How is it clickbait?

They said they'd open source Pocket and they didn't. In fact, they've simply allowed it to rot and just removed features. So here I think the skepticism is warranted.

I agree that X is enemy territory now, but in a world where billionaires can buy up all the major means of communication, it doesn't feel like enough to just close up our accounts and move on. They can follow us wherever our accounts go and buy platforms out from under us. Lemmy and Mastodon are slightly better as open decentralized platforms, but they still could be attacked by Musk if he had the initiative to.

I found it annoying on my Note 20 because that space was mostly lost for using the pen. Glad to have gained that real estate back for writing on the S24 Ultra

I use Flauncher. It works pretty well and is a simple grid of icons. With some ADB commands it can be set as default, which I did on my Shield

When I'm traveling and my tablet reconnects to wifi, I get a surge of vibrations. So the combo of notification sync and this feature sounds like it will finally solve that problem!

Honestly our sad EV offerings deserve to be disrupted

It was crazy visiting China last year. The EVs that everyday people are driving feel so polished and futuristic in many ways.

Thinking before they adopt is hard to do. I understand some experiments get cut. But I'm not sure they are thinking even after they adopt. Thus the half-assed delivery and constantly abandoning projects before they get a fair shake

I'm ok with them chasing ethical applications of AI. I'm more tired of their half-assed efforts to chase every shiny new object over the last few years. It feels like as a non-profit, they should be comparatively immune to chasing the same transitory trends that other shareholder-owned companies are obsessed over. But it seems like for Mozilla, they have an even shorter attention span than their corporate competitors. We've seen them chase after crypto, metaverse, augmented reality, Firefox OS, and now AI. All of those efforts fizzled out with a whimper.

Critiquing Mozilla when they make mistakes is not the same as hating them. It is healthy to keep these organizations accountable

One can and should critique a company when they make mistakes.
