It's a small computer that I don't really control with a horrible UI, horrible privacy, and nothing but perverse incentives. ("download the app!")

There’s no going back unfortunately. There’s no world where smartphones go away barring a new tech as significant and useful as a smartphone.

  • Why are you so sure? Have a look at Librem 5 and Pinephone.

    • I’m familiar with projects like them. I just don’t think any of them are going to break through in a meaningful way anytime soon, if ever. They have very niche markets. I hope they are always an option though.
