    Don’t even get me started. I’ve always hated Apple for this kind of stuff, and now they’re making Android even worse, piece by piece.

    And given that society is dependent on phones, we’re all fucked. I don’t know if a Linux phone can do much given how it’s mostly non capitalistic. I wish though. But adoption-wise I don’t know if it could be a contender anyway. I’m not well-versed in it, but I’m just assuming the worst since the world is falling apart right now and my hope gland needs surgery. 😭




  • Everybody kinda already said the obvious answers, but I’ll pop in to reiterate that my main reason was killing the API (because fuuuuuuck their shitty trash app filled with ads- or any and every app that has ads at all). I got here (Lemmy and piefed and mastodon)as part of the mass exodus that switched when the ax dropped on that.

    I had wanted to before that, but addictions are addictions. But killing the app I actually liked using (combined with the dev making a Lemmy version that was extremely similar), I just kinda rode the wave to the Fediverse.

    So like others, I still poke in when a search result points there, but I avoid it in general. Getting rid of the app will definitely help because it gets rid of the 1-tap access to shit.
