I think it's mostly gaining market share cause Steam Deck

Insane that on iOS you can't just change the icons to whatever you want

Yea it's incomprehensible why people answer questions when they don't know the answer. Who are you helping?

The difference is massive to me but my parents struggle to notice, so it certainly varies person to person

Yep, I lost my communities when vlemmy shut down

Feels like one of the best value subscriptions to me?

I use YouTube more than most streaming services and it helps support creators

Only when I feel sick and am indoors

My impulse buy of expensive Focal headphones.

Initially regretted it but, after a year of using high-end headphones, you definitely appreciate the great comfort and sound-quality

I'm pretty techy and work at a tech retailer but, I'm a Classical Music major and teach piano

Pixel 7 Pro, altho the Zenfone 10 is very tempting, I miss smaller phones.

This post has me very intrigued

Yep, super helpful for one handed use, especially with how big phones are these days

I agree, I've saved a lot of money/time this way but, I don't expect this to be a popular take here haha

Quake Champions, it's the best and most underrated shooter game I know of

Id say 80% Lemmy 20% Reddit now.

I knew and used Mastodon on occasion but, definitely appreciate it more now

I’d like the idea if they either can’t be purchased, or the purchase goes toward your Instance’s hosting fees

Can't comment on drm restrictions, but my Brother printer has been good (B&W only tho)

I've just kinda made anyone I message regularly message me on Signal or Telegram. Fuck Meta 🤷

They're a lot better in Android 13 from my experience

I like having high-end cameras and screens on my phones.

I keep my phones in excellent condition and sell them whenever I upgrade, which doesn’t make it a crazy expensive process.

When I was 4 and watched Spirited Away I was terrified

Quake Champions for sure. Best competitive shooter I've ever played (and I've tried all the popular ones), great option if you like movement & aim centric games

Reminder to just get a family membership and split with friends, a very good value tbh

Antichrist and also Dogtooth

Ironically my fav lossless streaming service on Android is Apple Music. Amazon Music HD is also pretty good.

Not a fan of Tidal's UI and recommendations, and I hate that I can't see album covers when scrolling through a playlist. Haven't tried Deezer cause Canada

Again, my point 1. was the space the headphone jack takes up.

Apple is going as far as to remove the sim-card slot in iPhones lol

I've been using it on my Pixel 7 Pro and like it a lot

Haha definitely possible. Maybe compare side by side and see if you can learn to appreciate it a bit if you're interested. It's kinda nice to be able to tbh

Man I remember binging his shit back when I was 13 lmao

Well batteries and headphone jacks seem pretty different. You can add a dongle for like $10. Having Apple replace your battery is prob 10x that.

I do 1/2 agree about the AirPods thing but, I’m not convinced the internal space isn’t one of the primary reasons

What company were they sold to? And how do we know its for data harvesting? Legit question

The Apple one isn't very durable but the sound quality is just as good as built-in jacks were. Not as much selection for Lightning :/

Yea no 3rd party launcher is as smooth as the default ones still, but it's noticably better than it was when I tried a couple years back

Not being able to remove the Google search bar on the pixel launcher is a dealbreaker to me

  1. As people have mentioned, it's not about saving $, it's about saving space inside the device which is highly valuable

  2. Lots of dongles are quite high quality. Apples even sounds good, and Moondrop makes a higher-end audiophile one that's better than basically any built-in jack. There's a pretty big market for good USB C dongles (less so for Lightning).

  3. if you care a lot about audio quality, you might know that the companies always tried to save $$ but using pretty mediocre DAC's internally

USB C dongles have potential to be higher quality than your built in-jack if quality is the main concern
