@independantiste @ArghZombies I honestly don’t care what it is as long as it follows material design 3 and has material you support.

@skullgiver @ijeff people like eSIM because it allows multiple networks on phones that only have one physical slot; which nowadays, in my experience, is all except some cheap Xiaomis that have a microSD slot that doubles as dual SIM.

@PrivateNoob it will, it’s just that they wanted to get A14 out ASAP because of the security improvements.

@PrivateNoob @FragmentedChicken I think it’s because graphene isn’t done with the porting yet, because other features of the lockscreen like the shortcuts are also gone. They said that there was more work to do, so we’ll see…

@ijeff that cuthole selfie camera is giving me so much OCD…

@phillaholic carriers have to “approve” updates; Google, Samsung, or whoever is your vendor can’t actually push an update because the carrier must sign it with their key. Was it Google’s fault for the vuln? Yeah. Was it AT&T’s fault for your update to take 1 week longer to roll out to you? Yeah.

@phillaholic @ink if it takes a week for an update to get to you, you can blame your carrier for that. Google pushes updates very quickly to unlocked phones.

@el_bhm @floppy you americans are making a fool of yourselves in these threads, there are tons of comments about whatsapp being old or only for drug dealers & sex workers, and it’s so funny how out of touch with the world outside of your borders y’all are. In basically any other place of the world; universal messengers like WhatsApp, Telegram, or WeChat are the de facto standard.

@recursive_recursion @snaggen It’s just a glorified text editor, if it gets too bad it’s not like your hands are tied.

@TheMadnessKing @floppy in Europe for most people iMessage is just the SMS app. Even though it pisses me off that Apple got away with it, having WhatsApp to comply with this is just huge. Everyone here uses WhatsApp, and now I won’t be forced to leave Signal anymore.

@theangriestbird @FragmentedChicken IMO it’s great that they’re settling for a unique brand look that’s actually practical. Pixel’s camera bump not only makes them usable on flat surfaces, but allows you to clamp-mount camera lenses on the bump itself. Personally, I really like the look & feel of my 6a.
