This seems to imply that you need a fork of Android, if you’re to build a messaging app that uses RCS.
But my understanding is what you really need is essentially an RCS server.
My experience is directly the opposite. Bought an iPhone 12 Mini after Pixel 3XL died. Granted, I was already using a Macbook for a long time. Lotta things I’d been trying to get working, using things like KDE Connect instantly became automatic.
I’ve seen people actually get job done on phones, but that’s never been the case to me. To me the phone should ideally be an extension of my desktop. I’d been doing that with Chrome+Pixel for a while. But iPhone unlocked much more of macOS for me
I live in Bangalore, India. The local language here is Kannada but I don’t speak it nor do I have many friends who speak it. I named my cat Bacardi and would call him Bacoo. Turns out the word for cat in the local language is also “Bacoo”. So for any local who saw me interact with my cat, it looked like I was calling my cat “cat”! I found out around a year later!
You joke. That’s not what I meant and if Apple did make an app it wouldn’t be Open Source.
But Apple does contribute to Open Source. They collaborated with KDE back when Microsoft was making fun of Linux
One amazing RSS app I recommend to all Apple users is NetNewsWire. It’s Open Source and works very well. If Apple ever built an RSS reader, it’d be like this. It uses iCloud to sync between devices.
Lets you use a reader mode where it fetches readable content from the URL instead of just reading from the xml file.
And is very simple. If you use something like Feedly, it also works very well as a client for such services. I started using it like that, later just started using iCloud instead of Feedly
After trying multiple apps to sort my budgeting situation. I finally decided to create a solution that involves default Numbers + a shortcut to add row to the end of sheet. Now that shortcut lives on my homescreen. This is by far the best personal budgeting solution I’ve used. And I put it all together in 20 minutes!
it’s part of their anti-adblock code. without going into too much details, they can instantly find out whether ad-block is trying to do anything on chrome, but on firefox they need a 5 sec delay
I use iMessage to text my close friends. But I live in a country where WhatsApp is a verb.
So I do end up using WhatsApp and in my experience, it’s already riddled with
I don’t see how it can be any worse tbh. Instagram ads are way better imo.
I do. Especially compared to a company like Amazon. Google’s alternatives to Amazon’s are almost always better and has better UI/UX.
But Amazon knows the market and whatever bs they stitch together ends up being the more popular option.
What I have in mind are GCP vs AWS, Kindle vs. Play Books, etc
Their iOS app is equally shit as well as
I don’t know if Android users in here understand how flawless this works on iOS+mac. All I need to activate this is have my phone nearby and turn my locked phone to landscape mode. No need to even unlock my phone or connect it to my laptop.
I was blown away by how “automatic” it felt!
what do you mean? mini was released alongside all other iPhone 12s
To be fair, the founder of the business, Byju, used to be a very ordinary school teacher and then he built this whole thing. Not family-owned, nor born rich.
Fuck their business practices though
Hmm. Not really tbh. As long as it doesn’t inject ads on to the web page (like Edge did to Download Chrome page) I’m fine.
Oh I want my web browser to do exactly one thing. Reasonably parse HTML, JS and CSS of the websites I visit
I don’t know if OP had this in mind. But a website and webapp are different. The whole UX ruleset we follow for both are different from the ground up (websites have big buttons, webapps have compact buttons)
If it should’ve been a website, there’s no need for a webapp or native app.
If it should’ve been a webapp, a native app makes sense too
Come to think of it, the Apple Ecosystem and Google Ecosystem are somewhat established super apps. But probably the major difference is that they have to play well with their competitors to an extent. iMessage within itself has a third party app ecosystem.
Here’s is something I don’t see a lot of people mention. Around the release of Pixel 3XL, Google kinda updated lot of their designs to make that hideous notch look intentional. Chrome Tab Headers were changed too. They got bigger with a lot more padding and rounded to look like the “notch”. They got rid of the notch in their phones, but the chrome tab header design somehow stuck
I’m in my late 20s and I’m on the same boat. Especially when it comes to politics. People are often much more than their politics. Unless they’re in the extreme horizontals of their beliefs.
That nice barista at the coffee shop? Could be a liberal. The dude at the office who held the elevator for you? Could be conservative. That’s just the way it works
