  • Are you getting that price in India?! Maybe you need to update the app?

    • The most popular Chinese keyboard app which is used by more than 450 million monthly users sends every key typed to Tencent in China.

  • Wish we could have the fediverse of instant messaging.

    Fediverse instant messaging could work like email, just like how someone with gmail id can send mail to yahoo id.

    username@whatsapp sending messages to username@telegram, that's how it could work

  • So many talking UIs are not intuitive on windows on these handhelds, but one can still install steam and use it in big picture mode to get a steam deck like UI.

    Also, there are launchers like playnite with many themes.

    • I've used Lemmy more in the past 12 hours than I have in the past month since signing up. All because of Sync.
