  • Why does the Android version of Jerboa not send me notifications whenever I get a reply?
  • Blackfeathr Blackfeathr 1y ago 100%

    I wondered that as well but assumed it was because this app is still in Alpha status. I'm surprised they haven't added it in yet.

    Also it's weird that your notifications in-app don't switch to "read" status unless you reply. Sometimes I have nothing to say to someone who replied to me and the notifications are piling up lol

  • No push notifications?
  • Blackfeathr Blackfeathr 1y ago 100%

    This would be a nice feature. I'd request, though, that to whomever is going to work on notifications please don't bundle legitimate message alerts with "hey, use the app" notifications because it is the douchiest thing ever to do (looking at you Snapchat).

  • What happens to downvotes when instances have different policies?
  • Blackfeathr Blackfeathr 1y ago 100%

    Is there a reason why the notification can only happen once? Why can't it continue to update or just keep trying until a connection is established? Genuinely curious, I know next to nothing about this kind of internet structure.

    To me it's like looking at the sun. You can for a little while but everything is screaming that this is bad for you and to stop.

    To me this is like watching a rat and a cockroach fight. You hate em both, and you want neither to win, but you just hope that the winner will be hurt really badly.

    Privacy-focused alternatives to duckduckgo (ddg)?
  • Blackfeathr Blackfeathr 1y ago 100%

    DDG isn't perfect by a long shot, but it's still leagues better than google. I think SEO overall has taken a nosedive in recent years, especially with AI written content muddying the waters. Unfortunately I do not know of an alternative that's better than either.

    As a trucking dispatcher I have relied more on Bing Maps because they are more updated than Google maps sometimes. Google maps is almost impossible to search for a specific thing when you're in a pinch, because there will be an ad for a competitor at the top of the list and you can easily be misled if you are in a rush. Happened to my bf a few weeks ago when he was searching for the closest UPS (near closing time) and inadvertently drove to a FedEx because it was the ad at the top of the search results. By the time he realized his mistake the UPS was closed. Fuck Google.

    No, not at all. Just that there probably won't be any more Goat Simulator.

  • Call blocker
  • Blackfeathr Blackfeathr 1y ago 100%

    I'm wondering about this too, and kind of vainly hoping for one that will prevent them from leaving voicemails.

    Because that's how these spam callers advertise now.

    I tried out my phone's built in spam blocking feature this past month but it only blocks the call, it'll keep it from ringing but these fuckers automatically leave a voicemail that in order to clear out of my inbox I have to be forced to listen to the first few seconds of "Hi! Did you know Comcast Xfinity has all the best blahblahblah..." before I can mash the number 7 to delete it. It's happened twice in my 1 month trial run of using the phone's built in defenses.

    That's how they're advertising, through non consensual force. If they can't get you through the TV, or an internet ad, they're going to forcefeed it to you through your own voicemail.

    I'll be damned if I'm going to be forcefed an ad.

    So I went back to my usual practice of answering an unknown caller with silence. After 10 seconds of silence, I end the call. Keeps them from leaving ad voicemails. Fuckers can eat my entire ass and die.

  • Does Jerboa have support for notifications on Android?
  • Blackfeathr Blackfeathr 1y ago 100%

    I was wondering that too. I was under the impression that Jerboas notification option in settings was push notifications but I think I might be mistaken. Might just be notifications within the app?

    That's a real shame they owned Coffee Stain, I liked Goat Simulator.

    At first it was both, couldn't upvote on the browser or Jerboa. Since this afternoon though I haven't been getting a timeout error on Jerboa.

    Edit: nevermind it's happening again. Maybe it's happening due to server load?
