Pika

It's not just the tab s8, I have a tab s7 and it's super bright and obnoxiously loud even at the lowest settings. I don't understand why there is not more control over it.

I am actually debating canceling my yt premium sub over it and im going to twitch turbo, I have been progressively using yt less and less anyway and to be honest, the new price point (which was 13.99 for me) is not worth the benefits it provides. mobile queuing can be used via playlist or watch later, adverts are annoying but avoidable with new found apps approaching. Downloading for offline use is a joke, it barely has ever worked for me. Picture in Picture mode is buggy and for the most part I don't use it. This combined with the absolute crap recommendation system they have had the last few years(like seriously its all either stuff in my watch history or stuff that is unrelated to anything I watch). I'm sure they are just following every other company but, it might just push me off lol

Also to clarify your nuking account thing. I expect you signed up via either apple subscriptions or google play subs, both of which take a chunk out of the money given. So that might be what is going on with the price diff.

I was going to make a comment then I noticed the community. I agree you found a really unpopular opinion. I expect the downvoters are ones who didn't realize the community you posted to.

That being said, it's still early on, I'm hoping it stays alive. I miss some of the nitche communities as well but, a good portion did somewhat migrate, you just need to reach out and sub to them cause it doesn't show them very well.

that you can not! lol Thankfully theres ton's of options. I personally couldn't get into having communities be called magazines, I found it confusing to find what I wanted then I moved to lemmy and then it was somewhat re-enforced the decision when it was stated that the instance was being de-federated from some instances so I sorta just stayed.

I'm not 100% sure where the confusion is coming from so I apologize in advance for the ignorance. Yea universal as in you can do everything there. I'm not sure how the term universal would mean there can only be one. It would be counter productive to the freedom of the internet to have it that way. I would prefer to be able to access everything from one app. Would save a buttload of space on my phone and would make things universally easier by having the same interface across everything. I would prefer it to not be twitter since the platform sucks, but I wouldn't be against something like that and thats the wonderfulness of the internet, you can have more than one service doing the same thing.

The term universal and distinct are not mutual, unless I misunderstood the definition of universal somewhere

A good example of this would be pideon, I used to use that as a service to be able to access XMPP, IRC, Skype (back in the day), and google chat. Universal app that could be used for all my social needs, without having a monopoly.

I wouldn't be against multiple universal apps for Freedom of choice tbh. Like there's already matrix which is attempting to do something like that for chats with bridges, and the there's also beeper which uses the same framework iirc

huh, interesting the more you know. An app that is universal for all common things would be nice but, Twitter would need a MASSIVE overhaul to do anything like that. Facebook has a better chance of doing that just due to how broad it is(still wouldn't use it cause Facebook), twitter is far too limited for something like that

both depending on area and what I use for cleaning (body wash vs soap)

wait musk is pulling a card from ~~Facebook~~ Meta's playbook? interesting

this is gold, thank you

I made an account on both world and kbin, I gave up mostly on the kbin account, I couldn't find anything local that caught my eye and I didn't like the UI layout for it, that night be part of their issue as well

this one worked!
