Their latest announcements are interesting because they say some of their privacy claims will be verifiable by independent firms (mainly when it comes to their custom built AI servers iirc). Is this actually worth something or is it just marketing fluff?

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.

I feel like people will still be saying this in ten years (sadly)

Will do! Thank you 🙌

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

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

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

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.

Yup, Lemmy is just as toxic if not more on some aspects

Right I see. Do you intend to keep that job a long time? If it seems to change you that much, it doesn’t seem like such a great idea :(

Yeah, that’s exactly how I feel too!

Did you suffer some emotional trauma or something similar recently? It’s been 5 years for me, I don’t have much hope of it getting better anymore honestly, at least not if I don’t get better

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 :(

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

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.

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

you sound like a fun guy

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

Good thing I’m only talking about the connector then, not its performance.

You are.

Definitely! We’ll probably never know why they decided to stay on USB 2, it’s such a weird decision. Maybe there really were hardware limitations, but that sounds weird
