Not if they’re the kind of users my parents are. An update moves a button from the bottom-left to the bottom-right and suddenly “the app you gave me is broken again”.
Also, don’t sneak-change things on other people’s phones.

@ZDL is a bot account?
Set up a global bounty GoFundMe that anyone can contribute to anonymously.
It keeps an up-to-date ranking of everyone worth over 1 billion, and pays out to anyone who removes someone from the list.
Slight tangent: Would blocking still work if they tried to send nudes via Snapchat?
I’m not “asking for a friend,” I’m just curious how effective this feature could possibly be.
I think our skill to process information has natural limits, which were overwhelmed decades ago by the social media firehose and a breakdown of information-filtering infrastructure.
an average edition of a newspaper the size of The Times already contains more information about the world than a person in the 17th Century was likely to come across in a lifetime. (Wurman, Information Anxiety)
That was back in 1989. We’re now 30 years later with an internet supercharged by predatory algorithms.
And we can’t filter all of it without either completely withdrawing from the world entirely or spending months learning why and how to filter it ourselves.
We have had information overload in some form or another since the 1500s. What is changing now is the filters we use for the most of the 1500 period are breaking, and designing new filters doesn’t mean simply updating the old filters. They have broken for structural reasons, not for service reasons. (Shirky, It’s Not Information Overload. It’s Filter Failure)
Why not combine a good image storage service with a easy-to-search database?
I don’t need this kind of thing, so I can’t give great suggestions, but I’ve been told catbox.me is a good provider and a lot of people use Notion.

I’ve always liked threadiverse, since it describes what’s unique about this aspect of the Fediverse.
Something like a removable “mobile chip” for a laptop could address this problem. Framework could probably pull it off, but I don’t know if the market incentives it.
I would bury a bunch of identical time capsules all over the world, each with the location of the other time capsules and a detailed timeline of increasingly terrible global events.
The later it’s dug up, the more credible it’ll be.
I see Ash, I upvote.
Will you publish the aggregate results in any way?
How do you “do” c/savedyouaclick? I’ve summarized links in a comment before, but I don’t know what would be the point of also mentioning c/savedyouaclick when I do that.
They are, however, more likely to call the cops to report a “suspicious person” “loitering” around the neighborhood.
Then couch-hunting turns into threading the needle on a law enforcement interaction on eggshells, because maybe the officers who pull up are scared of you and have received more “warrior” training than de-escalation training.
I appreciate this just as an earnest, non-aggro response.
This seems like a great way to get shot if you don’t look like the right kind of person.
The closest I’ve seen is those videos where they have to censor it and send you to Patreon for the full version.
