I feel like I’m the only one who still reverts navigation to the 3 dots and doesn’t use any of the new stuff they’re releasing.
This taskbar looks like it’s going to make things happen without me wanting them to, I hope we can turn it off.
I degoogled to Proton mail initially. I didn’t like that I couldn’t search my emails (a security thing or something? But annoying) and then their Drive was absolutely useless on macos. I had about 100gb and it couldn’t sync even half of it.
After much help from support I eventually moved away to a combo of Fastmail, Mega and OnlyOffice.
The first part is my first name, and I used to be in a punk band called Suspect Package.
All of these AI prompts sound like begging. We’re begging computers to do things for us now.
What if I don’t use Assistant? Does it still have access to other parts of my phone?
I’m not USA, I can never be 100% sure.
They want a tip at self-serve? That’s ridiculous!
I picked up from their response that they’re just using the public API, not in any kind of partnership?
I keep hearing about Kagi, are they reputable? I moved from Google to DDG and I do a fair bit of searching so I would be interested, but I guess there’s a bit of a one-company-knowing-my-search-history going on (totally unironically).

Ew.
I used to use Windows a long time ago, it was always slow and crap. I also tinkered with Linux but I don’t want to spend my free time (and some of my work time) troubleshooting. I like the idea of Linux, but for most people it isn’t there yet. Windows is just bad.
Apple has created a situation where, for better or worse, they are both the software and hardware. Yes, you’re locked in and pay for the name, all of that, but also they work. Really well. No troubleshooting, no bloat or slowing down. That’s what people pay for.
Also Photopea is pretty cool too
I use NewPipe, it’s a nice alternative but then I’m not a heavy YouTube user. How are they able to make it? I’m surprised YouTube would allow an app like this to exist.
They should remake the 1989 version
Exactly, I had GSuite and purchased 1tb storage for Drive. Now I’ve been moved to Workspace and they’ve cut each user down to 30gb (I’m the only user) and my Drive space doesn’t count for any of it. Drive says I have 1tb but Workspace Admin says my user is 300% over the limit.
Google themselves told me I need to purchase more storage (or up the number of users) and try and get a refund on the 1tb storage. Bizarre.
I need to replace my Pixel 6 Pro soon (cracked screen, issues with phone in general) and out of curiosity I checked iPhones. The last few versions all have very similar specs, I could get a 12 and wouldn’t be missing too much. I can see why people would constantly upgrade.
This looks like a list of apps I’m trying to move away from
Also Aussie sites often cover news in the UK.
If a free haircut makes me look like Zuckerberg, no thanks.
Huh, I actually had to look at the At a Glance but to see what you were talking about. I’ve just taken it as a given that I can’t use the top 1/3 of the screen or the bottom strip.
I’m not a gestures guy at all, I like buttons!
