Back in my day we couldn’t walk or bike to the grocery store because the streets were so dangerously designed

Lemmy doesn’t have rate limiting for new comments? 🤔

It’s supposed to be getting better, but moving very slowly.

spoofing is pretty common still afaik.

I made a purchase on a sketchy site (during Covid when things were hard to find). A day or so later, some unauthorized transactions were made on my card. “Bank” called from actual number of my bank, to verify if I actually made the transactions. provided some of my personal information, transaction amount etc then asked to verify ssn. It was very convincing.

Luckily I refused because I know anyone can call you claiming to be any number, and I didn’t give out any info, and said I would call back that number (my bank).

Bank had no knowledge of a call.

15 minutes later, get real fraud department call from my bank. They just wanted to know if it was fraud or not and didn’t ask for any other info.

Moral of the story: if someone calls you, never give out personal info. Tell them you will call back if needed.

This wasn’t the result of US airdrops. Might want to read the article

“We are aware of reports of civilians killed as a result of humanitarian airdrops,” CENTCOM said. “We express sympathies to the families of those who were killed. Contrary to some reports, this was not the result of U.S. airdrops.”

That’s annoying. It works for me on android, and on iOS after upgrading to the version just released.

Upgrade to iOS 17.4 and report back

Are you using iOS? Update to 17.4.

There are absolutely reasons where a native app is worth it - I just don’t think building your own backend or not factors into that decision much.

Maybe the point you are trying to make, is when you have enough resources/large enough company, having duplicate teams for each native app isn’t that big of a deal? I agree financially, although is is harder to technically coordinate two teams with dual releases and implementing features twice, with twice the bugs, and it slows things down. (Maybe not a big deal to Bitwarden - their app featureset may be quite stable, IDK)

(Disclaimer - I’ve been on teams building kotlin/swift apps and also cross platform apps professionally, so this is my firsthand anecdotal experience.)

I don’t really see how developing a backend or not has anything to do with the decision to build a native or cross platform app.

But for Bitwarden, the interface is a much smaller proportion.

Can you elaborate on that? Bitwarden’s apps use Bitwarden public API, similar to how the Voyager app uses Lemmy’s public API.

Everyone on this thread: I can recognize native apps when I see them 😤

Native apps when they see them:

React Native is just a fancy web browser wrapping with some helper APIs.

React native is not a browser. It uses native components.

So you’re going to maintain two separate code bases with two separate teams as a knee jerk reaction to using one of the worst cross platform frameworks out there…

For an app that does little more than display encrypted text in a list…

weird flex but ok ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Sunshine soup!
