Eh, it’s a good start but I wouldn’t call it awesome. It needs a lot of improvement, like letting me set a wallpaper for one.

This is crazy. Google is delaying a competitor to Apple’s network so Apple can support it better? Of course they’re going to slow-walk it.

New? Nearby Share has been around for at least a year. The issue is no one knows about it, because as usual Google is horrible with branding.

They should have just called it “Google Beam” or something like that.

Can we just get a new Pixelbook instead?

One note I noticed about USB-C dongles and headphones is that they need to be powered, whereas traditional headphones do not. So the headphones draw power from the phone, which then hurts battery life.

If there is one thing Google is committed to, it’s being unstabally committed to all of its products.

Probably because the cat is already out of the bag there. Hard to reign them back in and they’d have tons of bad press if they do that.

For exactly the reasons you state - Google doesn’t want ad blockers in their browser.

TWiT is definitely in trouble. The last time I listened to them, one of their advertisements was for… doing advertisements on TWiT. They were also pushing their subscription every chance they got.

Their whole network comes off as a bunch of boomers complaining about technology. I don’t think they’ll be around much longer.

Yeah, this just happened to me with Authy. Doesn’t work with Authy, but it does work with Google Authenticator.

The fact that Lemmy doesn’t require you to confirm the 2FA code before enabling it on your account is nuts. This needs to be fixed.

Funnily enough, people are already referring to “tweets” on Threads as “threats”

People do, but ease of use will trump it every time.
