Swapping to new phones is really dreadful because of apps installs. It seems like the whole process is great EXCEPT app installs.

I can sit here and spin the exact same question about reducing global exploitation.

Reducing global exploitation would implies self sustainability and with the west, particularly the US, they never reach self sustainability with their current economic model of giving 95% of their production/wealth to the top 1% while a very large portion of its population is struggling economically/mentally/physically.

It’s a stepping stone in the problem of global exploitation, but it can’t happen overnight nor independently.

It is unreasonable to assume a model outside of this will be attainabille within the next two centuries.

Instead let’s focus on drawing back the exploitation within our own country this century then we can shift our perspective. We will never stop exploiting the poorest countries if we’re still exploiting our poorest citizens.

Realistically this graph wouldn’t include Snapchat, as it’s less of a “social media” than the others. Most people nowadays use it strictly as a messaging platform.

Not OP but mostly for when content on one gets DMCA’d.

I only have Eweka and haven’t had any trouble finding any TV series or movies. No experience with audio books though, but I’d expect similar results since audiobooks are probably less strict with dmca than movies. I also don’t think Eweka respects dmca takedowns.

This is actually the problem with mid sized communities. If there’s two political communities and their content is 70% overlapping then you’re obviously going to unsubscribe from one as your feed becomes cluttered. But then you’re missing that 30% of content from the other community.

Bans LGBT+ people

My fyp is full of bipoc LGBTQ+ people? Twitter on the other hand tries to feed me right wing news sources and disinformation all the time. There’s a spectrum here and TikTok is far on the other side.

Also to be frank the algorithm is by far the best out of any company with a “for you” algorithm. It blows pretty much anything else out of the water entirely.

Ontop of this, that’s totally aside from safety, things just get done much much quicker due to less bureaucracy. Take any sort of rail system for instance, they’ve built ENTIRE rail systems (light and heavy) in the time it’s going to take Seattle to build 2 miles of lightrail.

It’s both cheaper and faster, while I don’t know the safety statistics I certainly don’t see train derailments happening left and right.

It turns out when you don’t cater to businesses and can relocate residents at their whim it has some advantages for better or worse depending on your perspective.

One single god God, perhaps what makes a god a god? I do believe we form a network or web of connected consciousness. Who’s contained within this web and how interactions work on it is where it gets interesting.

Really your only answers are going to be based in economics.

A society can absolutely thrive with a 1:1 ratio, but not built around a capitalistic mindset. Quite frankly China’s probably the best person to have this problem and they ignore the whims of capitalism for their countries residents quite often.

Possible non-economic considerations could be not having enough people to build a military and lack of cultural exportation. Both of which China doesn’t really have any problems with.

Comments like this contribute nothing. Sure it’s true but it has absolutely nothing to do with the conversation at hand and is unnecessary.

Instead let’s have a discussion, do you think Hollywood has had a stream of Garbage content lately?

Hpw did the pro west president win in previous election if 78% of population doesnt support him?

Lol

Your subscribed will be the same. All will differ as it grabs everything everyone on that instance is subscribed to.

Ex. If you’re on lemmyworld you’ll see everything there by default but if you swap to instance X and nobody in x is subbed to niche.community@lemmyworld then it won’t be brought to your All

I have no doubt that it’s well maintained and well tested, but how does this provide benefit to an every day intenet user.

The setup for i2p is virtually impossible for 98% of internet users. How do we apply i2p benefits to the 98%. This is the rewrite that must be done. The code is solid and works yes, but it’s the social application that needs to be rethought.

The absolute greatest people you can target with i2p are torrenters as it proves the MOST benefits to them immediately and you generally don’t even see any of them adopting i2p. This is the problem that needs to be thought through.

I2p is notoriously difficult to setup up for the average user as well as being pretty slow right?

It’s also 20 years old, do you think the core i2p code would need to be retackled in order to make it more available to the average user and at that point would it be more advantageous to start from scratch?

But honestly it’s not a huge deal, I swapped an esim in under 3 minutes last week

physical sim card trays

Seems like a backwards move IMO. honestly haven’t needed a tray in ~6 years

Being able to rip the battery out when the phone locks up

How often does your phone lock up that that’s necessary? I used to have lockups a lot more but android is damn stable now, haven’t had one in years.

Needing to make sure it’s actually off and can’t be remotely powered on

Do you disconnect your PC’s PSU?

When it’s 3 years old and the hardware is still well up to the task but the battery lasts 4 hours.

Fair, but if you’re getting 4 hours SOT after 3 years, it’s just not a great phone. My current Note 10+ still pumping out 10 hours SOT and I’m a HEAVY user.

Honestly in 2015 I’m totally on your side for this, but in the last few years I’ve never felt the need to hotswap batteries, and only slightly felt the need to replace it in general.

Just curious, what situations do you find yourself in relatively frequently that a hot swappable batter would be more convenient?

Nowadays w/ 15 SOT I don’t think I’ve actually needed one minus camping where I don’t really use my phone much anyways.

You can easily make this argument towards teenagers as well, but they’re obviously illegible. Yet their rights and futures are being stripped away by the elderly.

There should absolutely be a hard cap and Senators should also be forced to use the services they provide (i.e. stop making millions stock trading) post retirement so it’s guaranteed to be beneficial.
