Eww self censorship
Noticed the meme was censored so I tried my best to fill in the blanks based on the information I had
Hope it helps
What are the censored words, my enjoyment of this meme is now halved because of this, down voted
shitty, fucking
Meme ruined by censorship. Rip.
There gotta be a community for that out there somewhere.
with my phone from 6 years ago I could use a micro SD card as internal storage
my phone nowadays installs gambling apps I didn’t download and has rooting deliberately locked down
The Enshittification continues. Nothing is sacred.
same with windows 11. same functionality, somehow twice the system requirements.
And with “AI” this will only get worse. How much disk space will “Recall” snatch for their keylogger again, about 32gb?
not to mention ssd wear
The new android file permissions are actually terrible. It’s broken so much stuff and made the whole os much less useful.
Your android is getting slower? Ingl, I never noticed something like this in the past ~14 years of android.
If you’re still using your 14 year old android, then they probably hadn’t implemented the planned obsolescence feature to that phone yet. Sometimes they forget to do that with early models.
Every time i see an arm emulation handheld that uses android instead of linux my blood boils. The thing is, linux is scalable. Android and windows arent. If you have weaker hardware you have to put an older version of android or windows on it. Thats why you see recently released arm chips that only support up to android 8. If your hardware is too slow for linux you just use a lighter version of it. Also the features like suspend are just so good on linux handhelds.
This is just amother reason I bought a Pixel for GrapheneOS.
ios is bad but is android better
I was gonna say, this sounds familiar.
Really though, some times it’s by design. I remember back when you could jailbreak your iPhone (effectively). Those were the days…so much cool shit you could do on an iPhone back then.
One of the things you could do though was change your animation speed. You know, just how fast it would do those little swoops and sweeps and things like that when opening apps or transitioning or whatever. It was a little thing, but I appreciated being able to change it, a lot. I used to set it at 0 so everything was as snappy as possible. No animations, just pop pop pop. Like in Windows 7 when you turn off all animations and effects. I would experiment though sometimes with new iOS versions on other devices as well as my own when they came out. Don’t want to be left behind and be susceptible to security risks, right?
It didn’t take me long to catch on that they would, little by little, extend the animations times slightly as they got closer to a new major version number release. I noticed that when you would upgrade, they would adjust the animation speed again with the major release, but instead of slowing it down, put it back to normal. They basically made it so that when you finally upgraded to the new (slightly buggy) major version, you felt it ran better and were happy you did so. It was all a trick, and you were being manipulated. It didn’t run better, it just seemed that way because they slowed down the previous version’s animations. Now, I know how Apple thinks and works. It’s both to make sure you’re on the latest version they can get you on as well as try to keep you thinking they are always improving things and be happy you upgraded. But, it’s just a bit disappointing to realize that they’re manipulating you in little ways like that to keep you on-board.
Not the first time Google or phone manufacturers have taken some cues from Apple’s practices in this area. It seems like time and time again we see some people like Android users and Linux enthusiasts complaining about Apple’s practices only to be dismayed that Google or their favorite phone manufacturer starts practicing the very same thing. The fact of the matter is, Apple did ALL the research. They don’t care about all us nerds who see what’s going on. We’re the minority. The majority are happily manipulated in this way, unknowingly. Why wouldn’t they follow suit? Apple is WILDLY successful.
Wait, what’s happening to permissions on android…?
The missing words are “shitty” and “fucking”, btw. I feel like we’re getting crap posts like this from bots that aren’t willing to tailor their posts for places where naughty words are allowed. Or reposts of bots’ output. Either way, I’m tired of it.
I’m not a bot, I just didn’t know if the people here liked bad words or not. It’s just a nice middle ground I think. If you still don’t think it’s an original, I think I can send you the .xcf file, I just don’t remember if I deleted it or not

you can in fact swear on the internet, and we still know what the words are
Hey, we need some more positivity here IMHO. Thanks for contributing even if censored bugs some people. I thought the meme was funny and it made my yesterday better in a small way.
If you’re not sure, you can make a meme that doesn’t use them. If you think swear words are needed to emphasize your point, blurring them afterwards literally destroys your own point
Maybe it is, I don’t know. These distorted standards from the mainstream websites, and wierd social etiquettes have made thinking and writing my own toughts feel wierd, I’m literally censoring myself. What an interesting world we live in.
I think this is precisely why I have such a visceral reaction to blurring swear words and using euphemisms like ‘unalive’.
Language naturally evolves over time but I really don’t like the idea that it’s being disproportionately influenced by social media companies and their shitty algorithms trying to please advertisers. Yuck!
Yeah, can relate to that
And yet with Firefox+ublock it is still 10000000 times better than its competitors.
There’s only one competitor, apple, and also, I don’t think that firefox mobile is that good. It’s better than chrome, and I’m using it, but I don’t know why would a device with 12gb of ram, a high-res display, a processor that can run warzone can’t run the normal version of firefox with a different ui. I think it just splits development, and I don’t like how it’s always behind in development, and how it lacks features.
Not every phone has any of that, dummy.
Also I don’t really believe it is as easy to port as you are making it out to be.
Apple doesn’t have functioning adblock on safari. There are a handful of extensions that promise to and none of them work as well as ublock
