Drop, keychron, epomaker, kono, kbdfans, kprepublic, keebd, keebio, splitkb, aliexpress, ergomech, and many many many more

Tests and diagnoses are pieces of information that add to a holistic understanding of a person. More information is always preferred. It allows you to frame your thinking more effectively. If possible for you, I would definitely go ahead.

I’m using the apps: both Drive and Photos, at least. Works very well for me. For backup, I do a physical backup daily to an attached external hard drive, and weekly to a remote cloud option

It might not solve all your needs, or your use case specifically, but I’ve got myself a Synology NAS and that has been a solid alternative to Google Photos for me.

Spot on. And as a result I have moved as much as possible away from Google myself. Email, Drive, Photos, Search etc. I’m happy

They’re worth a lot if you’re laundering money

What do you mean? You didnt go out and spend all your money on reproducable jpegs? Whats wrong with you?

Feels like a stretch. Elaborate?

Support is important, but being a PC, you can get that from 3rd party solutions like ChimeraOS

Mostly I’m just enjoying all the competition in this sector - it’s good for consumers

I came across this insane opinion piece the other day: https://www.laptopmag.com/features/mind-eurown-business-for-the-sake-of-the-iphone-apple-needs-to-fight-back

It’s so surreal, it feels satirical

And you’ll probably want both anyway

So many options from them, really. You could also look at epomaker, and even Drop has a few options, but you’ll get most bang from Keychron

Can’t go wrong with Keychron: https://www.keychron.com/collections/normal-profile-keyboards

But it does depend on what you’re after

I like this a lot but I want it without the function keys

For average wireless headphones, sure, but there are plenty of options without lag. Low Latency Bluetooth is a thing and so are 2.4ghz connections. I don’t have issues with either

I saw a headline about that. Oh man - so much of this unnerves the hell out of me

Reddit most certainly did not win. Win what, anyway? Many long-time users and moderators left the platform.

They have some other options on their site but I don’t think any of that helps your point.

Very good point. I can imagine that they are currently just trying to prevent a deluge of fully AI generated content with this policy and will then adjust accordingly.
