But not everyone does right? I feel like you have to be a fairly big/popular channel to have sponsors. I’m pretty sure smaller channels can only depend on ad revenue.

I would hate it if I was just given a keyboard and told that this is all you can use, take it or leave it. I need the options.

Well, it’s a cat. Why wouldn’t it count lol, unless there’s something specific about cats in boxes today (haven’t used Lemmy today)

Edit: guess we’re doing cats in boxes today. Either way, I approve!

I’ve had several phones under $200 over the years. One thing’s been common. The stuff that sucks is the stuff that’s not clear from the specs. It’s the fact that something or the other just doesn’t work that well. I’ve had bad proximity sensors, bad gps, rather poor ram management (still there on my more expensive Samsung). It’s not the chip or the cameras that bother me, it’s the stuff like the quality of the sensors, wifi, bluetooth etc. After my last $200 phone, I bought a Samsung galaxy s20 FE 1.5 years after it launched. Soooooo much better than anything I’ve had in terms of consistency and not letting me down on the daily. So my motto is going to be old flagship, rather than new mid-ranger. And if I can afford it, new flagship I guess.

Of course they have the choice. But be realistic. There is ALWAYS someone willing to do something for money. Not everyone thinks the same way as you do.

The next person would do it then. I don’t see that as a solution.

I’m sure some people hover between them. The only reason I still go on reddit sometimes is that Infinity is still working. I think it would go to almost 0 if I genuinely had to use the official app.
