In ten years all phones will be crabs

I’m annoyed by all those Facebook-type boomer comics you see on basically all meme subs. Reddit culture managed to get rid of them, but for some reason people here seem to love them

I think I’d rather listen to some custom AI generated music than the same royalty free music over and over again.

In both cases they’re just meant to be used in videos and stuff like that, you’re not supposed to actually listen to them.

Just buy used. You get all the goodies without supporting their shitty practices, while not even having to deal with the ethics of piracy. It’s all win.

To be fair I had an 8Gb M1 Mac mini for about a year and never even once felt like it was lacking memory. I could open as many things as I wanted and it didn’t slow down, so I can kinda see where they were going with this. Not saying it makes that situation much better though.

I think the current base iPhones with 4Gb or 6Gb suffer way more from lack of memory than the 8Gb Macs, and people aren’t taking about this enough.

I started with subscriptions and now I like both methods, they’re complementary. The algorithm is really good at suggesting either random stuff I like or new stuff I might like. And I subscribe for stuff I know I’ll want to watch no matter what. Works pretty well!

I’ve been a heavy Telegram user since around 2016. I’d say the main thing I love about it is their focus on user experience. Everything is always super fast, looks nice and feels smooth. They’re often pushing new features which is always cool to see.

Plus their iOS/macOS apps look native and aren’t web-based, so it’s a great replacement for iMessage.

At this point I’ve converted my whole family and friends and they all love it too!

Really excited for this! Hope they learned their lesson this time and aren’t gonna over promise.

Even though it looks really polished already considering it’s all in game footage, I hope they’ll give it a few more years before it comes out.

The giant French flag especially is ridiculous (and I’m saying this as a French person). Also, I was expecting more fuck u/spez, but I guess the normies don’t care

Edit: wow I sound salty (I am)

Google being Google, I’ll believe it when I’ll see it.

Phones have stopped getting thinner like 10 years ago

Definitely, oftentimes open source projects don’t make it easy for themselves

I mean, you can download one in 10 seconds if you really need one (or use Spotlight)

I’m one of the devs, always nice to find users in the wild! 🔥

Yeah, this is exactly like the Reddit and Twitter situation. No matter how bad it gets, people don’t care. If they’re used to something, they’ll rather put up with the new bad stuff than changing their habits.

I hope it will motivate Apple to support their phones even longer as well. I have a XS (2018) and it still works really well, it’s fast and smooth, I’m sure it could support at least 2 more years of updates. Yet iOS 17 will probably be its last, which is a little frustrating.

I know, I don’t really care, I’m just replying to the thread :)

It’s annoying but also interesting to see that people upvote different things

Same thing with my 2018 iPad Pro honestly. More ram and a better display? Maybe, but other than that it’s completely software limited

This is the ultimate YouTuber power move. Exurb1a and RetroGamingNow do it too!

I don’t know about the 400Mhz part but I’ve had a similar experience with my 2012 Retina MacBook Pro. I replaced the battery multiple times with an iFixit one, and since then the computer has had all kinds of problems (dying at 40% battery, randomly switching off and other similar things). I’m on my third replacement battery, so either I’m really unlucky or there’s something fishy going on

Yup! Been using it for years, it looks nice, has a good UI and works well. I’ll use the CLI if I need to but 99% of the time Desktop is the better choice (for me).

Yeah :( It sucks because I don’t think there are any alternatives, and they’re expensive too for what they are

As a small phone enjoyer, I do! The thinner the bezels, the better the screen to body ratio is. It also looks better imo

Get it used. You get a Mac without giving Apple money. It’s all win.

I used to regularly listen to music a few years ago, this was something I was able to really enjoy no matter the situation. But then I got depressed and I just can’t anymore.

Spotify will suggest me a song and I’ll be like « hey I kinda like this one ». I’ll listen to it the next day and it’ll feel super repetitive, as if I had listened to it hundreds of times already and it got annoying.

Thankfully it doesn’t happen with situational music like in games and movies, so I can still enjoy that. I’m also still able to listen to the songs I really loved before I got depressed (I don’t do it much though, don’t want them to get repetitive too). New music tho… I can’t :(

This would be the last one I saw. I probably have plenty more examples in my downvotes, but I don’t think they’re accessible on Lemmy :(

It wasn’t a flexible screen, it was just bent. Also it was the back that was self healing iirc, not the display

Yeah that’s what I thought, it’s not really comparable. Doesn’t explain why they all suck so bad compared to Android’s custom keyboard though

The main thing for me is the quality of the pull tabs. It might partly be a skill issue but in my experience they break 3 out of 4 times, and then it transforms into a miserable experience. I’ve changed iPhone batteries maybe 6 or 7 times now and I’ve never managed to get better at it, even by being super careful.

They need to find a better system to stick those batteries, at this point I’m convinced pull tabs are terrible by choice.

Yeah if you don’t appreciate cool hardware and only care about raw performance, then it’s definitely not for you

I started drawing when Reddit collapsed. Now I get to look at pieces of paper (or Procreate…) instead, that’s kind of better

Seems like I can’t without the app, oh well 🙃 https://i.ibb.co/zmBjNGK/IMG-4531.png

Sounds cool though!

I really enjoy the WAN Show but the LTT channel is hit or miss for me, most videos are way too long for the content that they actually provide. It makes sense considering the amount of videos they make, but it’s frustrating

Yeah :( Then I wish he could retire from it. I’m fine with Ultimate being the last one, Smash will live on through the community.

I can’t wait for people to make an emulated online mode like they did for Melee!

Sakurai isn’t even old, he seems like the kind of guy who could go on making games for another 45 years haha

I’m fine with a 32Gb Switch, I just don’t want it to run at 720p 30fps

That’s what everybody has been saying every year since like 2017. New iPhones have always been very iterative apart from a few exceptions.

Yup! That’s fair. App compatibility usually is the main problem when using an older iPhone

Kids don’t like anything that doesn’t have foul language, sexual innuendos, or involves subtly.

I’ve never heard such a boomer thing to say lmao

Anyway, the main thing I dislike about it is the art style. The jokes can be funny sometimes but they usually aren’t really jokes to me

What do you mean for the keyboards? Isn’t there an API for third parties? I guess it’s too limited but I’m wondering in what ways exactly
