Tipping is like paying for DLC / microtransactionw but not getting anything out of it.
Yeah... NAH!
I upgraded from a Pebble Time to a Garmin Vivoactive 4. Quite a bit more expensive but I'm really liking it.
I'm just sad that Garmin is slowly replacing their Memory-in-pixel display in favor of AMOLED screens. MIP displays seemed to me to be the next best thing to e-ink type displays - always on with minimal battery drain.
I'll just need to keep my watch for as long as I can.
I too would like a smallerphone as well. Bringing back the 3.5mm jack would be a bonus, but a smaller phone is higher on my priority list. Even better if it's the same size as my old Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact.
Wonder if 80% of the images submitted will be photos of Zuckerburg
Origin "We create worlds". They definitely did with the Wing Commander series. Played a lot of WC 3, 4 as well as Privateer.
I don't think anyone mentioned Lionhead Studios. Black and White was fun. Sadly it's in copyright limbo if I'm not mistaken.
Also played a lot of Civilization 1 from Microprose back in the day.

Cross coloured jeans.
Using Connect. Pretty happy with it so far. Feels smooth and snappy. Best of all, it doesn't collect any personal data.
I built a new gaming PC almost a year ago and decided to jump into the deep end by installing only Linux. 3 reinstalls later and Linux is still the only OS installed. So far so good. :p
I'm about to suggest another app for you to install. :p
If you're using an android phone (I don't know if it exist on iOS) install the DuckDuckGo app. It has a feature called "App Tracking Protection". It is supposed to block all trackers. I think it works as one of the games i have installed on my phone takes about a minute longer to load, compared to without the tracking protection. I think this is the next best course of action (apart from not installing / using the required apps).
While they're at it, why not look at bringing up the standards of home insulation up to modern standards. A little bit here will pay off in the long run in terms of reduced heating/cooling costs.
I'm of the opinion that we do not federate with Meta. I feel their end game is to hoover up as much data as they can and the easiest way for them to do so is to federate and let the Threads users do the work for them.
If I want to browse content from Meta, I'll create a burner account with a federated server and use a standalone browser just for that purpose.

Steam has also done a ton of work making games run on linux via Proton. Not to forget the Steamdeck too.
