Unlock the bootloader and have mobile Linux options, and I'll take a look with more than a "neat" attitude. I'm done with all these bullshit closed ecosystems.

Edit: I realize this is the android community, but my stance regarding the bootloader still stands.

It's an Internet Explorer meme. In the same spirit as those of yore...

To name a few:

Calling yourself Americans, after the entire dual continent. There are two continents and many other countries in the Americas, you know... [I know you know. And, what are you supposed to call yourselves, 'USAians'? 'Americans' makes more sense and is easier to roll off the tongue. But it's weird.]

Holding the door open for me. Smiling at me on the street. Those are sure signs of a swindler, but it's the norm in the USA. [I am not suggesting USA folks are swindlers, only that those actions are what swindlers in much of the world use. USA people are generally super nice and a genuine pleasure to be around.]

Turning right on red light. Red means stop. It's weird and confusing.

Edit: I added a third thing.

I wouldn't call them 'better' alternatives. They're easier to install for sure. Personally, I've used revanced, newpipe, and libretube and love them all. I stuck with newpipe, since that's what my family uses now, and it's easier to troubleshoot when I have it too. And revanced takes some steps, more than just "install this package, done".

Because you have to choose: children or Festool. Only the few elite can have both.

I used this scene in a cybersecurity training session. I knew it got the point across, when our resident ad-clicker asked me for advice to avoid that situation.

E: she asked for advice for her home computer, as she didn't understand that "at home and at work" meant "at home and at work with any device, not just work's"

Is the US still considered first world, or has it been recategorize as second world yet?

Sheep come in many age groups. I have an iphone for work, and I have turned off iMessage.

"why don't you have an iPhone?"

"I do, unfortunately. But turned iMessage off because it's shit."

"But now your messages come in green bubbles. It's annoying!"

"Send your message in Teams"

Kind of like adding a little chip to the charger cable of a cellphone that identifies the charger as a brand cable and without that chip, the phone won't charge or use the perfectly good cable for data transfer. If that sounds familiar, it's because that's what Apple did/does.

E: fixed autocorrect
