No vibration at all? That's a really strange choice...

You know, this explanation isn't wrong, but having a printer manufacturer in your analogy show up as a victim just feels wrong.

That's kinda how it used to be.
But I guess there's enough idiots now defending microtransactions with such clever takes like "nobody forces you to buy those!"

I don't know why, but personally it really rubs me the wrong way.

It's not really "false advertising", since it's not a paid app, but still...

Real open source alternatives exist, but they require Spotify Premium to actually stream music legally straight from Spotify.

Seems like Organic Maps aren't saints either.

Apparently the recent lack of updates on F-Droid is due to them including referral links for hotels and refusing to remove it or make it an opt-out feature...

Here's a relevant issue if anyone's interested: https://github.com/organicmaps/organicmaps/issues/7218

//edit
Looking at the discussions it's even worse, the devs try to argue that F-Droid is being unfair and referral links shouldn't be "misclassified" as ads...

Yeah, he never did nothing for me! Fuck him!

It wasn't a back door, it was a safety feature working as designed. IIRC it didn't have any modern security implemented, because it's very old.

Also, the link from the OP doesn't mention that, but the trains in this story had locations of competitors' repair centers coded in, and were apparently set to auto-lock if they detected sitting in one for more than 10 days...

This is the exact type of comment that led the dev to abandon everything.

It's not "the incest game", the topic of incest barely even appears only if you make several specific choices in the game, and even then it's never painted in a good light.

Yeah... They didn't remove an app review, they removed a rant.

I think you're just being pedantic here.

I'm pretty sure they meant when messages are sent using the iMessage app - from the point of view of iPhone user distinction between iMessage protocol and SMS/MMS doesn't matter.

They're way ahead of you, they already started implementing it in Chrome.

They didn't blow any whistles, the proposal was public and lots of people spoke out against it already.

Besides, I like Vivaldi, but they're part of the problem.
The only reason this discussion is happening is because everyone and their grandma decided it's a great idea to re-skin a browser built by an ad-company and expect them not to abuse their position.
