Yeah. Really no way around it. This Pixel Launch was a bad show. You could see how much money was spent on AstroTurfing celeb endorsements and hosting. The staging and presentations were less engaging than QVC. There were no big reveals. It felt horribly inauthentic.

And this is for PIXEL TEN. The TENTH Pixel was something of an afterthought in most of the demos and presentations. Just remember how wild the reactions were for iPhone X.

The hottest trending topic in tech right now is the price hike on Playstation. Google completely dropped the ball here.

@gerardoemanuel@techhub.social spec for spec yeah. That's a pretty close fight.

At this point, I kinda cant care much which skin is on any one phone. I get people have this visceral reaction to aesthetics, but as long as all the core android bits are underneath, it's all the same stuff. I think a LOT of people dont like various skins mostly because they're a TINY bit unfamiliar.

"I had to look in a different menu for this option, and homescreen animates in a slightly different way, so now I HATE this skin!"

They all perform great now. It's not like the dark days of Touchwiz, where you had to sacrifice 20% of your phone chip's compute power just to drive a janky animation engine.

Yeah this is messed up. YouTube is definitely messing with this topic. Searching with my alt account, it wouldn't show under "balatro". I had to use the whole title exactly for it to pop up. Apparently, TALKING about the issue is enough for YT to mute you.

I HATE playing that stupid game of rotating thumbnails and changing titles, but I've tried shaking this up. It still hasn't hit .5% of my subscriber count.

YouTube actively interrupts the relationship between creator and audience. I dont know why I bother anymore...
