Re: Delete unused MySQL indexes Programming Databases by Dani As some general background, that's the syntax to delete an index, of course, but MySQL knows if an index is used because, well, it's the one that uses it, and it tracks that stuff internally.

Do you build mobile apps with a cross‑platform framework or only stick to native Android/iOS? And where do you usually find your freelance projects? I stick to native Android.

I couldn't even tell you which servers I had accounts on. Re: Hello, I'm Ulf Dittmer Community Center Say Hello! by Dani A blast from the past? Didn't Mastodon first gain popularity around 2020ish? When I think of a blast from the past, I think of AOL Instant Messenger and MySpace. Re: Hello, I'm Ulf Dittmer Community Center Say Hello! by Ulfson Mastodon is pretty much the only social network I'm on these days (except for nebenan.de, which is similar to Nextdoor, but much more popular here in Germany).

What’s the difference? Re: Hello, I'm Ulf Dittmer Community Center Say Hello! by trcooke Fair point.
