Why the click bait? Are you being paid by the site? Just put the feature in the title and save us a click
I avoid editorializing titles no matter how shitty they are and in this case the feature is already showcased in the cover image which doesn't require clicking on the article to see.
I avoid editorializing titles as well, but so many headlines these days are written as clickbait, that finding a good alternative link is usually time consuming and sometimes impossible. I compromise by adding [the key info in brackets], which is widely recognized as acceptable when clarification is needed.
Hmmm... somewhere in here is a solution for the Bluetooth connection prioritization/stealing quagmire but I cant sus out how.
If bluetooth audio devices would include a paired device selection function by cycling through the list of connected devices sequentially instead of auto-prioritizing either the most recent connection or the most recently paired device that would fix a lot of the Bluetooth hellscape we are in right now.
Or just let me select a primary device. Hell if you let me prioritize like 3-5 devices that would be good enough. I could prioritize them 1-5 and be done.
Not sucking?
It sounds perfect for the 15 Minutes of Hate.
