The fewer devices listening in on me, the better.

Every platform wants to be every other platform nowadays

I hope it goes away

Those weren’t designed to be addicting the way platforms like TikTok are

Even if they would, look what at happened to Bleem. They successfully argued in court that the PS1 emulator they were selling was legal, but Sony kept suing them until Bleem went bankrupt paying legal fees. That was an actual corporation, too. What hope does an individual artist have?

Or, more accurately, they aren’t prepared for the legal battle that would ensue

With capacitative buttons and on-screen buttons, there are times where I hit them on accident, which is annoying. The little bit of extra force you need for physical buttons makes this much less likely. I also don’t like when on-screen buttons are hidden, and I am worried that I would trigger gestures on accident.

Looks great, but do the windows jiggle when you drag them? Mine do

Honestly, I would take the look of Windows XP over the look of Windows 10/11 or current MacOS. Of course, I’m on Linux, so I actually can do that

I want a cell phone with a headphone jack, physical navigation buttons, and a rectangular screen like they used to make. At this point, I’ll have to go with a flip phone if I want all of those features.

If it was Fischer-Price, it would be colorful. This is just the sort of bland, generic website UI you see everywhere

For those who take this seriously: don’t. Security by obscurity does not work.

They’ve been sucking for longer than they’ve been losing

Because it’s not the AI that’s taking away jobs, but the executives hoping to cut costs regardless of creativity, quality, or ethics.

Not surprising, considering Musk used it back then too.

Defederation is an important tool to protect communities. It helps prevent the Fediverse from being overrun with bad actors.

Or just stealing someone’s phone, doing whatever they want to do, toss it in a river, and not have anything traced back to them

I’m surprised banks haven’t stepped in. They wouldn’t help for the good of the world, but this would destroy online commerce and banking.

You’re talking about the AI that provides accurate-sounding results but can’t fact-check and is also used to generate the kind of spam that’s constantly being pushed by search engines, right?
