    Oh it's really easy to fingerprint a device on Android so I'm 99% sure they are fingerprinting you in one way or another. But this seems to be an overly complicated way of doing it. It does really just seem like an unintentional design flaw.

    There are western style malls in China that you do not haggle in. There are also big brand stores. It's only really small malls and like street vendors where haggle and only for specific types of items usually. Like you don't haggle food for instance.

    That being said, you do haggle a lot especially when shopping at mom and pop (usually clothing) stores.

    I probably experienced disco Elysium differently from the average player so maybe my experience might be useful?

    I'm not super big into RPGs that emphasize on the RP part and I'm also not super big into reading massive a walls of text. The uncut version is at least voiced but it's way too slow so I ended up turning it off at some point because the talking was distracting me from skimming and skipping.

    I will admit I also didn't "get" the game for like 70% of it. The game was text heavy to begin with but I played a max encyclopedia character first which just added even more text. Then on top of this I played the game like I do other games which is to exhaust all dialog options which makes it even longer (and yes I know this can be unoptimal but part of the fun for me exhausting the options was also to see how different options screwed me over).

    I think at some points I just started skimming the text and advancing just to move the plot or subplot along because at times it really does feel like the plot is just not moving at all.

    In retrospect this actually worked really well for me. Did I know everything by the end of the game? Probably not but I was actually able to complete the game which I don't think I would have had I not just started skipping text.

    Then I played through the game 4 more times.

    The funny thing is I probably got more enjoyment out of the game on my second play through. The first playthrough got me immersed into the world just enough to appreciate the writing on the second play through. I also figured out how to "approach the game better" after completing it once. I was min maxing my first playthrough and subsequent playthroughs allowed me to chill a bit on that front. Although I did do one play through super min maxed just for fun.

    Tl;dr I sort of speed ran the game on my first attempt then I played it again 4 more times and I ended up enjoying the game a ton.

    I think you might have misread the article (or maybe I have?). I think the article is saying that other people (a 3rd party that is not Meta) can use some metadata clues to puzzle out which OS a user is using WhatsApp from. The article then says this is bad because an attack can target specific OSes or tailor their attack to the user's OS. Eg. Hacker has an evil link that abuses an exploit on Android only. They can figure out who is signed into WhatsApp on android and only send those people the evil link.

    Welcome to v1.43.0. This release adds a feature I've thought about since the start of the project but just never implemented: account creation! In v1.43.0 new users to Lemmy will be able to go through the entire account creation process (minus email verification) from the app. The hope with this feature is that it will help reduce Lemmy's sign up friction even further, especially for Summit users. **Full changelog** - Added a create account option to the sign in screen. - Changed the quote button when creating a comment. If text is selected from the "replying to" box when the quote button is tapped, that text will automatically be populated within the quote block. - Fixed a crash that occurs when images are uploaded using Imgur. - Fixed a bug where read posts appear as unread if a post is hidden. - Fixed an issue where the title of a post is not shown in the detailed view. - Improved the current community UI - Updated the community icons across the app to be more consistent. The app will use auto-generated community icons for communities without icons. - Fixed a bug where the bottom nav bar will disappear if you open an inbox item and then go back. **Update** Bumped to v1.43.1 to resolve a minor issue with the build. **Update 2** Bumped to v1.43.2 to address some issues and also add some minor improvements. - Refreshed the design of the community selector sheet. - Updated the community icons across the app to be more consistent. The app will use auto-generated community icons for communities without icons. - Fixed a bug where the bottom nav bar will disappear if you open an inbox item and then go back.

    I have some plans for v1.43 that I will add here later. For now, I'm just going to be doing some quick bug fixes. I've been fairly busy in my personal life outside of work so I haven't had as much time to work on Summit. Progress is still being made, just slightly slower. I will also be going on vacation from the beginning of October. My extreme stretch goal would be to release v1.43 well before I go on vacation so I have some time to polish the release before I'm on vacation but we shall see if that's feasible. **Changes so far** - Fixed a crash that occurs when images are uploaded using Imgur. - Fixed a bug where read posts appear as unread if a post is hidden. - Changed the quote button when creating a comment. If text is selected from the "replying to" box when the quote button is tapped, that text will automatically be populated within the quote block. - Fixed an issue where the title of a post is not shown in the detailed view. **Update** Whoops I accidentally put [Release] in the title. This has been corrected.

    Last release added some features I wanted in the app. So to balance it out, this release will be focused on adding features users want. I got a large influx of feature requests which is great. Since there are so many feature requests I am going to break this release into multiple smaller parts. This way I can push out new features as they are implemented instead of doing a massive release all at once. **Full changelog** - Added a setting to control whether videos should auto-play. Default true. - Added new comment count to posts. - Added a view to the post screen if there are no comments. - Added a setting to enable uploading images to Imgur. - Added a setting to control how many animations are enabled within the app - Added a setting to adjust the caching policy for the app. The options are aggressive, moderate (default), lite and minimum. Aggressive will cause the cache to be used more often resulting in better performance but things might be stale. Minimum will greatly reduce what is cached, reducing performance but ensuring things are up to date. - Added a button to view the browsing history in the history settings screen. - Changed the behavior of the navigation menu. If a navigation menu item is currently selected and it is tapped, the app will navigate you to the "home page" of that navigation item. - Changed the style of read posts to dim the entire post item. This behavior can be changed in settings. - Changed notification behavior so that when a notification is tapped, the inbox screen will auto-refresh unread messages. - Changed the browsing history screen to open pages within itself instead of within home. Eg. if you tap on a post in the history screen, the post will now open in the history screen. This makes the behavior more consistent with other screens such as inbox or saved. - Fixed several bugs related to the compose post screen. - Fixed a bug where the create post screen mistakenly only shows comment drafts instead of post drafts. - Fixed a bug where the loading indicator is not shown when comments are still loading. - Fixed a bug where the imageviewer will appear unresponsive if the user leaves the app and then comes back. - Fixed a bug where tapping on a notification item will create a weird back stack state. This fix will make navigation more intuitive. - Fixed a bug where the inbox screen will automatically open an inbox item every time it's opened if a notification was tapped before. - Fixed a bug where tapping on a notification will cause the inbox screen to be stuck in a weird state where certain actions will be ignored/do nothing. - Fixed several crashes - Fixed a bug where errors are cut off or not centered properly. **v1.42.1** - Added a setting to enable uploading images to Imgur. - Fixed a bug where the loading indicator is not shown when comments are still loading. - Added a setting to control how many animations are enabled within the app **v1.42.2** - Fixed a bug where posts will become unread if the app is closed and opened again. - Fixed a bug introduced by the animation setting change. When expanding a post in the community post feed screen, sometimes the post will not expand. **v1.42.3** - Fixed a bug where post thumbnails will disappear sometimes when the post is tapped. - Fixed a bug where the imageviewer will appear unresponsive if the user leaves the app and then comes back. **v1.42.4** - Fixed a bug in the post list where the content will disappear when tapped. This only affects the full content layout. **v1.42.5** - Fixed a bug where tapping on a notification item will create a weird back stack state. This fix will make navigation more intuitive. - Fixed a bug where the inbox screen will automatically open an inbox item every time it's opened if a notification was tapped before. - Fixed a bug where tapping on a notification will cause the inbox screen to be stuck in a weird state where certain actions will be ignored/do nothing. - Changed notification behavior so that when a notification is tapped, the inbox screen will auto-refresh unread messages. - Added a button to view the browsing history in the history settings screen. - Changed the browsing history screen to open pages within itself instead of within home. Eg. if you tap on a post in the history screen, the post will now open in the history screen. This makes the behavior more consistent with other screens such as inbox or saved. - Added a setting to adjust the caching policy for the app. The options are aggressive, moderate (default), lite and minimum. Aggressive will cause the cache to be used more often resulting in better performance but things might be stale. Minimum will greatly reduce what is cached, reducing performance but ensuring things are up to date. - Fixed several crashes **v1.42.6** - Fixed a bug where errors are cut off or not centered properly. **v1.42.7** - Fixed a bug where importing settings can cause crashes. - Tighten up some margins/padding. - Added a setting to enable condensed style for comment headers. **v1.42.8** - Changed spoiler tags to make the space between `:::` and `spoiler` optional. **Update** v1.42.1 is being release at the time of writing (9/2/2024). It adds more user requested features. **Update 2** v1.42.2 is released to address a bug in v1.42.1. **Update 3** I'm going to be wrapping up on community suggestions work at the end of this weekend. I will try to implement as many of the remaining suggestions as I can however it's unlikely I will be able to implement all of them. If I cannot implement your suggestion in time, I will implement your suggestion in a future release. It just means that your suggestion might not be prioritized. The reason why I am doing this is so that I can prioritize implementing other features that I think would improve the app. As the community suggestions release wraps up I want to thank everyone who shared their suggestions during the release. **Update 4** Released v1.42.5 which contains the last of the user requested features I will implement for this release. **Update 5** Fixed some bugs and doing another release. **Update 6** Fixing more bugs. - Fixed a bug where importing settings can cause crashes. - Tighten up some margins/padding. - Added a setting to enable condensed style for comment headers. **Update 7** Fixing more issues. - The app always assumed that spoiler tags had to start with `::: spoiler`, however I tested this on the website and actually the space between `:::` and `spoiler` is optional. Eg. the website renders `:::spoiler` as a spoiler block. So for parity, I am changing the logic in the app to also allow `:::spoiler`.

    I'm going to be implementing more user requests. If you have any leave them in the comments. Changes so far: - Changed the behavior of the navigation menu. If a navigation menu item is currently selected and it is tapped, the app will navigate you to the "home page" of that navigation item. - Fixed several bugs related to the compose post screen. - Fixed a bug where the create post screen mistakenly only shows comment drafts instead of post drafts. - Changed the style of read posts to dim the entire post item. This behavior can be changed in settings. - Added a setting to control whether videos should auto-play. Default true. - Added new comment count to posts. - Added a view to the post screen if there are no comments.

    Welcome to v1.41.0. This release adds a feature I've wanted for a while now (but likely no one else wanted). This release adds the ability to record an advanced screenshot. In some cases, posts and comments can contain animated GIFs. When taking screenshots of these, context may be lost because the GIF animation is removed. The record screenshot feature allows users to take a recording of a screenshot, preserving animated GIFs in posts or comments. The feature allows you to record a screenshot as either a GIF, MP4 or WEBM and contains a lot of configurable settings. Note that this feature currently does not work for videos (eg. MP4s) in posts because the video player renders these in a specialized way that cannot be captured by the method used by the app. **Full changelog** - Added a feature to "record" a screenshot as a video or GIF. - Added option to mark a post as read/unread in the post option's menu. - Changed long tap on the header, expand button or the side to expand actions as well. - Fixed a bug where links are invisible in conversations.

    So Summit for Lemmy already supports "advanced screenshots" letting you take screenshots of posts and comments with ease, allowing you to include any and as many comments as you want. However this doesn't work as well if the post or comments have animated GIFs in them. I'm working on a feature that will allow you to take an "advanced screenshot" but as a GIF so you can capture any video or GIF as well. **Changes so far** - Added a feature to "record" a screenshot as a video or GIF. - Fixed a bug where links are invisible in conversations. - Changed long tap on the header, expand button or the side to expand actions as well. - Added option to mark a post as read/unread in the post option's menu.

    The focus of this release is DMs. Direct messages have been difficult to manage and respond to in the past especially for message chains. This release cleans up the DM experience to make them much easier to use. **Full changelog** - Redesigned the DM experience. - Changed messages in the inbox. Messages sent by you will no longer show up in inbox. - Make it more obvious when loading in the inbox screen(s) - Changed the "Mark as read" gesture to toggle the read state of the post. Eg. if a post is read and the gesture "Mark as read" is performed, the post will be marked as unread. - Added a fade effect to the bottom screen when screens are stacked together. Eg. when viewing a post from the community feed. - When viewing a reply message in the inbox, added a button in the context section to make it easier to see the post of the reply. - Fixed a bug where the navigation bar does not highlight the correct item in certain cases. - Fixed a bug where the open link button is visible when no image is shown in the post list. - Fixed some bugs that occur when viewing a link to a Lemmy post of another instance. - Fixed some minor bugs with people search. **v1.40.1** There were some dependency issues so I had to do a version bump. There shouldn't be any changes from the base release though. **v1.40.2** - Fixed a bug where images are not shown/loaded within direct messages. - Added a full text editor to the send message input field. When sending a direct message, you will be able to tap on the full editor button to open the "advanced text editor" to make it easier to compose more complex messages. - Fixed a bug where the post in the "context" section of an inbox message would have a random amount of whitespace at the bottom.

    Making this post to track progress on the next release. Will decide on a title later. Changes so far: - Fixed a bug where the navigation bar does not highlight the correct item in certain cases. - Fixed a bug where the open link button is visible when no image is shown in the post list. - Changed messages in the inbox. Messages sent by you will no longer show up in inbox. - Fixed some bugs that occur when viewing a link to a Lemmy post of another instance. - Make it more obvious when loading in the inbox screen(s) - Changed the "Mark as read" gesture to toggle the read state of the post. Eg. if a post is read and the gesture "Mark as read" is performed, the post will be marked as unread. - Added a fade effect to the bottom screen when screens are stacked together. Eg. when viewing a post from the community feed. - Fixed some minor bugs with people search. - When viewing a reply message in the inbox, added a button in the context section to make it easier to see the post of the reply. - Redesigned the DM system in the app completely. **Update** With how the release is going it's seeming very likely this release will focus on cleaning up the DM experience. The current DM experience is pretty bad. Messages are littered everywhere and it's very difficult to follow a message chain. This wasn't high priority since it was assumed most users are not using DMs. However as other parts of the app becomes polished, DMs are suddenly the weakest part of the app. The current minimum plan is to group DMs with individuals together into chains at the very least. Other improvements are still up in the air. Unfortunately, designs of the DMs will probably be limited to what the Lemmy API can provide. For instance, I was exploring an email like approach where one item is shown per message thread however there is currently no API that returns only top level message threads. Instead you can only get individual messages. Of course we can still implement this on the client however it can lead to an excessive amount of network calls. As an example, imagine a scenario where user A and B exchange a lot of message. Let's say they exchanged 1000 messages. Let's say the client is configured to fetch 50 messages at a time. Given this, if the user navigates to the messages screen the client will fetch 50 messages. The client will then group all 50 messages as a conversation between A and B. However since this is just one conversation, the client will need to fetch more messages to make sure there aren't any other conversations. This will repeat until all 1000 messages have been fetched. At this point the client is finally sure there are no other conversations and it will stop. This means that the client will need to make 20 network calls in order to load the messages screen which is pretty costly. There are some solutions but they all vary in effort or usability. The easiest solution is to not collapse conversations in the messages screen. The downside here is usability as it would be difficult to look for specific conversations. The highest effort solution would be to group all messages on the messages screen and build a database on the client side that tracks all messages. By doing so, the first time messages are loaded might still be costly but subsequent refreshes should be relatively fast. I'm still mulling over what to do here. **Update 2** I love you guys so I'm going to implement the best possible DM experience with no cut corners. It's going to take some time though. **Update 3** I think I can wrap this update up sometime this weekend. I think a release is possible by Monday (Aug, 19) if not earlier.

    This update focuses on general app improvements and bug fixes. **Full changelog** - Added new image loading animation. - Improved styling on collapsed comments. Voting on a collapsed comment will update the score and cause the score color to change. - Fixed many bugs with the layout "list with cards". Specifically it was missing the voting buttons and the comments counter. This has been added. Several other fixes has also been applied for this layout. - Fixed a bug where the header text of a post would be cut off when using certain layouts. - Fixed a bug where the link icon would appear on a post even if the post does not contain a link. - Fixed a bug where paragraphs within a spoiler block may not be correctly formatted. - Support subscripts in markdown (for~example~) - Fixed a bug where opening. closing and opening the same post will cause the post to not be highlighted when the post is closed. - Fixed a bug where sometimes you can drag a blank window from the right side of the screen. - Fixed a bug where the progress bar when loading videos does not conform to the app theme.
