It should be noted that when you make reports, it is your responsibility to provide rational reasoning why something should be removed. Saying it simply breaks community rules is not always good enough.
Note: This is not a rule, but a helpful suggestion.
When posting images, you should strive to add alt-text for screen readers to use to describe the image you're posting:
Another helpful thing to do is to provide a transcription of the text in your images, as well as brief descriptions of what's going on. (example)
Bro and you would fucking SNAP that flip phone down to end a call. That's the only reason people talked on the phone in the day. So they could snap the phone down at the end. Once we traded slap for slab there was no reason to talk on the phone anymore which is why we just text now.
My dream phone is a jailbroken iPhone 5, with all those old apps ported through time, with a flip-out keyboard.
β¦Thatβs it.
Everything since has been a downgrade for my usage.
I have that exact phone with jailbreak. It runs a dual boot of iOS 6 and iOS 8. Itβs so nostalgic everytime I boot it up. I miss slide to unlock.
I never got the appeal of bleeding edge smartphones. Then again I have boring life.
With computers, you have compute for working or gaming. Powerful phones are for media consumption? Is everyone really leading such interesting lives as they project on social media such that the latest phone features are a must have?
For some it stems from living through the early years of smartphones with single core CPUs, only enough RAM to keep one app open at a time, and interactions that were a complete choppy laggy mess.
Back then every new (non-budget) phone upgrade was a ridiculously big jump in performance. If you lived through that era it became a somewhat normal thing to do every couple of years assuming you had the means. I think many phone buyers today are still repeating that old behavior of thinking "OMG I can't wait to use the next model that will be 5x better than this old one" but truly those days are long gone.
Now we look forward to only slightly (single digit percentage) increases in performance. And most new features get back ported to older models so you don't even have a software reason to upgrade unless your model is no longer supported.
"Because Apple made a shitty foldable, it must mean every foldable is shitty"
The layman thinks apple is who invents all consumer technology. I love my Fold 7. I always find other phones to be way too wide
As foretold in the ancient scripts.
I love my z fold, the only thing is the screen protector peels and can somehow damage the screen if you hold off on replacing it. Ask me how I know.
As someone who has a foldable, im happy that my ebook reader comes with me everywhere. Its also gotten me into comics when I would have never given a damn before.
Same. Big videos are nice, but comics, ebooks, PDFs, and diagrams are what make it worthwhile for me.
