I'm already out of the connector hell for several years by buying only devices with USB-C.
The iPhone doesn't have USB-C, I don't even consider buying one.

Even if companies keep trying to be anti-consumer despite regulations, it doesn't mean we need to stop trying.
Don't forget that, at least in Europe, governments are elected by Europeans so they're our representatives. Companies however only represent their shareholders, and their bigger ones in particular.
Wait until you hear the same Apple fans who kept repeating the iPhone is better because of the lightning port suddenly praise Apple's genius to switch to USB-C.
Not only it's not Desktop, the Linux kernel is buried under such an alien user space that it's has nothing to do with a Linux Desktop.
I know it's unlikely for your mother, but a very real risk is a government forcing Google to hand over your data.
You can have your own set of patches (and/or config) and still stay up to date with upstream.
You don't need to do a hard fork to modify it for your needs.
It also pushes developers to ensure their games run on Linux, even if it's through Proton
I'd be glad to see better competition to the Steam Deck but currently they're all very far.
They all run Windows and lack touchpads.
I agree that PC gaming has a lot of benefits, and it's also my preference, but if you want to keep a rig that plays current games at their best its not cheaper.
PC gaming is not cheaper than console gaming.
If you bought a state of the art PC during the PS4 era, it was more expensive than the PS4.
Then when the PS5 was released, if you wanted to upgrade your PC to be on par with the PS5 it costed more than the PS5.
I love PC gaming, but except for the cheaper games, it's absolutely not cheaper than consoles.
It's not that special compared to other 3rd party Reddit app, but it's still a very mature app and it's good to get it for Lemmy.
Jerboa is nice but it's not at the level of those reddit third party apps.
Don't worry, Apple fans will happily buy an official charger for 3x the price even if third party work perfectly well.
