I think there was a time when you couldn’t even use Ctrl-B for bold but has to grab your mouse). But you can teach yourself the formatting marks by hitting the button and seeing which characters get added, * for asterisks ~~ for strikethrough etc… the line break thing is completely opaque.
