The real problem is that new phones dont have it, while there are actually people who use it.
To be honest i dont use it either, but i still prefer having it. Just in case you know? Phones without it did not get cheaper after all...
Challenge: impossible
Because you need to pay for further patches / newer versions, and need to pay 12 months worth to be able to use without a subscription.
It gets cheaper each year, so it incentivizes you to pay year to year.
The best subscription model I have seen so far is for the JetBrains products. They call it the perpetual fallback license.
Quote: "A perpetual fallback license is a license that allows you to use a specific version of software without an active subscription for it. The license also includes all bugfix updates, more specifically in X.Y.Z version all Z releases are included."
Sadly this is the same with framework laptops or fairphone's devices as well. They are great products, but their price to value ratio is way worse than these big companies.
Luckily if I need devices that these companies produce, I will definitely buy from them.
The idea of a smart home? Fck yeah. Having it connected to some elses computer (cloud), fck no!
Having a home server only accessible by tailscale vpn, smart vacuum cleaner connected to it, not exposed to the internet, oh boy i love it!
Jokes on you Google, but I dont want to see ANY ads...
These posts reassure me that I chose the right instance. Thank you!

I really cant put it into words how much I hate google right now... Capitalism at its finest
Everyone should use whatever their heart desires, and for me the voyager app is beyond perfect (Android, PWA.) I havent used Sync so it might be better in some aspects but I am content with voyager.
P.S. If you really like a client you should donate any amount to the developer(s) to help them keep their app awesome!
Exactly, it is lovely. Editing text with it is actually enjoyable.
