At one time, the bank that i used decided to made an app, and they demand Location, Camera, Contact, Files, Microphone, and SMS, in which they will ask for all of it from the get go and not allowing either one of it will send you in a loop, unable to use the app at all. I bail immediately and continue to use the website.
As for the scariest one, camera. They can see where you are and what your surrounding like if they demand “always allow”.
At that point, you need to live dangerously and just yank it.
Hmm yes, genocide denial and deny having a fight in the comment as “nothing else”.
OP can’t let it rest lol.
More like Windows user have games.
So sad and cruel :(
Ye, i browse by All
It’s hard to build a community when you get random downvote out of nowhere without explanation. You might have easy time to ignore it, but not everyone does.
So it doesn’t shows up on All
We’re just trying to build an active community here, nothing else, really.
Also you made me realise i have 5.5k comment, seems like i’m a bit chronically online :/
Yeah, lemmy suffered from this too, SEO is completely neglected when picking name.
What would change: They now have 5billions
Why: you gave them.
Am from Malaysia and since the road and street is named using local language(bahasa malaysia), google now read out the full road name in terrible accent and pronunciation it took 3 or 4 times longer to finish an instruction readout, which in some case you will miss your turn. The instruction sometime couldn’t even fit on the UI because the road name is just so long. It also read out which lane you should take just for turning. Before the change i can easily navigate the confusing city of Kuala Lumpur because the instruction is clear and concise, now i have to fight with the instruction because 3rd quarter of the time it’s a language i can’t recognise due to the terrible pronunciation.
Ohh did i mention the ads? They found a way to sneak ads into navigation. Now if you want to turn left 500m ahead, instead of telling you “turn left” , they will tell you to turn left after “xyz shop”. Now you will be looking for that shop instead of turn left. The app is maintained by techbros that never drive
That’s probably just Lemmy active user you’ve heard, as the majority of user for fediverse is from mastodon. 12m is total user for the whole fediverse, active user is around 1m.

Yes, lithium ion battery, if damaged or installed incorrectly, might explode while in use.
Recall, because it’s definitely coming back.
I use VPN, can’t be bothered with DNS anymore because i know they will pull this move.
Also it’s really just a mask for easier censorship, as Malaysia had tried it before, censoring site like news site that report on government scandals, news site that focus on LGBT reporting, Fanfic, Medium, and even Steam.
After the incident they did made some change to only ask permission for the appropriate function and can allow “while in use”, and gotten rid of location permission altogether, but that incident kinda open my eye on cybersecurity and privacy, because if bank can hire subpar dev for such an important app, then all those gadget with IoT will not have top-notched dev doing their app. I’d rather be a luddite than lose anything important.
