The 400$ one will also contribute to e-waste.

Just saying.

One of the issues indeed.

Here's a few more:

  • stringent and unnecessary hardware requirements
  • changing app defaults is cumbersome
  • Home version requires a MS account
  • right click menu costs more clicks than in 10

And so on and so forth...

Looks like it would be easy for MS to allow this out of the box.

The taskbar still cannot be pinned to the side? I stay with 10.

Still no properly customisable Start menu? I stay with 10.

Still refusing to let my older devices upgrade for no good reason? I stay with 10.

And a number of further reasons that make me refuse 11.

Stackoverflow gets quickly steamrolled by AI.

We're not 100% there yet, but the writing on the wall is there. Just my opinion, of course.

Help to improve the OpenStreetMap with StreetComplete!

This app finds incomplete and extendable data in your vicinity and displays it on a map as markers. Each of those is solvable by answering a simple question to complete the info on site.

The info you enter is then directly added to the OpenStreetMap in your name, without the need to use another editor.

This is either a work of singular art or complete and utter madness.

There's only one course of action: will try no matter the cost.

Also, thank you for using the metric system, fellow global citizen.

Does anyone have thoughts on Fleksy? Hasn't been updated in a long time, but typing is quite fast on it. Autocorrect works exceedingly well.

I have it installed, but miss some minor features. Swipe left to delete, to begin with. Hold to move cursor. Such small quality of life features. Or am I missing them?

What communities ("subreddits") would you like to see? (lemmy.ml)

Is there anything you'd like to talk about or share but haven't found a place to do so? What communities (or "subreddits" for all Reddit refugees) would you like to see?

This could be a resource for anyone wanting to start a community and find out what people are looking for, and a place to request a community you just haven't found yet.

Tap on a comment and it and the comments below it could collapse. Possibly have a colour to highlight collapsed comments. Maybe not the highest priority, but it would add some luxury. 💍😊
