Most of us in Lemmy know the importance of privacy and owning your devices in a big tech owned world (me included) but for once I thought to make the opposite question and ask if there are products by them that you actually use and enjoy them.

Important to say, I mean products you use even though there are alternatives, not monopolies like YouTube.

Not sure if it's big tech but anyways... The Stream Deck (not to be confused with the Steam Deck portable gaming console). This macro keyboard brought my productivity through the roof and now I don't understand how I went so long without it.

Just spent five minutes reading about it. I suppose if you use hotkeys and shortcuts a lot it'd be quite handy

I guess elgato could be getting to the point of big tech. They're basically dominating the streaming space.

Yes I guess you're right... I wouldn't know because I don't stream or create content. The device is marketing towards those types... But it's really a productivity tool that anyone can use.
