I had gotten myself a hybrid and was disappointed by it pretty quickly. So it doesn't surprise me that they didn't sell well.

IMO it didn't do good in both categories, smart features were lackluster and not well implemented. And the watch part was kinda OK but not good enough. I couldn't tell the time exactly and the hands had to calibrated often.

All the nerds like to recommend the Pixel since it's "pure" and a device for tinkering. But ignore the fact that all google products are unfinished, and this is true for the pixel line. If you are OK with beta testing for google and doing workarounds for bugs, then this is fine. But not everyone has time and nerves for that.

Yeah, samsung has bloat(most can be removed, disabled etc.) but I've never had OS bugs like when I had a Nexus or a Pixel.

PPA's are the reason why I stopped using Debian-based distros about 8 years ago.

For me, those have been the primary source of pain and anger. Back then, almost every dude had a PPA. Keeping track was hard. Not only that, but often those were full of other unrelated software or libs. The outcome was broken systems left and right.

Got the same on Vivaldi(mobile), then I opened the URL in Firefox(mobile), and I guess thanks to uBlock origin, I was able to read the whole article.

I was broke and my hard drive failed. I've heard/read somewhere that Linux can be booted of a live cd, something quite new back in the days(like 15 years ago?). So I made one a used my broken laptop with broken hdd for about 7 months, just from the live session without persisting anything. It was a pain to wait for everything since most things would have to be loaded from the dvd, but it worked!

Yeah exactly this. Not only lacking direction but the Upstream SUSE recently decided to move away from traditional desktop. Instead, they now offer ALP, which stands for adoptable linux platform. So OpenSuse has no real dekstop products to build of, and the community has to do much more work in order to produce a stable desktop distribution. I was a happy user for a almost 2 years, but in that time the community had discussion about many "small" things, many of which were about "principles". This made ne very uncomfortable in using it, since it felt that every moment the "community" would decide something that would significantly change everything.

Is it just me, or is the sound the keyboard is making really bothersome? It sounds like awful banging. Can't imagine that being pleasant.

Ahaha, just look at this nickname - Soccer God. Tells you all you have to know!
