I thought I would just chime in here if I am allowed. I looked for an official Facebook lemmy but couldn’t find one.

I have become a bit satisfied with Facebook as of late. They used to allow tools for embedding social pages into private websites and whilst technically they still do their level of support for such seems to have plummeted to non existent. I don’t know if that is a conscious effort by Meta to close down forum support or whether it is because they are moving more towards a “pay to play” business model. This in, my opinion, suddenly erects a huge barrier to entry, to even get started developing with their platform. It would seem to me it would have been more prudent, as a business model, to provide free support to get started but start charging when their products are established or at least have some way to talk to a support person.

What I am saying, in a roundabout way, is maybe the world is ready for a decent alternative, even in the business space, and Facebook no longer seems to be it. I really can’t understand how their support has collapsed so badly for developers.

The update I think was to Android 13

That sounds so StackOverflow

That’s when I go back to ChatGPT or Google Bard. It’s helped me with problems and less aggravation than SO

AI exists because not everyone frequents a low toxicity forum like Lemmy.

I think SO has had people hallucinating for some time but it wasn’t AI driven

Like toxic mods

Probably the same data that ChatGPT or Google Bard has been trained on which to me makes the distinction moot

Agreed. I got ChatGPT to convert python code to JavaScript and I got a buggy code sample back with new bugs.

I understand Google and Microsoft getting into it as it makes sense as a “better” Google search but for StackOverflow that sounds like they have just given up on their current platform.

I tried postman and came to the same conclusion as you. I couldn’t figure it out at all. I downloaded an app for android called “ApI Tester”. I might try out ThunderClient, which others have suggested, if it works on Linux.

I thought Erlang superceded it?

I like the idea of running a home media server. Then I could watch youtube videos without waiting for it to download fully over a slow internet. However I would probably need a step by step guide to setting one up. Currently I run Fedora 37 linux. Maybe if there are Docker installs ?
