The taskbar still cannot be pinned to the side? I stay with 10.

Still no properly customisable Start menu? I stay with 10.

Still refusing to let my older devices upgrade for no good reason? I stay with 10.

And a number of further reasons that make me refuse 11.

The way mobile providers charge. The likes of Vodafone, any random Telecom, T-Mobile and so forth. It's a huge scam, bordering theft sometimes. Want samples? Here we go:

"Your credit expires in x days. Better recharge now to not lose it!" (Banks should start doing this /s)

"Your credit has expired. Better give us more money within our generous deadline, or else we are forced to delete your number. We love you."

"Your data has expired. We now charge you a horrendous amount every minute, because we are too greedy to warn you in time. For technical reasons we also cannot stop you from using data after your allowance has been used. Fortunately you still have credit, huh?"

"Your data expires today. We don't insult your intelligence by telling you when. Surely you remember when you bought the package, right? It's not hard to count 24 hours. We also do not send any SMS anymore to save the environment."

"Your data has expired. You need data to buy a new bundle. Our app charges data for our convenience."

"Social media data only works for WhatsApp, but not for Signal. But who uses Signal anyways?"

"Use our customer friendly support chat. Conveniently it uses data. 'Hello, I am your smart bot speaking. How can I help you? I might understand you if you type one of the three questions I have been programmed to answer. Do you want to know more about our products?'"

Edit: added point 2, minor corrections for clarity

Speak for yourself. I intend to live forever.

Looking at the world getting worse every single day and realising that so few people care that we're essentially doomed unless some miracle happens.

OpenStreetMap (OSM)

OpenStreetMap is a free, editable map of the world, created and maintained by millions of volunteers. It includes data about roads, buildings, shops, points of interest, and more.

Many of the benefits of Google Maps without all its spying and advertising.

Bonus in line with this: OsmAnd.

Edit: a more lightweight, but fully FOSS OSM client: Organic Maps. Blazing fast and under constant development.

Edit 2: Here is a Lemmy community dedicated to OsmAnd: !osmand@lemmy.ml

"Whaling in the Faroe Islands is conducted in accordance with international law and globally recognized principles of sustainable development," according to the island's government website. "It is sustainable and fully regulated, with a strong emphasis on animal welfare, and a requirement today for participants to be licensed to use the mandatory methods and equipment. Whale drives only take place in bays that are officially approved for the purpose, and only schools of whales found in close proximity to land, usually within one nautical mile, are driven ashore."

The fact that it has to be justified in this way shows that something isn't right. Just because something is legal doesn't make it right.

Also, what kind of nonsense is this: "with a strong emphasis on animal welfare". It's a species hunted and killed by the hundreds! What kind of welfare is seen there!?

Humans' way of justifying their dubious morals can be disgusting!

I do. I use several search engines, but depending on the topic, Bing returns accurate results, especially since they integrated Bing Chat (their AI).

And I'm not alone.

Google a) is littered with ads, sponsored and overly SEOified results and b) has too much dominance.

So I use Bing, Ecosia (which uses Bing) and a number of other search engines.

Discovery had it's moments.

From a Star Trek universe perspective it hit way too many lows, though. This is just my opinion, of course. I found it hard to sit through some episodes. The actors are generally great, but there is too much cheap dialogue (listen to some of the Season 2 and 3 "Picard" dialogue in comparison!), underdeveloped characters, statements like the above that were written without even considering how they might age... well, this was discussed ad nauseam in many places, so I'll stop the rant before it starts.

Thank you Discovery for showing us what doesn't work. Other shows learned from you.

Fairphone proves the usual excuses for ending Android support aren't valid.

That alone is worth a lot. Their endeavour for longevity is also great. I hope they get the attention they need.

Make others on here feel good where possible, respect all and have fun.

Leave the forced controversialism to the red alien.

Welcome. 🫱

I see Denuvo, I don't buy.

Simple.

For a public spokesperson, this is such a hostile and condescending response:

Asked if Reddit could confirm the reinstatement, Rathschmidt declined, saying, “I’m not going to set a precedent of confirming with The Verge every action we do or don’t take to ensure users can access their communities.”
