An abandoned community for the Philippines and all things Filipino! 🇵🇭
Started out as a Reddit alternative during the blackout from Jun 12-21, 2023 with over 1k members in just a few days. Fizzled faster than the "I Didn't Do It" kid after a month until it became the internet's Centralia in less than a year.

This month’s Ask PHlemmy: What's a now "obsolete" technology you miss?
I miss DAPs, particularly Zune. I still have mine lying around and working but support for it (e.g. music store, software) is gone now. Smartphones have third-party apps but the Zune UI is much better and a DAP just play distraction-free music.
I had this Hitachi audio player –

It was robust and light. The 🔋 life was OK. Had more than enough storage so I put my other files on it. It was an audio player and a usb drive for me. 1 downside was that it wasn't fast. There was a bit of lag when I pressed a button and the thing appeared on the screen. So I couldn't press many buttons very fast. It wouldn't keep up.
I lost it a long time ago. Idk how.
