Yeah it's good assuming it's cheap. In the US, it's quite a bit more and I don't think I'd pay that much. These big companies know that charging that kind of money in India will get them nowhere and so even Spotify and Apple Music are super cheap.

I pay for it, but it's insanely cheap in my country. Family plan is like $1.5 a month lol. 5 or 6 users for that convenience is worth it in my eyes. I'd rather do that than make my parents, grandparents have to worry about ad blockers on all their devices.

But not everyone does right? I feel like you have to be a fairly big/popular channel to have sponsors. I'm pretty sure smaller channels can only depend on ad revenue.

People don't like change. But I'm a hypocrite. I've tried switching to Firefox multiple times but I always go back, not even really sure why. I use it as a secondary browser these days.

Does anyone really claim that Firefox is faster than Chrome. There are certainly reasons to use Firefox over Chrome, but speed isn't one of them imo. I've always found it to be slower.

I would hate it if I was just given a keyboard and told that this is all you can use, take it or leave it. I need the options.

Sure. Tbh I still use chromium, knowing that it may not be great in terms of privacy. I don't really use Google Chrome, but I do use chromium browsers. Reason being, I just don't give too much of a shit about my privacy. If it'll be the ruin of me, so be it.

Who uses chrome? Still the majority of people lol. The number of people who care a lot about privacy enough to stop using chromium is a pretty small percentage.

Bruhhh

Not the best take. The apps still need to continue to be developed, adding new features and improvements along the way. That's the cost of development. Not everything is just the cost of infrastructure. By that logic, McDonald's workers shouldn't be paid because it's not their buns and patties, etc.

Well, it's a cat. Why wouldn't it count lol, unless there's something specific about cats in boxes today (haven't used Lemmy today)

Edit: guess we're doing cats in boxes today. Either way, I approve!

....you don't. Use whatever app you want lol.

Fantastic. No bugs for me so far but it's only been a few minutes (and I'm not using lemmy.world). I'm excited lol, feels so great to be back

It'll probably have a one time fee option. The dev must know that not everyone will want to pay a subscription. I paid for removing ads on Sync for Reddit and I'll happily do it again, so hopefully there will be an option of just removing ads. I don't use either Lemmy or Reddit enough to justify paying a subscription, even though I really respect the dev.

I've had several phones under $200 over the years. One thing's been common. The stuff that sucks is the stuff that's not clear from the specs. It's the fact that something or the other just doesn't work that well. I've had bad proximity sensors, bad gps, rather poor ram management (still there on my more expensive Samsung). It's not the chip or the cameras that bother me, it's the stuff like the quality of the sensors, wifi, bluetooth etc. After my last $200 phone, I bought a Samsung galaxy s20 FE 1.5 years after it launched. Soooooo much better than anything I've had in terms of consistency and not letting me down on the daily. So my motto is going to be old flagship, rather than new mid-ranger. And if I can afford it, new flagship I guess.

Beautiful kitty

Yes, it's been there for a while and is widely available now. I want it to improve because it's the closest thing the Android ecosystem has to Airdrop but it's not close in terms of speeds.

13? Isn't nearby share available for almost all Android devices that are running Android 6 and beyond? And no, it's not available on windows by default, but being default on one device is better than being default on none.

Nearby share's convenience is that it's available on all Android phones by default. It's not that fast, but it is convenient.
