7·19 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.

16·23 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.

611·2 months agoEvery nation subsidises their various manufacturing industries. Why do people keep pretending like the American auto industry wasn’t built and maintained on subsidies?
