  • I think the T2 was to insinuate that it was “Twitter 2”. I didn’t understand the rebrand, because, even though it’s been a few years, Pebble to me is still associated with the smart watch.

    I actually signed up and used it a little, but I put up a funny post with a Corvette that had a wheel off sitting on wood blocks with the caption, “When Rednecks get Corvettes! 🤣” It was a stupid little joke, but my post was flagged as offensive and removed. At that point I made one more post explaining what had happened, and that I was going to be leaving the platform. I left the post up for a couple of weeks and then deleted my account. If that was considered offensive, my sarcastic self didn’t stand a chance on that platform.

    I’m not surprised they didn’t get any traction.









  • I used Apollo on iOS. It wasn’t just the way it looked, and not just the way it worked, but it was the tiny things that made it superior. For example, one thing that I loved and haven’t seen on any other app is the way that it handled videos. While the video was playing you could put your finger on it and scrub it back and forth to fast forward/rewind. So intuitive, but I don’t know of another app - Reddit or Lemmy - that has that.
