  • I see where you come from, but mobile phones are much better devices than computers for most of the people:

    • always on you
    • easier to use
    • more "real life" applications (camera, mobile music player etc)

    On Lemmy most of the people are desktop enthusiasts running Linux, but it makes sense that other people moved on

  • Thanks, so same as the 7a when it released.

    Damn, I forgot how expensive the a line became

  • Is Android increasingly inconsistent?
  • Unfortunately yes.

    I'm lucky enough to not have that much issues on my side, but I'm not surprised you are encountering those.

  • [General question to the Android community] Have you given up on the audio jack, or do you still only buy devices that have it?

    (Posting this here rather than !askandroid@lemdro.id as it's a quite general question)

    I had a look at the GSM Arena phone finder, and it the choice is getting smaller and smaller every year (only 43 phones from 2023, reviewed by the site, had a jack)

    The remaining ones are mostly

    • Xiaomi Redmi
    • Zenfones
    • Sony
    • Samsung entry range

    So, has everyone switched to Bluetooth / USB-C dongles, or are there still a few people holding to the jack until the very end?

    Most Popular Reddit User of All Time Posts Hundreds of Lewd Waifus Per Day
    www.404media.co Most Popular Reddit User of All Time Posts Hundreds of Lewd Waifus Per Day

    The most popular Redditor of all time exclusively posts anime art on small subreddits.

    Most Popular Reddit User of All Time Posts Hundreds of Lewd Waifus Per Day

    Over the weekend, I learned an interesting fact: The most popular Redditor of all time has amassed their karma by exclusively posting fanart images of anime girls and vTubers dozens of times a day for roughly five straight years. They have earned more than 46 million karma (Reddit points) by posting almost exclusively to relatively small anime-focused subreddits such as r/AnimeLingerie, r/GenshinImpactNSFW, r/BluearchiveNSFW, r/animebooty, r/animebodysuits, r/thighhighhentai, etc.

    The user, called u/CheetahSperm18, spent years posting a mix of hentai and anime art but, more recently, has primarily posted a mix of SFW anime art and mildly NSFW anime waifus in lingerie. CheetahSperm18 passed the infamous u/gallowboob as the most popular Reddit users of all time sometime in 2021, according to the site Karmalb, which is a ā€œLeaderboard for Reddit.ā€

    [Meta] Should we create a !reddit@lemmy.zip community, dedicated to Reddit?

    Basically, title.

    There are a lot of news recently following the Reddit IPO, and I guess it might be interesting to have a dedicated Reddit community (also, having it elsewhere than LW would be nice to reduce the current hypercentralization), and allow people who aren't interested to just block it and still enjoy !technology@lemmy.zip

    What do you think? Just asking the community first as I know sometimes people are concerned about community fragmentation

    PS: thank you @BrikoX@lemmy.zip for your work animating the lemmy.zip communities!
