Technology

Is there a steamdeck lemmy community? I quite liked having a place to talk about performance of some games or tweaks or releases.

Nobody except nerds like us care about RCS.

So... here's a hot take I guess (disclaimer: i am an iphone user): People who are actively complaining about Apple having features that are unique to its platform don't know how products work. Apple created this technology and design themselves and other companies want to leech off the features. We should want competition like iMessage vs whatever Android uses. For anyone to basically say Google doesn't have the ability or resources to create an actual competitor is silly. They absolutely can make an alternative, but they choose not to. Google becomes complacent and progress slows or completely stops. I'd rather have a product that is FEATURE-FULL than feature-less. Additionally, this contact feature thing is neat, but I wouldn't call it a "game-changer" or revolutionary. It's similar to the super old ability that some cellular providers had/have where you could play a specific song instead of the calling tone.

Thank you for coming to my TED Talk. 😒

Owh dammit what now. I haven't read it yet but I'm already tired of it

The EU is already legislating to solve this. They are forcing open APIs on iMessage with the DMA.

Reading through the comments in this thread, I'd just like to mention how amusing it is to see so many people in the fediverse arguing in favor of walled gardens and vendor lock-in. Like, do you even know where you are?

Idk, I see this as a plus. It sucks when one android user in a group chat gimps file sharing for everyone.
