Entertainment@beehaw.org•Which Streaming App is Best for Free Movies and Dramas?
0·3 days agoI’ve never used Cinema APK so I can’t give a comparison. You could try Tubi or Pluto TV.

Chat@beehaw.org•WFH ended and so has my career. Dunno what to do with my life now.English
0·4 days agoLots of good advice in this thread so far. I just wanted to say that this is only a temporary situation and you will get through to the other side. From what you’ve shared I believe that you have more strength than you realize. Dig deep and tap into it. Good luck and take care.

U.S. News@beehaw.org•Two US national guard soldiers shot and suspect in custody in Washington DC
0·9 days agoIMO, it was just a matter of time before something like this happened. I wonder what incredible horseshit MAGA will respond with.
I’m very sorry to hear about your friend. The UN Commission of Inquiry holds Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu directly responsible for ordering acts that constitute war crimes, crimes against humanity, and the crime of genocide. Let’s hope that he faces real justice some day.

Name-calling is NOT nice so I’ve removed your comment. Consider this a warning.

Technology@beehaw.org•Long-time iOS user considering switch to Android - Need advice on $1000 flagships
0·1 month agoTheir software is getting less stable with each release, while the amount of crammed in features is going up.
I agree that you may be having this personal experience. On the other hand, I am not and have been using iOS for many years. The difference could be that I intentionally stay very informed about iOS.
I, personally, will not throw the baby out with the bathwater.
However, if you believe that you will have better experiences using Android, then please make the switch.
Back in 2007 (After many years of making a career out of using Microsoft/Windows products) I started using Linux and MacOS/iOS exclusively and have never looked back.
I have very little experience and/or knowledge of Android. So, I can’t comment on that.

Like Twitter and Mastodon, it’s a micro-blogging platform. You could use it like I do which is just to read specific subjects. If you want to use it in more of a social way, then I couldn’t advise you on that since I don’t use it in that way.
However, it may just take time getting used to how it’s laid out as opposed to a link aggregator such as Beehaw.
I feel like I need to create a new user and start over.
That may be easier for you and you’re welcome.
Google’s “Discovery” feed
Did you mean Bluesky’s?
I haven’t had a lot of success with the discovery feed. You could try a third party app such as Skeets.
