Generally, the reasons for a phone number are:

If you don’t want to use your number then consider a pre-pay sim. Depending what country you are in this will cost pennies per year.

I would suggest something like ProtonMail or most paid email services won’t require a number.

Don’t mean this rudely, struggling to find a way that doesn’t sound condescending because I know things can be different in different regions. Didn’t realise that still happened.

I hope so, good luck

In my experience all of this has been done wirelessly for several years.

The risk of malware means you aren’t allowed to plug in sticks. For business use you share a document or wirelessly connect to a display.

In fact our local library didn’t USB sticks eight years ago when I was researching our family tree.

Mould eats the fibres and dye, so it might be a permanent change I’m afraid. There are specialist mould removers but they might bleach coloured fabric.

An interesting point not touched upon is that the types of people using USB sticks has changed. Because the use of technology filters down from tech savvy, to general population, to people late to the scene or can’t change.

We are in that last stage now. They are buying by price and so easier to take advantage of.

But the UI hasn’t been finalised yet?

I’m uncertain about this. It doesn’t seem much different than things like Inoreader and seems to lack as comprehensive a search.

Is there any news on Liftoff! I can see the other mods haven’t posted in at least five months.

As I understand it, Lemmy doesn’t support notifications through the api and the devs are resistant So apps have to take one of two routes either constantly polling individual servers or installing a service on the phone (which causes battery issues on Android or to get shut down on iOS)

I hope notifications will be supported from the outset.

Thank you, to a non-developer eye that doesn’t look any different to Lemmy.

Please are you able to explain why sublinks is better and what the extra features are?
