    You can use an adapter for a micro SD but you can’t shrink the size of a normal SD card, is my only guess.

    You can delete almost all apps on iOS except the obviously core apps that are necessary for it to function.

    Do you have some example searches that you made? I’m not a heavy search user and not a programmer but I’ve still found the experience on par or better for all of my general searchi…

    I fresh install to give myself a different perspective when I feel like I have too many 3rd party solutions to problems that no longer exist. Spotlight is better and I only casuall…

    Lol this is the same thing that's been repeated about DDG for over a decade. I had the same exact complaints and eventually switched back to Google since I was using !g bangs so of…

    There's always a compromise for me when adjusting scaling. UI doesn't scale correctly, bars get too big when I only want the text specifically to be increased, etc. I've settled on…

    I’m fine with BlueCruise but my free sub is up next year and that’s when I’ll look into comma hardware.

    That was the first thing I noticed when I recently went back to messing with Linux distros after 15 years. Booting into Ubuntu and having to use Gnome Tweaks or whatever it’s calle…

    For years I was begging to get better multitasking and more powerful apps, especially after they introduced the magic keyboard. They can take it all back now. I'd rather they stick…

    Doing a fresh install of Sequoia was the best move for me, too. I had an unnecessary amount of third party apps installed for no reason. I don't even use Ice for the menu bar anymo…

    I gave up on the normal iCloud tabs for over a decade now. But the Safari Tab Groups implementation is by far the best I've used. If I need to share a window, I just open it in a t…

    It's very confusing for new users, especially windows-converts.

    Mine is set to Kimi K2 specifically and it does that. I just used whatever was default at the time and it works well enough that I didn’t sub to perplexity or any similar services,…

    I don't even think Google has particularly good integration and they make Gemini. Although it was early when I was still using my Android phone, I went back to the old google assis…

    I feel like the only people who say that still are people that don't actively or daily use Apple products because macOS Tahoe is a joke. Jelly scrolling on the iPad mini was a noti…

    I have to switch to the black / white outline cursor or I will guaranteed lose my cursor. I also bump up the size significantly. Any time I use a coworker's computer station I lose…

    Out of the box on CachyOS with KDE Plasma, I don't even have windows remembering their positions across a multi-monitor setup. That was shocking to experience with a current-day DE…

    I also settled on CachyOS after distrohopping a few times in the past month. I had Brave at first but it doesn’t play well with shutting down on any Linux distro IME so I switched …

    I can't even look up chats on my work PC older than a couple days ago because it's automatically deleted. Emails last for at least a few years.

    My main gripe is with the iOS app. I actually think the Mac version is easy to use still and don't have that many issues with it. But on iOS, it starts on Home and if I don't alrea…

    I’m seriously considering switching off just because I hate how complicated their app has become. But I’m not a heavy user of stuff like safe documents, ID Cards, etc so it simply …

    Most of their failures are usually on their custom features instead of basic WebKit / Safari functionality, in my experience. As a basic browser it’s great, but I consistently have…

    I really don't see many similarities between Orion and Arc but I also didn't use Arc very much because I was pessimistic that it would stay free and consistently updated without an…
