I guess the audiophiles can enjoy that if they're willing to pay whatever ridiculous price it's going to be, meanwhile a lot of us are just enjoying our music on our average relatively crappy headphones/other devices and would get little benefit from hifi anyway.

No, I had a readthrough of all that before joining to make sure I'd be a good fit here. I was more just curious if there was often-seen Lemmy culture in general as there is on many Mastodon instances :)
Thank you!
Thank you for both your labor, and for caring.
Thank you for all the tireless work. I can't even imagine how slammed all of you must be right now.

Trusting this thing would always be a bad idea.
I'm about to the point where I'm just going to go back to pirating. The value of streaming services was in their convenience. I was willing to pay money for that, but the more fragmented and complicated all of it gets, when I can just pay for 1 VPN and go to a site and click a few links...
I imagine you can count on one hand the people who have Dragon Age 2 as their favorite video game ever of all time, but I'm one of them.
My previous #1 was Chrono Trigger. Other ones that are way up there are Final Fantasy VI, Phantasy Star IV, Phoenix Wright original trilogy, Guild Wars 2, Star Wars: The Old Republic, Hakuouki original (not the remakes) and Reimeiroku, Uta no Prince-sama Repeat, Quest for Glory 1-4, Suikoden 1-3...
I've had a Flip 3 for about a year and I honestly love the phone, but more for the style/fun factor of the flip over the actual usefulness. I was a huge fan of flip phones in the feature phone era and hated having to switch to candybar, lol, so I had to give it a try!
Pros for me:
- Looks very cool, flip phone nostalgia value
- I have some mobility problems and being able to set the phone on a table to use it as opposed to having the weight stressing my hands is nice
- Great for reading ebooks in a 2-page view
- Can see notifs, quick check music, dismiss alarms etc without opening
- Fits great in small pockets
Cons:
- This particular model is so ridiculously slidey on the outside that it won't even stay still on a level table so a case is 100% required, but hopefully other foldables will avoid this lol
- Relatedly, not exactly a big case variety for this style of phone
- worry of "what if the screen cracks" hanging over my head
It's been a fun purchase, but I'm not completely sold on the necessity or usefulness yet. If my screen is still okay by the time I'm ready for a new phone in a couple more years then I'll call it a good purchase. So far I haven't had any problems or signs of issues at the folding point, hopefully the trend continues, but I do make a point to leave the phone open most of the time when I don't specifically need the folding functions.
I hope that newcomers to the fediverse come to understand that defederation is a feature, not a bug.
