Privacy / Browsers on Android - Lemmy.World
Chromium (Cromite) - no sync of any kind. Otherwise, no complaints except the
menu item bloat. FF Stable - no about:config, comes with a ton of things that
need turned off. FF Beta/Nightly/Mull - has FFSync, but missing Chrome’s
rotate-to-fullscreen functionality. All Android Browsers - too many menu items.
FF: Customize, What’s New, Help, Addons should all be under Settings. Chromium
also has full menu that mostly is never used. View Source on a mobile
browser…really why? It doesnt make much sense to have a movable toolbar if you
still have to use both hands to get to the bookmarks button/menu. I’d be happy
with either an organized, uncluttered menu, or one where certain items could be
hidden/removed from the main menu. Brave - I wish I could stick with them.
Everything works and they have it all. Full non-Google sync, better video
playback control, nicer UI, dual toolbars. I just can’t with the way they
operate, adding bad features and then saying oops every time. How do we get the
perfect browser? In my mind, it looks like Cromite, has the internals of FF
(gecko engine), FOSS, can rotate the phone into full screen video, with sync
implemented. And of course all privacy settings setup like Mull. Anyone else
spot this unicorn?

If you’re seeing this for the first time, welcome! If you’ve been here since
July, welcome back! If you have friends still over on Reddit, please share this
community with them. Not only has /R/ made a third-party ad-free experience
impossible, the latest updates on the official app include more advertising and
data collection. Please, if you believe in the free exchange of ideas on the
internet, bring as many people to Lemmy as you can. “There’s no content here…”
Post something! Ask a question. Topic-related memes are okay. News, general
interest, and questions related to the fraternity are also allowed.
External Communication - Lemmy.world
This was a carryover from a comment made on reddit. We’re in the 21st century in
the digital, instant information age. Membership overall is in a slow but steady
decline. Combating that requires us to “get with the times” to a certain extent.
Email is not some passive, outdated, rarely checked form of communication. The
corporate world uses email extensively. I’ve sent 6 emails from my couch already
this morning, and I don’t go to work until early afternoon. We as a fraternity
need to do better if we want to continue.
Email: If your lodge has an email address, is it an active account that can be
checked by more than just the Secretary? Is your Secretary a tech-saavy brother,
or a PM with 50 years in? Can you allow that tech guy to serve as the point of
contact and coordinate with the Secty? Can that email account be set up to be
accessed or forwarded to multiple officers? Does that email account have
auto-response capability (We received your email, please be patient until our
Officer can reach out to you).? Websites: If your lodge is going to have a
website, it needs to be a friendly domain. Younger people know the difference
between “locallodge49.org [http://locallodge49.org]” and
“freewebsite.com/free/wedontknowwhatweredoing/lodge49.html
[http://freewebsite.com/free/wedontknowwhatweredoing/lodge49.html]” Edit to add:
website should have a mobile version/compatibility Those Grand Lodge or Lodge
finder websites with contact info from 2007 don’t help. Keep that info current.
It needs to be up to date regularly. Have an events calendar with your stated
schedule. Definitely needs a contact form that goes to the active email
discussed above. Doesn’t need to be extensive, but accurate and informative.
Same with FB Pages. Set up Messaging with an auto-response that directs the
prospect to your website or contact form. Lodges that go dark for the summer (or
whatever timeframe) should make that somewhat known. “We’re on our Summer Break
and return in the fall, expect a response in early September” would suffice if
communications aren’t replied to during that period. Just ideas, mostly a rant.

Mods, please don’t let this community turn into a lemmy support channel. There’s
probably 20 others.
Appendant Bodies - Lemmy.world
How many of you are in any Appendant bodies / side orders? How many of you
stayed Blue Lodge only? And why? Currently I am only involved in my local home
lodge. Eventually I will explore the Scottish Rite (NMJ USA).
Super Long Play - Lemmy.world
Back in my day, you had to know exactly how long, in minutes, three separate
movies were in length to see if they’d fit on one cassette. Recording VHS tapes
was a unknowingly wild time in human history.
A Chain of Events - Lemmy.world
What was the catalyst for the entire show? Was it the Brains, that attempted to
gain all knowledge in the universe? Which then motivated Nibbler to set up Fry
to be frozen?
View Subscribers in Community - Lemmy.world
Is there a button, or menu somewhere that allows a Community creator or mod to
view a list of subscribers? All I can see is the stats of how many, etc.
