I wonder how people will show off all of the books they haven't read, what with analogs going out of stye and all.

I don’t know whether this is sarcasm or not, can’t figure it out. But if isn’t, well, I suppose they won’t.

Reading is usually for oneself and not to show off, so I assume, people who purchase such a thing wouldn’t care about showing off.

I like reading normal books but, I currently prefer devices (I.E screens) because it’s easier to carry around, multiple books possible and less preying eyes “what are you reading”.

Apple has teased with making the iPhone-as-a-service, meaning you lease it instead of owning it.

I really like iPhones (more so iOS), especially with sideloading now.

But if leasing becomes norm and we can’t purchase it or get it through subscription of service (2 years with Vodafone and then the phone is yours kind of thing). I’ll just purchase an older Samsung. Then I’ll take the loss and struggle for a few months with the interface and all that.

Unfortunately I don’t have knowledge about Android tweaks but I’m almost certain there is one.

Best is not to use the platform but if you do, then the best thing to do is; use a tweaked version.

One that removes the ads and gives more settings to tweak.

For iOS you can check EthMods Telegram channel and find the tweaked version and then install them through SideStore sideloading.

Some people just prefer to do so, others cannot afford a VPN just yet. There’s always a reason.

For example; I usually torrent but due to just being graduated, no job yet and so no income. I’ll resort to streaming sites for now.

I firmly believe that there won’t be peace as long as Israel exists on Palestinian land. And before people claim random stuff on what I say; sure Israel can exist but not on Palestinian land while genociding the native people. For example, US is their biggest enabler and supporter.. So perhaps they can allow Israel to exist within US.

I know, it’s wishful thinking.
