And I don’t want to sound like a Luddite, but I find that all the time, features that were useful or worked excellently in previous versions or systems are changed for the worse. It definitely seems as if we, overall, live in a world of Cory Doctorow's 'enshittification.'
Apple's hardware is great! I'll adjust to the software changes, probably find out it's fine, just different and I don't want different! Two issues - first, I'd be fine with a stripped down OS for the phone. It's trying to do too much FOR me. I want it to just do what I want it to do, and that's not a lot of personalization - just work, don't try to make my functionality the same as the most hard charging person whose livelihood depends on software/phone/internet connections. I don't need that. Also, when software updates are needed give me a "retain previous version's functionality" or something. It's fine, I'll adjust - I just don't want Cupertino decidingstuff for me. Meh
Lol on the apple rant. Currently deciding to go new apple mobile but leaning back toward pixel.
Also enjoying the workout playlist from last week.
