Nah, I get that we're all good at different things. But people should be good at doing basic research and troubleshooting.
We use computers all the time. Many of us use cars all the time. And we know how to fuel them up, check and top-up oil, add wiper fluid, check coolant, etc. There's also the manual to refer to if we don't know.
Same shit with PCs. But people aren't willing to put in the bare minimum effort to do shit, and companies take advantage of that to ruin it for everyone.
Adblockers will fix part of that. Using the "web" link on the results will make the search a lot better, too.
Can you put gas in your car? Do you know how to check your oil and add more? Can you put wiper fuild in? Do you know how to check coolant levels?
Most importantly: do you know how to RTFM to do this stuff if needed?
That would put you miles above the typical PC using idiot that we keep coddling by ruining things we use.
Because we keep feeding them stupid pills and encouraging them not to think. Microsoft was a pioneer of the whole "water down software and call it user-frienfly'" thing.
Idk mainstream users should learn to learn and empower themselves with knowledge.
The enshitification of hardware and software by constantly catering to the dumbest of people is hurting everybody.
Or users could maybe learn how to do things without having their hands held and treated like babies every step of the way; or at least how to search for information to find what they need... 🤷🏻♂️
Do you mean the ability to backup and restore your launcher config? If so, it doesn't get more minimal and awesome than T-UI
You'll want the F-Droid version as it is the most complete. It hasn't seen an update in ages, but it really doesn't need one. It's also all open-source, so you could always download the code from GitHub and do whatever you want to it
His boyfriend must be complaining because it doesn't benefit Starlink or something
"We don't need anything from Canada, but boy do we want them as a state"
Hmmmmm
They're just as bad for removing content for seemingly no reason. Often times they do it silently so you have no idea your post was removed.
The admins
The top mods
The redesigns constantly making it more shit as it goes
I actually get frustrated when I don't know how to do something and will spend the time to figure it out... So I may not be well versed in all those points, but I have at least some skill and knowledge in each section.
We don't all have the same 24 hours, but we should all have the same ability to at least refer to and/or seek out information to get us some understanding of what we're doing, and yet, here I am in 2025 working with people who are 30+ years old asking me "what's the Start button?"
