Sounds like you should go and join a religious cult. They’ll probably have lots of fake shit for you to listen and see.

Itsfoss is blogspam and often have many mistakes and wrong info. People should really stop posting links from them.

Techcrunch has basically been an ad network for companies who want to promote themselves. Other open source projects probably don’t have a budget to pay for an a̶r̶t̶i̶c̶l̶e̶ ad spot.

is anyone stopping you?

“You were the chosen one! It was said that you would destroy the competition, not join them! Bring balance to the Force, not leave it in darkness.”

my $100 Walmart tablet lasts all week with light usage, I doubt this could compare

probably not in a first release, but Android is convulted piece of shit compared to linux desktop environments. Not to mention Google’s and/or OEMs built-in system apps running 24/7 guzzling all your data in the background.

In time, I guess it would beat out in performance and efficiency but lose in the availability of applications, same as desktop linux.

Will you give actual evidence that China’s surveillance is worse than USA if I can say negative things about China?

• China is a authoritarian country that should be broken up.
• It should be investigated and sanctioned if found guilty of Uyghur genocide.
• Fuck Xi and his cronies
• Free Tibet
• Free Hongkong

Do you need more?

Block me or I’ll keep saying forbidden things and your handlers will start to get mad.

“I know I’m right and you’re wrong, no matter what the reality is” isn’t the flex you think it is.

Also go ahead lay everything out here and let’s see if it deters everyone you consider a CCP shill to stop as you’re told by your handlers.

brainwashed psycho.

There’s an easy solution. Dump and create new accounts every week or month or whatever fits your needs. Backup and move your data if you want (lemmy’s data import doesn’t work well with big data though).

Just like changing your password routinely increases your security, new online identity gives you privacy.

Because the fediverse isn’t as big as you think it is and so the number of crazies aren’t a problem yet.

Reviewers are paid actors tho, aren’t they? Since Google controls the youtube algorithms, they get to push which review ranks in search, featured in homepage, and recommended alongside other reviews. And the reviewers make money from ads which are run by Google themselves.

While some reviewers will likely claime they bought the phone, Google has the resources to reward positive reviews.

tldr: Mainstream reviewers are the last thing to base an opinion on a product.

This is one of the reasons you should get your apps from fdroid instead of play store.

yes, but getting updates weeks later isn’t for everyone.

Android authority? seems more like Google Advertorial…

I love me some Cloudflare MITM for my browsing data and authetication credentials. yum…

Also the ISP probably knows most of the servers speedtest owns and accelerate speeds for them along with other popular speed test websites, while throttling other regular connections.

Guy brought crypto-bros’ fake twitter/telegram giveaways scheme to youtube. Anybody with some knowledge of social media scams should have been suspicious. But his viewers were mostly kids and kids like flashy over the top content.

Anyone remember these on Xitter?

With a bot farm driving engagement, there’d be 1000s of comments in few hours. Probably mostly fake but still a lot of suckers reeled in everyday.

This post is an ad first and foremost. That’s why there’s a giveaway, which probably got used up in few minutes but people will keep clicking the link anyway hoping they didn’t miss it.

Mission Accomplished!

I know lemmy hates Apple, but if you want a phone where an advertising company isn’t constantly spying on everything you do and don’t want to fiddle with installing a different OS, it’s amazing.

Ignorance is truly bliss, isn’t it?

All the weird privacy invasive things like Siri (which I aways have disabled), image recognition/search, FaceID, and all that are on-device and send no data out

Did you check their source code? monitored their network traffic with mitm proxy? or just believed what Apple told ya?

Wanna try another talking point you “heard” to feel better about using Apple?

If users wanted updates from Play Store, they would install the app from the Play Store.

Oh sweet summer child. You think they’re the only ones that spread misinformation? Wankies aren’t much different than tankies. But whatever makes you sleep at night.
