It’s even worse as PC gamer.

My Gaming rig literally sat there 4 years unused because of two kids.

Now I feel the urge to game again, everything in this rig is outdated. Spent couple hundred bucks to get it ready again and it was amazing getting back to building a PC.

Now do I have time for playing? Hell na, see you in three years upgrading again.

Well, you pay with your data so there’s that…

Klar, wenn man die Leute fragt, dann finden das alles immer super und toll.

Wenn man dann aber konkret nachbohrt, zum Beispiel “mach doch mal Urlaub in der Heimat oder einfach in der Nähe”, dann ist’s schnell vorbei mit den guten Vorsätzen. Oder wenn man fragt, ob das Wochenende in Rom per Flugzeug wirklich sein muss.

In der Theorie unterstützen auch alle immer Windkraft aber wenn dann wirklich das Bauvorhaben in den Briefkasten flattert, dann gibts wütende Bürgerversammlungen.

Kurzum: Weniger labern, mehr machen.

Man, I remember upgrading from a GB Color to a GBA SP, finally being able to play in the dark without this weird magnifying glass / light attachment.

Good old times.

Wow. Revolutionary.

Olive oil is your friend.

Es wäre schon viel gewonnen, wenn man den Austritt aus der Kirche erleichtern würde.

Viele von uns werden ja in der Kindheit “zwangsaufgenommen”. Warum kann ich z.B. nicht mithilfe der Online-Funktion meines Personalausweises meinen Austritt digital erklären? Warum der Spießrutenlauf mit arbeitnehmerunfreundlichen Öffnungszeiten bei den Behörden?

Oh, nice. Did not know that was a thing. Actually based.

Meta: “Oh no, anyway… Here’s Instagram Threads.”

I wouldn’t even download it if they paid me for it.

People expect to switch platforms and immediately have the same experience there is mind-blowing.

We all spent 10ish years (!) tailoring our experience on Reddit. It’s no surprise that you can’t replicate all of that within 2 weeks.

No bullshit official app, no account, no notifications. Easy.

WhatsApps main “killer feature” was being early in the market to quickly reach a critical user mass.

Doesn’t matter which competitor, people will install an alternative, see that only 5-10% of their contacts have it and will immediately uninstall.

I see potential in preinstalled messaging apps. But it needs to be cross-compatible between iOS and Android. Otherwise it won’t fly.

Many have tried, many have failed.

You simply need a killer feature to get people to change.

Ah, Deutsche Bahn. Gotta love it.

I actually have issues with wefwef now, gives me a lot of errors.

But I think the next days will be a little rough because of many new signups.

I think everybody checked the own posts for the karma they got for it. So I think it plays a huge role. Of course some people go too far and make it the only thing that matters about it. I won’t miss those people.

Paying a monthly fee and not even being able to see all content? No thank you.

That’s what happens if you try too hard to milk an existing franchise instead of going with your own ideas…

The amount of content is already fine. You are actually able to have meaningful discussions instead of being comment No 1000 that nobody reads.
