Ive been using google's services since 2017-2018, now its time to finally depart from that. I just got it in the mail yesterday and I'm already in love with it. So much lighter and easier to carry than my samsung galaxy. Gonna transfer everything over in a sim card, switch to Tmobile and ill be good to go. ๐Ÿ˜

I love mint. They're owned by T-Mobile but interestingly while I was paying $15/m for mint and my wife was paying $90/m for T-Mobile I often got better reception, especially when we were somewhere spotty like up a mountain. I assumed it was just a difference in phones, but since she switched to mint she says she gets better reception. Completely anecdotal but interesting.

I'm dreading the day they go to shit.

@beneeney@lemmy.zip @Ripley_Tripley@lemmus.org @SalmonTractor@discuss.tchncs.de $15/mo from jmp.chat is a workers cooperative and so has a smaller likelihood of enshitifying.
