Same here. I have been happy with Apple Maps.

I was an early adopter for Waze and helped them build and fix their maps. I loved Waze. Several months after Google bought Waze, I repeatedly noticed battery draining faster and location was more frequently being used by Waze. I wrote to them about it. After some time passed and no response or change, I ditched them.

Doesn’t Google Maps show trends instead of live numbers?

Edit: I used “numbers” because I wasn’t sure how to end my question. Stats? Values?

Also for the record, I have experienced an 8GB Mac Mini run Firefox with at least 20 tabs, Jetbrains Rider with code open and editable, Jetbrains DataGrip with queries, somehow Microsoft Teams, MS Outlook and didn’t seem to have a problem. Was also able to share the screen on a Teams call and switch between the applications without lag.

Windows OS couldn’t handle your application load? Eat a penis, Microsoft. Fucking clown memory management.

OR anyone suggesting those lives in a city and doesn’t generally let their pets out near forests and therefore didn’t think of that use case.

Same here. I’m on my 12 mini right now!

If the creator of WhatsApp was willing to walk away from billions of dollars because he didn’t agree under principle with where it was going under Meta, I’m willing to not use the app.

Just the tip(s)?

If one were to consume the product before getting to the register, is it then considered a debt? Asking for a friend that is going to get some beer.

THIS! When I read Zoom's response to the tweet that was the focus of this original post, my initial thought was "...but you are having them agree to terms without an opt-out"

Firefox Focus is set as my default browser so that if I click on random links from Lemmy, email, etc. the session is disposed immediately. (I had a bad habit of ‘collecting’ hundreds of tabs before Firefox Focus)

I have a few things bookmarked in Safari, which still gets the protection of the Firefox Focus blockers. Safari is what I use for my self-hosted services.

I use Firefox Focus instead of Firefox.

Its added benefits are it can also serve as some ad and tracker blocking for Safari browser as well.

Someone shared this post about ProtonMail the other day and thought I should share here as well.
