I used three Meta products:
Whatsapp, Facebook Marketplace, and Instagram. I’ve completely gone off Insta, I only really used it to see posts and reels my friends sent me.
I don’t really know an alternative to WhatsApp and Marketplace that I can use. I’m very careful to not interact with any Facebook advertisements on Marketplace though.
Yet Israel is also committing a genocide at this current moment. Even more so since they’ve blocked humanitarian aid to Gaza. All 3 points you’ve stated are really basic freedoms that aren’t really anything to celebrate or brag about in 2024. The post is about a state currently run by an extremist terrorist organisation that seized power. Comparing this to freedoms afforded by a democratically elected government in order to justify a defense of a genocide of people in a different country more than 3000 km away who happen to share a religion with the former state is honestly bizarre.
What country
“These colors don’t cum channel”
Range Rovers, unfortunate cars that they are.
Yeah, it’s about having the choice
I’d argue it’s a bigger moral choice than no usb-c display out. And the $8 dongle doesn’t resolve it. I find that I use wired headphones while charging my phone about 30% of the time, making 30% of my time using them either vastly inconvenient or time that I can’t use my wired earphones. The good vs evil comes in when you think about why they removed the jack - which was only to sell their wireless buds. There is no other reason that stands any questioning.
And it’s a phone that I would’ve considered if it had one.
I could list dozens of reasons but at the end of the day it comes down to having the option and making the choice, instead of having it made by some company. And as someone who repairs their own phones, 3.5mm jacks really don’t take a lot of space. It’s definitely not enough to make a substantial improvement to battery size. You question the point of having them, I question the point of removing them when they were (and still are) a universal standard with not many downsides.
Yeah, same, can’t get my friends to quit WA
