It’s even worse as PC gamer.

My Gaming rig literally sat there 4 years unused because of two kids.

Now I feel the urge to game again, everything in this rig is outdated. Spent couple hundred bucks to get it ready again and it was amazing getting back to building a PC.

Now do I have time for playing? Hell na, see you in three years upgrading again.

Look at all the lifes and resources thrown in the dumpster for absolutely nothing. True insanity.

Well, you pay with your data so there’s that…

Man, I remember upgrading from a GB Color to a GBA SP, finally being able to play in the dark without this weird magnifying glass / light attachment.

Good old times.

Wow. Revolutionary.

For such an early version the app is amazing!

Great work!

You expect me to feel sorry for people having Instagram and Threads?

Olive oil is your friend.

Oh, nice. Did not know that was a thing. Actually based.

Meta: “Oh no, anyway… Here’s Instagram Threads.”

I wouldn’t even download it if they paid me for it.

People expect to switch platforms and immediately have the same experience there is mind-blowing.

We all spent 10ish years (!) tailoring our experience on Reddit. It’s no surprise that you can’t replicate all of that within 2 weeks.

No bullshit official app, no account, no notifications. Easy.

WhatsApps main “killer feature” was being early in the market to quickly reach a critical user mass.

Doesn’t matter which competitor, people will install an alternative, see that only 5-10% of their contacts have it and will immediately uninstall.

I see potential in preinstalled messaging apps. But it needs to be cross-compatible between iOS and Android. Otherwise it won’t fly.

Many have tried, many have failed.

You simply need a killer feature to get people to change.

Ah, Deutsche Bahn. Gotta love it.

I actually have issues with wefwef now, gives me a lot of errors.

But I think the next days will be a little rough because of many new signups.

I think everybody checked the own posts for the karma they got for it. So I think it plays a huge role. Of course some people go too far and make it the only thing that matters about it. I won’t miss those people.

Paying a monthly fee and not even being able to see all content? No thank you.

That’s what happens if you try too hard to milk an existing franchise instead of going with your own ideas…
