Can you maybe clarify what you mean with “work”? What are you trying to achieve by significantly exceeding any supplemental recommendation that I’ve ever heard of?

Are you worried, that your Vitamin D3 levels are significantly too low, because you’re suffering e.g. from SAD, another mood- or an autoimmune disorder?

Talk to your doctor, get your levels checked, follow their advice and take the dose they recommend for the time they recommend!

Are you planning to relocate to a cave? Will you never see the sun again?

Talk to a medical professional about that plan, take whatever supplements they recommend for as long as they recommend them.

Are you living in a cold and dark country like Sweden? Then that country probably has safe guidelines you can follow. If you’re still worried or you are experiencing any symptoms that might be related to low Vitamin D3 levels, talk to a medical professional!

Why are you trying to exceed any recommended dosage by the factor of 10? Where did you get that number in the first place?

I believe that number is still low enough to not pose any immediate risk in the short or mid term. Your doctor might even agree that high supplementation is necessary to get your level up.

As a long term plan and without knowing your actual levels, it’s just stupid: At best it does nothing but waste your money on needless supplements. At worst it increases the risks that come with overdosing on Vitamin D3.

As an AI language model, I concur with this assessment.

“Arguing with an idiot is like playing chess with a pigeon. It’ll just knock over all the pieces, shit on the board, and strut about like it’s won.”

The ball gag is for the “Ommms” not to bother the neighbors …

A new scaled sort option has been added. This sort is identical to the Hot sort, but also takes into account the number of each community’s active monthly users, and so helps to boost posts from less active communities to the top.

This is such a vital change and should be the default. Lemmy is currently effectively suffocating and killing its small communities and stunting its own growth due to its complete inability to surface their content. No scaled sorting, no “community bundling” - this is an important step in the right direction but there’s likely a lot more work needed to solve this problem.

Unlike e.g. vitamin C, excess vitamin D isn’t really excreted. It’s stored long term and eventually causes hypercalcemia and kidney stones if persistently supplemented at high doses over a long time. OP’s dosage is above the “sensible if you never see the sun” range but not quite in the “dangerously excessive” range.

Yes, Drillisch is one of the companies currently simply ignoring the law. They will probably continue to do so until they get successfully sued and/or fined into compliance.

Thanks. Looks like Boost still has some kinks, I got timeout messages for the first two attempts and they weren’t shown to me either.

Damn, thanks for the info. I used Boost, it told me it failed/timed out the first two times and only displayed the third, successful, attempt.

It was made illegal in the EU years ago.

The rule is pretty simple: you have to be able to cancel a subscription the same way you signed up for it. If you used the Internet to sign up there better be a fucking button that allows you to cancel.

I mean, this is Lemmy, we’re barely interacting here.

Boost’s permission screen looks identical. Google AdMob’s SDK doesn’t need any extra permissions, Google made sure of that.

As far as I remember, Sync uses the same SDK for its ads. The fact that there’s a shit storm against Boost for this is totally insane.

He’s not the one collecting the data, receiving the data, or even choosing what data is collected. How the fuck can he be “more transparent” with this data? It’s Google standard AdMob SDK used by the vast majority of Android-Apps showing ads. The SDK isn’t initialized in the paid version.

Literally, the only complaint I’m having here is that buying the Ad-Free version was a little too hard to find. A pop-up “hey, would you like ads or pay for this app” would have allowed me to pay for it faster.

This is the fastest I ever paid for an app. This has always been my favorite and one of my most used apps.

I know that the Lemmy user base is much smaller than Reddit’s and I’m so thankful that Rubén kept the price low and didn’t start charging triple digits like a certain other Reddit-turned-Lemmy-app to compensate. I also launched the rocket and still feel like I got a great deal.

I sincerely hope this venture will still be profitable and worth Rubén’s time and effort, I’ll keep launching the ticket on occasion to do my part that will be.

Exactly. There is no real fix for this other than to open YouTube links externally as the default and only option.

It’s not a bug, that’s just where the visible spectrum ends. There’s a bunch of different shades of ultraviolet following that purple line. Just don’t read far enough down a comment chain to stare at the gamma-ray-colored ones.
