Reading on different Apple sites, it’s hilarious. People are acting like they are being sued. Crazy to watch how cult members react. I mean it’s unhealthy but it is what it is.

Venture capitalist Tim Draper believes that bitcoin will transform El Salvador into one of the wealthiest nations in the world

Or one of the poorest? To the moooon 🔻

True but if you use Vivaldi and then you try to go back to Firefox, it’s like going back in the early 2000s. I always say this, Firefox should have been like Vivaldi. Super customizable and packed with features. Instead you have to rely on extensions and thus put your trust in the creator of said extension that they will not sell it. Heck even with extensions, trying to mimic the new tab page from Vivaldi is a masterclass in patience.

Ok you get a free pass, make sure it doesn’t happen again :)

Yeah but Brave? Why not Firefox or Vivaldi.

Feels like the 4.0 version has been in alpha/beta for years now? I thought they abandoned the idea.

I do the same. I don’t care if there is an algorithm or not, I don’t care if you get 0,00001% more money. The end doesn’t justify the means. I am on a personal vendetta, every time I am on YT and I see a thumbnail like that or one with clickbait text or arrows. It’s instant don’t recommend channel. I don’t care if I am subbed to that channel or not. Stop finding excuses, we need a gram of human decency, stop whoring yourself like that

Disappointed that it’s only one arrow! I do appreciate the red circle. Also needs a bit more clickbait title in the thumbnail.

So this movie is going to become a reality a lot sooner? 1-2 generations max, yikes.

What if you had a 1001ft pole?

I’m really disappointed, was expecting all red videos to be those cringey red arrows pointing at irrelevant things.

Well they should have fined Facebook for the Cambridge Analytica scandal, a couple of trillions. That would have taught a lot of companies about ethics how to not lose all your money.

I don’t know, is this supposed to be a joke? A wild sense of humor? If you would have to hypothetically have to sleep on the production line, it tells me the management doesn’t know management.

I would like to see a CEO pull this “joke” in the EU. How long until he would be crucified.

Apple is not offering these changes outside of the EU because this is not the safest system for our users.

I almost spilled my drink. Apple should do stand-up comedy.

Look at more practical example. Steam, is so big that other publishers said, no we won’t put our games in your store anymore. We don’t want to pay you 30%, we will make our own stores. Few years later guess where they came crawling back. I mean really big publishers like EA and Ubisoft, on Windows where you can have a store at the snap of your fingers, you don’t need Steam. But because Steam is so big and all people buy from Steam, you need to sell there.

In case of Apple it will be even worse, who will dare to not publish in their App Store and leave 99% revenue on the table? Yeah.

Reading the comments from that article is a prime example of how a cult functions.

In reality this will have a 0,002% impact. Most phone users are tech-illiterate and have no idea how to use their devices. You expect these people to go to a different store? On Android you can have other app stores, why don’t you have? Because Play Store is default and all app developers want to be where most users are, not on a 3-4% user share store.

It will most likely be background noise in the first months and everyone will go back to the App Store. The only people that will use an alternate store will most likely be the same ones that use F-droid, so 0,002% of the users.

But hey, it’s better to scream how this whole thing is making their devices less secure, because Apple told them so.

I’d beg to differ, this whole “leave Britney alone” shtick is really tiresome.

Apple will find a way to appease the dumbasses in Europe

I imagine Tim Apple’s bottom is shinier than Bender’s from all that kissing. One often wonders why people keep drinking the Kool-Aid from such behemoths. Must be something in the water.

I know but I don’t see any benefits to switching. It’s a little more money for fewer features and it’s still a somewhat new product.

I’ve read some reviews and a lot of people complained about their mails not being sent/received. Might be a limited thing but my email is working so I don’t feel brave enough to start messing around with it and clients not getting my emails.

I am aware this comes from a competitor and they want to go all out. However, what is unclear to me, does this also happen to paying users?

For my small business I use Office 365 Business Essentials, whatever it’s called now, the cheapest one. Been using it for many years and for the price/features, it’s pretty unbeatable. I use the new Outlook on my workstation since a few months, it’s pretty slow and not feature complete but was ok. I’m in the EU and haven’t been prompted with that window where it talks about advertisers. Will check Monday if I see a list of advertisers but I think for paid users it’s not the same.

For personal mail, I use Thunderbird, I even donated to them. I like it but would have been great if it had a view like Outlook. At the moment it has table view and cards view. Wish the cards view would more customizable.
