They can be disabled using ADB and App Manager

If he’s wealthy then he has a lot of assets which can serve as a guarantee for the creditor.

I have a friend who uses it religiously, and I found out they would sometimes sneak pictures of people around them, including me. Totally uncool behavior!

You thought Lemmy’s co-founder and main developer is a bot? Lmao

People use AI for making “art” not because of their lack of ability to create art per se, but they use it rather as a way to cut costs in their commercial projects and skip contracting real artists. This is why it’s malicious. I wouldn’t care if somoeone uses it for pure, private leisure.

The admins are principled Marxists so they wouldn’t sell out or concede without a fight.

There used to be a linux repo for installing teams but they recently removed it. Now you’re forced to use the shitty excuse of a PWA.

You can contribute monetarily, check https://join-lemmy.org

So for how long could they have been doing it?

Semantic Scholar, maybe ResearchGate? Academia.edu ??

Make sure to look at their T&C and privacy policy.

I’ve been using their service for two years now. It’s open source and encrypted, and the upload speeds exponentially improved.

Works fine for me. You can open an issue on Github.

Throwback to when they announced releasing a simple phone. Fun times.

The existence of lemmy.world which you’re part of, proves that lemmy tolerates right-wing instances if you ask me.

Make use of the decentralized nature of lemmy, the devs won’t knock at your door for creating or posting on right-wing instances.

No, I am not the dev. Perhaps I should’ve clarified this.

I’m afraid this is not an ebook reader, but a book tracker.

This is an offline tracker, so it doesn’t compare per se. There were talks about integrating bookwyrm into the app, but as of now there is no public API.

This project was actually my exit way from Goodreads. Unlike another commenter, I found virtually no issue with searching for books in European languages. All the statistics which GR offers are available, and you can easily import your books to the app. And of course, no ads, zero trackers and open source.

The only caveat is the social aspect, since this is an offline tracker.

Edit: If you have any concerns, hop on the matrix community where the dev is active.

Out of interest, how often do you find issues looking for books on OpenLibrary?

Neat! Thank you for sharing.
