Technology@beehaw.org•Ad blocking alive and well, despite changes to Chrome
5·9 days agoHonestly, it feels like it was written by either a Chrome or advertising shill.

Linux@lemmy.ml•I Installed Ubuntu Touch on My Phone in 2026 — Should You?
8·21 days agoI love the bleeding edge and all that comes with it, but I’m not willing to give up on a lot of the apps I use and to be honest, I don’t wanna give up on Material 3 Expressive either.

16·25 days agoI’m old, I like to own my music. I’ve never liked the idea of leasing music. I’m sure Spotify works wonderfully for some users, for me, Navidrome does everything I need of it.

39·28 days agoI genuinely thought a bunch of new businesses were opening locally and wanted to support them for their longevity, it’s only reading this that I realise they’re all just brands. It’s incredibly deceptive and they absolutely shouldn’t be legally allowed to get away with it.

Technology@beehaw.org•Spotify’s 3rd price hike in 2.5 years hints at potential new normal
251·30 days agoWelcome back to the land of yo-ho-ho, because these fuckers are overly greedy.
Reading this makes me happy.
This is the kinda cool stuff I wanna see people play with. But I get you that it’s not practical for real world use.

Technology@beehaw.org•People regret buying Amazon smart displays after being bombarded with ads
49·4 months agoI hate to be an I-Told-You-So type of guy, but surely you look at how they handle their tablets and knew it was why these things are so cheap. Honestly the best smart display I’ve seen so far outside of the DIY ones is the Pixel Tablet and that was underpowered as a tablet. It’s funny though, because smart displays will become ubiquitous eventually not just because they’re useful, but because they’re prime real estate; look at the Samsung fridges. I’m guessing more people will have to install a Pi-Hole just to make them bearable.
