@DJDarren @mybuttnolie ?! You mean there’s people that don’t use it? That’s bizarre. It one of the most useful features. Specifically if you create a Smart Folder with recent screenshots. Like, of the last two days.

@dojan I disagree. President Trump has been chosen by the American voters in free and democratic elections.
Most dictators have been chosen in free and democratic elections.
“There will not be a next election. It will be taken care for.”
Pres. Trump.
“Democracy is a train and is just the means to an end and when we reach the station, we will hop out.“
Pres. Erdogan.
@Hotznplotzn that’s extremely bad indeed! However; if the President of the United States organises a manhunt against the chief prosecutor of the ICC, where can Apple go for a non-brutal regime? Don’t forget that the current prime minister of India, democratic chosen, just like a president of United States, is involved in a scandal revolving around the massacre of more than 1000 people too.
The best options - regime wise - are also the most expensive ones.
@DJDarren @dzso I have not yet looked at the innovations Apple came up with in 2025 but you do have to give that company credit for the fact that they are working hard, and did work hard, to keep stuff accessible for handicapped people in whatever way handicapped.
Name one other non-specialised company that the same.
I can’t.
@cantankerous_cashew This saddens me. It means people don’t really get that it used to be “the medium message” but now it’s “the device is the message”.
The iPhone is a thing to communicate with others one-on-one
An iPad is a thing to watch videos on if you like and to scroll through the news.
A computer is a thing to work with, if you insist like a portable one.
A TV is a thing to watch stuff together.
Customers seem to long for one device that does it all.
Sad.
@parody you’re the lucky one because you use Siri in English, I guess. And then the results are deplorable. But, if you use Siri in other languages, say German (spoken by 130 million people) or Dutch (spoken by 25 million people) the results are totally useless or -even worse - completely wrong.
If it wouldn’t be Apple, the efforts would be endearing. But it’s about Apple, so it’s annoying and to the level of totally unbelievable that they messed up so badly.
@NotSteve_ @Sunshine that why I didn’t get the fuss.
Here in the Emirates; if I use Apple Maps, it still is “Gulf of Mexico”. So I thought you’re all lying! And making Tim and Trump look bad.
But now I get it.
BTW: Apple calls the Arabian Gulf the Persian Gulf.
Not nice.
;-)
@WhatAmLemmy @Alphane_Moon it’s a searchable and well-known fact that about 10,000 times the government of the Netherlands asked Apple to handover the keys of a specific iCloud account. It’s also searchable in the database of the Dutch government in about 6600 cases per year(!) Apple does hand over these keys. In about 3000 cases Apple refuses to do so.
@oakey66 @cantankerous_cashew even worse: give me two hours and I will give you 80 really handy IF THEN rules that Apple at this moment does not use. For starters: IF music is playing while AppleWatch is in workout mode, THEN skip that song in all-time favourites/ recommendations.
@TORFdot0 @meldrik why is it that so little people realize that the iPhone 13 mini was the best iPhone in the past 10 years?
Bigger = better? Forget it! I can do anything I want in my iPhone 13 mini and see people struggling with their phablets all the time.
Anyway, if the iPhone Air is bigger than the Pro versions, I’m seriously considering the Samsung flip.

@NIB @neon_nova a lot depends on where and when you work. 13 inch is the ideal size if you have to work at the backseat of a taxi or in a plane.
Once home or at the office, you simply connect your 27 inch screen to the 13 inch machine. For me this has been the ideal set up for over two decennia.
Lately, I’ve been working with the X-Real glasses. Works fabulous if you are in the backseat and you don’t want to disturb your driver with a bright screen.
