Everything Apple iOS 18 Will Do, Android Already Does
  • They said it’s free for 2 years with any new purchase of iPhone since iPhone 14; and now they’ve extended it for 1 more year. No one has had to pay for any of it yet - and it’s unknown if/when/how it’ll be a paid service

  • If you have an Android phone have you tried Beeper Mini
  • I agree, but Apple built this tech for their users, and for whatever reason people choose to use it.

    Some people choose not to use it. So why expect Apple to open their walled garden? If all your friends are inside and they love the flowers, maybe the answer isn’t to ask for free flowers from inside, but either go in yourself or choose to stay outside without the flowers?

    Isn’t this like going to someone’s house and not liking their cooking, and then demanding they order pizza for you to accommodate what you want?

  • Google witness accidentally blurts out that Apple gets 36% cut of Safari deal
  • “36% cut of safari deal”

    is very different to

    “Google pays 36 percent of its search advertising revenue from Safari to keep its search engine set as the default in Apple's browser”

  • Google witness accidentally blurts out that Apple gets 36% cut of Safari deal
  • This summary literally strips out the most important part 😂

  • Apple Shrunk the iPhone’s Carbon Footprint. There’s a Way to Shrink It Even Further | Ensuring users can hang onto their phones as long as possible would help reduce the biggest source of emissions...
  • I agree with this in principle.

    However this would only make Apple stronger and android weaker.

    Apple already does 6 years of updates, whereas android manufacturers are lucky to provide 2 years. Imposing such terms of android manufacturers will make them leave the market - thus reducing competition.

  • The alleged is probably more a policy thing.

    Like where does the organisation draw the line between “obviously guilty” and “obviously not guilty” - there has to be a bar set somewhere. And right now, it is the legal definition.
