I mean, that's fair and i mostly agree, but i think it'll stay around (for the better or worse) as regular vr headsets have, with them also being (somewhat less) expensive and not that useful beyond a handful of niches. Although to a lesser extent since it'll be stuck inside apple's ecosystem.

Oh shit, so that's what it was...

Amen! I'm tired of these skinnies telling us what to do. Smh.

gonna downvote you, darn boob-lover

(If i'm not wrong, green-ish user here) When you click on "Communities" that'd be only the communities inside the instance that you made your account in.

I generally use this to look for specific communities: https://browse.feddit.de/ It should look across all lemmy instances to find the one you wanted

That does sounds nice, but on the other hand... i do like free stuff, instead of paying for subscriptions...

That does work to lower the strain in your eyes (coming a person that has had one in their phone for years now) but as far as i know, that is mostly meant to lower the amount of blue light coming from your display, as to not affect your sleep cycle

That's fair, i've had used a few apps for long periods of time with light mode and it is pretty nice, although i'm biased towards dark mode. Maybe it also has to do with the enviroment around you? Since a dark theme while outside in a sunny day would surely put some strain in your eyes?

(Not to be that guy, the post just got me curious about it, so i looked up some more details) (Also, i rant a bit, so feel free to not read this)

Although in the article i checked, the American Academy of Opthalmology (AAO) doesn't specifically mention Dark Mode as something that reduces or increases eye strain, it does mention that lowering the brightness (or setting dark mode in your devices) does lower the amount of blue light that the screen displays, allowing you to sleep better, by not confusing your brain into thinking that it's still daytime. (Feel free to correct me on this, other places i saw about this mostly cite anecdotes about how well it worked for them, regarding their sleep cycle.)

It does later say that one of the ways to possibly reduce eye strain when using a screen for a long time is by lowering the glare and brightness, by dimming the screen or the like.

So my take would be that maybe a full pitch black/AMOLED theme could start putting more strain into your eyes, the regular dark grey-ish should be right, but eyes differ from person to person so it'd boil down to: Find a middle ground that works for you and doesn't make your eyes hurt? (Also take some time to let your eyes rest, lookup the 20-20-20 rule in the 2nd article)

(Sorry about the wall of text, i might've gotten a bit too into this)

We've been living a lie...

Welp... time to move everything from authy to bitwarden looks like

Oh, didn't know bitwarden also managed 2FA, could've saved the space from using authy. Is that a (somewhat) new feature or is it just me being blind and missing it?
