This shit comes up e very 5 or so yrs. It’s a nothing burger.

When they start fucking with notifs, I become nervous. I’ve seen how easily they can f this up. You can’t make everyone happy when it comes to to notifs but you can certainly piss off EVERYONE with the wrong choice.

Oh I disagree wholeheartedly. It’s not “comments”. It’s entire discussions and detailed descriptions and directions on how to get it done.

Any social media platform. Be it Reddit, Lemmy, Insta, Twitter ect.

You mention YouTube and you’re getting a discussion about the alternative. And some asshat will inevitably explain it for others that aren’t hip to it.

It’s point blank - in_your_face discussion about side stepping them. Over and over and over again every time YouTube is brought up. It’s not a “they aren’t worried about forum comments”

EVERYONE IS TALKING ABOUT IT. ALL THE TIME. ALWAYS.

This will eventually lead them to have no other choice but respond accordingly imo. Again, IMO.

You say I give our comments and discussion too much weight.

I hope you’re right. But poking a bear has no benefit. I’ll die on that hill.

You wanna learn about ways to sidestep YT? There is an old term used by old school pirates of the high seas.

You can find out more at “the usual places”.

No need to have discussions about this publicly when you have literally NOTHING to gain and something to lose.

Talk about it in the correct channels. Not in a fucking Reddit comment section. Why this method of security is worth clutching your pearls over is absolutely comical as if it’s difficult to comprehend.

But go on, pretend your Superman and ____ is beyond any semblance of being squashed. GL with that, pal.

Pal, any and every discussion about YouTube inevitably ends with it.

I think eventually, banning of entire Google accounts isn’t out of the question. I didn’t believe this 5 yrs ago. Today, I think it’s quite possible. They have their 100 MILLION YTP subs.

I seriously doubt banning the entirety of… non-conforming third party app users is something they would loose sleep over if it means stopping that in its tracks.

I’m just spit balling here. But I still don’t see the pros of rubbing your thumb in their face with it, publicly.

I know, API, Spoofing, Ect.

I know. You’ve more faith in that than myself. To actually believe there isn’t anything they can do to go the extra mile and end it, seems extremely nieve imo. It’s just my opinion at the end of the day.

Once you make a public mockery of them, and their name is synonymous with ___ then you’ll maybe get their full attention that we might not wish we’d receive in the end.

Nope

People really need to just stfu about a certain other app.

If ya know, ya know. Otherwise stop advertising it you morons. Of course, it’s the internet and nobody can keep a secret but ffs why does every single gd post about YT have to be about ___ in the comment section.

STFU about it!!

When you mention YT and IMMEDIATELY bring THAT up publicly, you’re not helping anyone. Publicly shitting all over Google with it isn’t the brightest idea in the world. Good Lord, this is why we can’t have nice things…

The market simply isn’t there to be a viable option to manufacture both size screens. Unfortunately, you’re the minority and your needs aren’t important enough to change their manufacturing process.

It would require a lot to mass manufacture both sizes at the pace these factories pump these things out. It would effect their bottom line and there’s not enough ppl that want small phones to make it worth doing.

I hate that for you and others. But it’s just how it goes.

I mean, I absolutely loved this version of Android but I’d never go back beyond Android 10.

10 was a huge step for the OS. I’d like to forget Lolipop all together…

Oreo was the one that I hated the most. Without question. It completely fucked notifs.

I struggle to understand why in 2024 you are dieing on the hill of a headphone jack. It’s over. Let it go.

There’s no argument you can make that will have any logic to it. There once was, but that time has passed, pal.

I am 99 percent sure if a guy had a jack on his phone, yet were listening to stuffs via BT headphones and they died, he wouldn’t have a set of wired headphones on him.

And if I just so happen to have some wired ones on me to offer him, he’d probably be like,

“nah, thanks. I’ll just charge these for 15 mins and it’ll last another 3 hrs”

…

Let it go…

That camera pill is absolutely hidiouus. As per usual.

Nah. Mainstream phones aren’t going backwards. Cope.

When’s the last time I saw someone actually use a wired set of headphones. Hmm. Yeah, I got nothin. 😂

Enjoy your midrangers or Chinese alternatives.

Regarding the size of the phone, there should be a option.

r/android comment section giving the expected behavior as usual. These news sites know how to be a puppet master, I’m telling ya.

Webite wants to push pro Pixel discussion:

Proceeds to drop a article with a sensationalist title that triggers said Pixel owners.

Comment section is immediately filled with folks declaring how great their Pixel is.

This tactic flip flops between OEMS. It’s generally in Samsungs favor but not always.

They’re really running out of shit to write an article about I see. This is obviously a non-issue. But those sweet, sweet clicks…
