  • “It’s a deck of playing cards. How much more fun can it be, compared to the 50+ other solitaire games? And why would I want to play poker by myself?”

    So I got a bit of money leftover after bills, and decided to get it anyway cause I haven’t played anything fun this year. Went in blind without reading or watching any reviews.

    Turns out it’s NOT just your standard deck of playing cards. You can do all sorts of crazy things to your deck. Like playing illegal hands such as five-of-a-kind, or a flush house. It’s a lot of fun.



  • Oh hey. Wasn’t expecting you to pop up! Yeah, sorry, my rant wasn’t specific to Voyager (in fact, thank you for being one of the few allowing hiding vote buttons). I actually use Voyager on my larger devices.

    On my tiny phone though, a few things stand out:

    • Large padding between posts. Should probably scale with font size (or let users specify)
    • Smallest font size could be smaller.
    • No way to hide top & bottom bar (Sync hides them on scroll)

    Might dump then on GitHub when I have the time. But if someone else redding this has the free time, feel free to do so :)

    As much as I love Voyager, I’m a compact post list kind of guy. And nothing beats Sync’s post density and configurability.

    All I need is a title, the community it’s on, # of comments, and a small thumbnail. If I need anything else, I’ll click on the post.

    Why would I want an up/down vote button on a compact list? Who upvotes something just from the title??



  • The way I normally do it is the following. Strip the sleeve further back than you need (say, an inch). Untwist the 8 cores and separate them.

    Arrange them in the right order (the extra length makes this easy) Flatten, pack them together, and pinch with your thumb and forefinger near the base.

    Without letting go of the pinch, use your free hand to cut them to the correct length. Now that you have them flat between your fingers in the right order, it should be pretty straightforward to slide them into the connector.
