Google wants to imitate Apple pricing without the build quality, customer support, or performance to compare. Sales will tank then be on sale half off by Black Friday in some regions.

20 TB at that price range could brankrupt some small cloud providers. Selfhosting would be much easier without having to worry about space. IF the price stays the same, but we'll see.

Ya but it was us doing it, so it's perfectly fine. Now that others are doing it, it's bad.

Code Red! Code Red!

Next you're going to tell me content on sites like Reddit are mostly marketing agencies and their bot farms pushing their products, celebrities, and their agendas. 😱

Wankies having a meltdown and resorting to downvotes in these posts is just hilarious. They'll soon be pushing a "EVs are badfor the environment" narrative with cherry picked research, deflection and whataboutism.

I mean I would at least pay more than they currently make by serving me ads based on all the bullshit.

It never fails to amaze me how purposefully dense people can be. There are literal thousands of more users who will use the app for free and ignore the minor inconvenience of ads by simply ignoring it or using an adblock. Believe it or not, the universe doesn't revolve around your personal needs. That 1 cent from a user becomes thousand with thousand users and grows thousand more if it's actually good. But you know all the ins and out of app dev since you mention lunar program approach. 🤦‍♂️

Or better yet, how about you develop software that doesn't just take up whateber is currentlt available RAM and power???

I mean I would at least pay a one time fee of $3.50 and expect lifetime of updates. It's more than some currently make by serving me ads based on all the bullshit.

I agree that there are tons of shitty apps but this holier than thou attitude without any experience of their own as app developers is fucking insane. Be the change you want to see, instead of being angry at other people, all the time.

There's a reason most of the regular posters on reddit and (probably lemmy too? it isn't hard to automate these things) are likely run by marketing agencies. Post relevant posts 90% of the time, comment occasionally, and then sneak in a post or ad disguised as an article rest of the time.

All run by virtual assistant in some third world countries for that human touch.

better, lmao. They're switching to apple because they want their staff to be obedient little guinea pigs that that won't tinker with their phones but are tracked and monitored just the same like all Apple users.

So better for surveillance, of course they are. That's why they're still allowed to operate and bend over to every request by authoritarian nations. But you do you.

ya, it's all totally real and none of it is faked for marketing purposes to get more attention to their account at all… nope

Some people really do believe everything on the internet.

I see you don't like "bad software designs" and I agree the devs are slacking and not working on the specific problems of yours, can you please make an lemmy alternative, or fork it with "good software" designs from the get-go, please?

Everyone who doesn't think music isn't getting worse should post examples of recent good music they like. As a lot of people who claim this often like generic shitty music.
