‘The tyranny of apps’: those without smartphones are unfairly penalised, say campaigners
-
You can't compare (what is arguably) the pique of human computing to modern phones.
...I miss the c64
-
Phone apps are nothing more than modern toolbars. And in case you forgot or missed this phase of the internet...
-
Because a Linux phone is objectively superior, duh
-
Isn't that standard behavior though? I've never seen anything that opens a URL directly instead of just showing it to you with an option to access it.
-
Linux is awesome, what are you crying about?
-
I have an app for that.

You're an idiot or you're trolling, I honestly can't tell.

That depends a bit on if it was advertised or not to have a laundry room. At least here in NL it is more common to have your own washing machine than to use a shared one so having a laundry room would be an extra to start with.
Still sucks though

Generally companies use service contracts to keep those things working so mo they wouldn’t be replaced often. They are just a piece of shit

YES full support! I have and am sending this from my smartphone but I'll stop going to your store before I download your stupid fucking app for a free mcflurry or whatever the fuck pisspoor excuse you have for installing malware on my devices.

Bruh someone's grandma needs help, we need to fix this computer, it looks like it's about to get stuck on zombo.com.

We want other options to be allowed to exist. This is "you just want everyone to be gay/trans/whatever" all over again.

Ill be part of that cult

Not too be an ass, but you meant "peak" right?
-
Even if they don’t outright cripple functionality, they’ll hound you endlessly to install the app.
Still don't understand the logic of doing that.
It's like saying,
"Our website is nigh unusable, please install our app instead. We pinky promise our app works".

yep, I know this feeling all too well - having a community and friends is important but even more so in cases like ours. Thank you for the comment, I hope you're doing better nowadays.

Tbf, my building also uses an app for laundry. However they also have a machine in the laundry rooms where you can purchase an NFC payment card and put money on it. So you can use it without the app. Is that not the case with yours? If not, that's 100% fucked

McDonald's wants your IQ too. Seriously, it's in their privacy policy.

I used a flip phone for a month to help curb my screen time addiction. The number of restaurants, stores, etc. that simply expect it of you to have a smart phone was eye opening.

Early 2000 wants its internet back
