Just wanted to say that given everything this post is an amazing bright light of positivity and an example for me of why the internet exists. To connect people, trigger amazing discussions and be something better than what it is currently. Thanks for the great post OP and every amazing commenter. Love you all.

Man - how I hate that on almost every post that shows some vulnerability and shares their belief we have lemmys trying to convince people about it not making sense.

Be respectful guys. Thank you to all the upvoters of the actual content - I see you.

Yeah.. I disagree. One only thing that I got to give to bluetooth headphones is dealing with the cable - sometimes it's just more preferable to have no wires, especially during sport activities.

I'm still on the lookout for the next phone with a headphone jack. I was so hoping for it to be the next fairphone, but sadly that's not it. (Old small ZenFone was perfect but software support of Asus is ass)

EU has mastodon and other social media for example: https://european-union.europa.eu/contact-eu/social-media-channels_en#/search?page=0&networks=mastodon

Thanks for the post! I'd be interested in having a similar analysis but with USB c's - I already have most my devices use it and I think it would be a nice future proofing. Then again for PC's specifically I think I would go with your recommendation as well. Also have a Kingston data traveler from way back and it's still slow and kickin. Thanks!

Nice! Wasn't aware of this. Thanks for sharing

100% agree with this post. Mostly using google maps now for car route planning (still unbeatable in rerouting in case of car accidents etc. afaik).

I've been eyeing recently the Fiio Snowsky Echo Mini. I am searching for a budget non Android device that has no touch screen ideally.

The only issue with it that I have is that apparently it's very cheap feeling. I'd happily pay double the price for a higher quality device. Ideally if the battery was also easily replaceable but I know that you can't have it all haha

I should build one myself
