Apple has much better support for their phones, you can get iOS 17 on Xr which was released in 2018. On the other hand pixel 3 which was also released in 2018 lost official support with android 12 but of course in android you could just flash a custom rom and call it a day. So I don’t think it’s fair to say you need to upgrade every “couple” of years given the average user probably upgrades every 3-4 years regardless if they use iOS or Android.

I personally use it for manga and following japanese artists who seem to post art and have discussions there

The only thing it’s missing is haptic feedback, would’ve been perfect if it got that

The cost will be spread out on an instance by instance basis due to which the cost per user will be low and if not they can also host their own instance which doesn’t cost a lot. If it’s something around $5 a month I wouldn’t mind paying to support a service I plan on using everyday.

This made me laugh more than it should have

Man i really hope Reddit dies and people move onto decentralized networks, in time I’m sure we can figure out how to index a decentralized network for search engines completely replacing Reddit.

Can’t wait to try beyond, thunder is super buggy on my phone with infinite loading for a lot of stuff.

Man I love how new apps are coming out everyday. It feels like I’m witnessing history in the making, in the next 5 years we can probably talk about the time when Lemmy was getting a new app everyday.

I’ll keep downloading new ones until i find one that feels like home. Still waiting for infinity to make a Lemmy app.

I feel like for most people who aren’t that into technology the concept of a decentralized network can seem a little overwhelming given most of them are used to social media that is controlled by one company.
