  • I mostly used RiF, but installed the official app during a trip last year to do logistics with someone who was using the built in chat.

    I don’t tend to always have data on my phone, because WiFi is everywhere, and just add some when I’m going on a trip like this. I’d loaded up a fiver’s worth the morning we left, which usually sees me through an entire month in these situations.

    Woke up after the first night away to an alert that my data was all used up. And on further investigation, guess which app was the culprit? Just literally sitting there overnight while I was asleep, gobbling up a month’s worth of data to do god knows what.

    I uninstalled the app.









  • Coming at this from a slightly different angle, as I do use Instagram and it was responsible for helping my YT channel and therefore my business in general take off.

    I’m already on Mastodon, so would have no need to use this. However, I’ve really come to despise IG and find interacting with it to be more of a chore than anything. So an option for my friends and viewers from IG to communicate with me without me having to actually log in over there? I can just stay on Mastodon and run everything from one place? Sounds fine to me!

    (pending evidence of good faith as discussed elsewhere in thread)

    I may have accidentally stayed up all night to watch the meltdown and am now dead. Worth it to be there for the moment /r/funny went offline though (at like 5am, omg I am too old for this sort of thing!)

    Today is gonna be rough, I have to somehow perk up enough to record a YT video and seem like I’m happy about it.
