Samsung doesn’t support USB 3 on several of their higher priced phones, either.

How many people do you honestly think transfer data by cable? I haven’t done it in years, and I have friends with iphones that don’t even own a computer!

why did you remove the Grindr unionization post

I watch YouTube way too much to ever be satisfied by any form of subscription feed. On places like Twitter all I want is the feed of people I follow, but not so much on video platforms.

Hudson River valley?

I don’t use an android.

I do most of my watching on mobile and it’s not worth it to me to do the crazy workaround to not use the official app.

They emailed me thanking me for being a part of their journey for so long and as a gift they are delaying my rate going up by 3 months. Cool……

Hot take but this is worse than them just staying on Reddit.

This obsession with the length and weight of the film is such a bizarre marketing strategy.

Considering all the comments I’ve seen about their phone basically falling apart it kind of sounds like you should just get an iPhone SE and factor in a battery replacement after 3 years. Day one updates for 5 years and I am severely doubtful you’ll have as many hardware problems if you don’t damage it. Better camera, too.

Security updates are easier than full OS upgrades.

Have they actually done this, or did they just say that they will? It won’t be easy…

Doesn’t Qualcomm stop providing drivers after 4 years?

If you had gotten a high quality phone from another manufacturer it is unlikely you would have had this many hardware problems requiring a replacement. This seems like a toss up.

Now let’s see if they actually follow through. I’m skeptical.

real.

Stuff like this is why I went to Mac in 2020 and I only begrudgingly look back the few times a year I absolutely need something windows exclusive. They really have a lovely way with software and UI that Microsoft does not.

I would have the secret santa one like 3 times. Keep making that mistake when messing around with discord bots.

On Reddit you post underneath a community. The decentralized abstraction only slightly complicates this. Reddit is just a centralized version of old forums, where you had an account for all your niche interests. Lemmy is the middle ground between those old forums and a central account because you can access all the content from any fediverse account.

On Twitter, you post detached from any community, the only way to be a part of one is purely based on social groups. The average person doesn’t want to have community instances even if they can talk across multiple, they want a social media that can represent themselves and all of their interests on one account. And if you say the solution is for everyone to just join the biggest instance, how is that really any different from a centralized social media anyway? It’s just over complicated for what Twitter is.

Bluesky and Threads will crush Mastodon. And unfortunately, between those two, probably Threads will beat Bluesky.
