Chat does this by being a long-form community where topics will remain from day to day unlike the megathread, and it is distinct from c/chapotraphouse in that we ask you to engage in this community in a genuine way. Please keep shitposting, bits, and irony to a minimum.

As with all communities posts need to abide by the code of conduct, additionally moderators will remove any posts or comments deemed to be inappropriate.

Seriously, they suck. Do people outside the west even use them? I think the user interface sucks even. I wouldn't hate them as much if their users weren't basically cultists.

I used an iPhone for 10 years. I never liked it. I had a Mac for 5 years. I never liked it.

I think it's worth pointing out that the Apple ecosystem is really good, too. iMessage may be annoyingly closed down, but it is so nice to be able to text people with my keyboard

Huh? I basically never use my phone to access Whatsapp, although it doesn't have an official Linux client the web interface is good enough.

This may be a US/anti Facebook thing, but I don’t use WhatsApp. Also, I religiously shut down notifications from my browser because so many sites work their way in there

Ya, if I was using airpods the UX would probably be much smoother. You have to go all-in Apple to get the ideal experience.

I am kinda stuck with Apple because I am the type of person to obsessively take notes and there is no more seamless experience than the notes app, as feature light as it is
