So you’re angry that a Google service doesn’t have longevity on an Apple product?

Your argument makes no sense. Who even cares if these ancient paperweights work? That’s not “planned obsolescence”, that’s just hardware and software getting old.

Well there was no such thing as the “iPhone 3”. There was the iPhone 3G or the iPhone 3GS, but no “iPhone 3”.

And this doesn’t prove anything lol an iPhone 3G can still connect to a 3G network and make calls and browse the internet.

“Planned obsolescence”? Like where the iPhone 7 and on have received 6 to 7 years of software updates?

For their price, I should hope so.

They also released a version that included all the DLC and then walked back that promise.

We’ve known about the X everything app for months now. Elon hasn’t been hiding the fact that he wants to compete with all major forms of social media. Twitter’s acquisition was only the first step. Soon it will be YouTube and Twitch competition, then Instagram, etc.

I disagree, but I also don’t have a problem with people or companies being wealthy enough to make or own them, either.

Electric boats seem like a great idea, especially with all the pollution the really large cruise ships put out. I’m happy to finally see this become mainstream. On the water there’s nothing to really get in the way of solar panels, either, so it makes sense to have them for charging.

I don’t think you should be enjoying the fact that there are some problems that could realistically cause a large portion of Lemmy instances to become unsustainable. We should be working towards a way that we can ensure the Lemmy ecosystem thrives.

Considering the Steam Deck accounts for a huge portion of Linux installs, I think flatpaks are going to be here to start and only grow in popularity.

I have to ask though, why do people dislike flatpaks?
