I believe we are also looking at survivorship bias.

A vast majority of small devices fail sometime in the first 10 years they are made. Some are designed that way, some are used heavily and broken after a while, some will stick around until their battery becomes a spicy pillow. Lithium will eventually stop working so no matter what, that small device that you cant replace the battery WILL die.

But some devices have parts that are repairable and they tend to stick around.

What kinda stuff do you like on youtube?

Some instances have different ways of making money. TILVids for example shares money from donations with the creators. Theres also support buttons that help creators out. As well as ads on some instances as themes. Most are just nonprofits trying to do good in the world.

Its not as popular for the same reason your on fediverse, the interface allows anyone without ads to see your videos. The insentive does not always need to be $$, it most cases, its community building.

A nap does sound good.

Take a look sometime at the top videos of !peertube@lemmy.world or https://piefed.social/f/fediversevideos to see some great videos! Creators all over the fediverse.

One of my favorite videos on fedi: https://videos.elenarossini.com/videos/watch/2909e4a0-6424-4a74-a936-d15812268a3c

I myself host a peertube instance and its pretty easy to use.

Chatgpt is wrong BTW. But yeah its been there for a long time.

Itch.io Has some fantastic games :)

One of my favorite (that works on the SP!): https://tangramgames.itch.io/tobu-tobu-girl-deluxe

My wife and I still have all three of these systems. All three still work. They are still fun.

Oh god they are getting rid of adblock on Android too :D

Such a good idea!

Same. I think I got one on accident too.

I did not do well:

“I scored 9/28 on https://jsdate.wtf/ and all I got was this lousy text to share on social media.”

Ive been a dev for a long time. Im glad im not doing javascript all that much anymore.

That’s a good combo.

I’ve seen others get the battery replaced, but it heavily depends on the phone. Samsungs can be pretty cheap from what I hear.

My pixel phone is a ticking bomb.

You can put other OSs on the fairphone instead of their defaults.

But yeah it’s frustrating no matter what there is a downside of just owning a stupid phone.

And some phones already have replaceable batteries.

It’s so silly, we are going back around.

I have this phone (6a). I put in the survey to get the 100 but so far I haven’t seen a single $. Meanwhile I’m sitting on a fire hazard.

If they just made replaceable batteries, this wouldn’t be an issue. My next phone is going to be the fairphone.

Search is unusable because of shorts. Also I want the ability to turn them off.

So Canada, how are they?

Super easy. You can also do basic triangulation with some specialty hardware.
