what I take from this, though, is that even with the anger against Reddit, there’s no talk of leaving in the comments on that post!

you hate the site and all of their changes so much and it’s only been getting worse… why do you stay? even the content is already worse, and even worse on the subs that have the new Reddit tipping system… why stay?

They shipped the galaxy S6 with exynos in the US in spite of the royalty, because the loss from the fees was outweighed by having a more reliable, efficient and cooler chip (oh how times have changed)
