I think that YT should open up APIs to make a better frontend for third party apps, like what Reddit had, at least to premium users.

If you aren’t signed into an Apple ID it’ll give you nag pop-ups.
If you don’t accept the iCloud T&C, even if you never use it, it’ll give you nag pop-ups.
If you haven’t set up Apple pay, it’ll give you nag pop-ups.
It’ll also give you a double nag pop-up for every new minor iOS version until you update it.
I’m sure I’m missing a bunch here.
Most Android skins. Even stock Android can get naggy at times.
And don’t even get me started on iOS if you haven’t done what Apple wants you to do. It’ll give you a pop-up at least once every day.
Oh, and Smart TVs? Don’t even think about having any control; you are a slave to the OS.
So you’re saying I can get away with anything as long as I somehow legally declare myself a corporation?
I thought Mediatek was even more closed off than Qualcomm.

Is OpenRecall secure as well? One of my biggest problems with MS recall is that it stores all your personal info in plain text.
YouTube is totally gonna copy this.
Can we have AI-capable PCs without the cloud nonsense please? Isn’t the whole point of local AI to reduce cloud reliance?
I just want to be able to corner hard and accelerate hard and do some spirited driving in a safe area without that info getting sold to insurance companies…
This is why I don’t use Adobe.
I’m so glad I saw the red flags from earlier and decided to stay far away from anything Adobe.
Anyways, this is the new business tactic. Start stealing confidential information by somehow forcing a new ToS change or update.
The NPUs are good, provided that they can be used the same way dedicated GPUs are used: By 3rd party applications to accelerate certain intensive tasks when you demand them.
However, shoehorning AI into the OS itself definitely screams buzzwords. AI and OS’s are polar opposites: You want an OS to be fast, predictable, and reliable. AI is currently slow, extremely unpredictable, and hallucinatory (i.e. unreliable).
Why are people downvoting you? I totally agree with you. Firefox has the upper edge (pun unintended) on the backend technology that causes them to resist Google’s greedy changes, but acts just like a for-profit company when it comes to the UI.
Look how much pointless whitespace their is on the tab bar. It was so “popular” that Chrome recently came in and copied that change. But Vivaldi just goes its own way, trying to make the most competitive browser it can.
For comparison, a single hydraulically fractured oil well uses over 100 times as much water.
From my experience, while LXQt uses ~20-25% less RAM than XFCE, it runs way faster and uses less CPU than XFCE.
Many large creators post on Nebula, and half my YT consumption has been replaced by Nebula
This PC optimizer app screams of the early adware PC optimizer apps.
Unfortunately, it’s Microsoft to blame for it being slow in the first place.
Reminder that because the Windows 11 taskbar is slower and buggier than the Windows 10 taskbar, it uses much more power due to the extra CPU cycles.
I’m fine with some basic telemetry about how fast the browser runs, but tracking my searches is creepy.
Just price it right and people will rent. For a single person this is all they really need.
