I don’t see the point. Sure, smartphones can be bad, but I have adhd and an addictive personality and I can limit myself if I set up boundaries. Remove apps that waste time, set app time limits, but still have a gps/camera/computer in my pocket if I need it.

I’m interested to see what responses you get though.

I suspected the site was a demo of what the software LOOKED like, then I got to the part where y’all say it’s functional. That’s a REALLY cool way to do an intro!

The only thing I need to know: https://social.heise.de/@vowe/110655159261864491

I’m interested in why you think android has any privacy benefits. If you are talking full-google android, I don’t see how running an OS made by a company whose business model is finding out every bit of info they can about you is privacy positive.

Now if you are talking lineage and/or grapheneOS
Without gapps, sure.

I like Apple because my phone just works. Sure the customization isn’t there, but I’d waste time on it if it was. Also stay on Apple because last time I checked, the Apple Watch was the only wearable that tracked wheelchair activity properly.

iOS has gotten far buggier since Steve’s departure though. The “paint the back of the fence” mindset got ruined by Tim Apple and capitalism.

Yeah, chuck in on the pile of “battery innovations” that get announced but never come out. It’s a large pile.

Hydrogen is the future.

I made an account there once and immediately got racist and homophobic results, so I quit using it.

I use DuckDuckGo. Including using their browser on iOS and windows.

It’s summer here, and El Niño is coming, so I’m in a constant state of climate induced despair and panic. It’s my big trigger. I see one bad news story and my brain runs down all the possible avenues about how we are all going to die and how my son’s life is going to be terrible and I’m horrible for having brought him into this world and everything is falling apart and it all sucks now.

But I just started playing destiny 2, so that’s fun.

I’d be willing to bet that the vast majority of Americans don’t budget at all. I don’t. I should, but I’d probably walk into traffic if I had to look at the numbers.

One of their mods literally was a 20 hour work week dog walker who wanted to work less.

They THINK they had to work hard. Most of them are from a time where a one income family of 5 could actually be financially solvent.

I think the venn diagram of people who think free speech is the #1 inalienable right that was granted by the cosmos/god and can never be infringed and people who just want to be able to say whatever they want and people can’t get mad at them for it is a circle.

I enjoy free speech. I think it’s important. I’m still going to distance myself from an those with no control over their mouth. That’s not ignoring their free speech, it’s invoking my right to not hear it.

In a world where people regularly poop in yards doesn’t mean I wouldn’t want to stop them pooping in mine.

This is what the devs are doing. Anyone who doesn’t like that is free to use another instance.

Not to mention the scams. I have tinnitus, and google knows that, so I get snake oil tinnitus ads all the time.

Seriously, if someone cures that, they won’t need to be advertising on YouTube.

huh. Maybe that’s why watching this on mobile safari with vinegar installed has been really flaky lately.

Well in a world where people will attack a fast food worker for their order being wrong, it’s probably prudent to make sure the employees you are responsible for are protected.

Yep. That was the point I became what he calls a ”whiny “ person and deleted my account.

Lol. Love this place. I make a joke, but get an actual explanation in return. Thanks!

…and they said Vista was better than XP… Win 8 was better than 7… Win 11 is better than Win 10. I’m not sure Microsoft is the best at compare/contrast.

Is that why KBin never works for me, but multiple Lemmy instances do? Lol
