Well when Karen asks for the 40th time how to add a new user to the system, Karen's getting referred to the documentation.

Tell me you're an app developer for a shitty device manufacturer without telling me

Hopefully you checked those app permissions before installing...

I believe the op literally said this doesn't apply to everything, and cited the Bluetooth speaker incident. I'm not sure what broader subject you are applying ops point to but carry on! You are free to install all the software on your phone you want, you do you, but I believe ops point remains. There are a huge number of devices that require no app to function, yet manufacturers are requiring an app, often requesting permissions completely unrelated to the purpose of the device. There is very little reason for this aside from information gathering.

I don't believe a Bluetooth speaker needs an elaborate application to work, the functionality of a Bluetooth speaker is complete without an app. I'll gladly miss out so rando sketchy companies do not get more than they deserve to know. You do you though

Yeah, if you tend to use your servers for pretty vanilla uses you may not have encountered it much. Once you get into the deep end, it gets deep quick.

No that's the case in the US too. I never ask why my employee wants time off, I don't need to know any more about their personal lives, they tell me too much already...

Once you have lived through library dependency hell, you care

/me peers at my $300 Samsung S10e bought 3 years ago, my $1200 Asus ROG Strix laptop, and my $400 TCL 4k TV and wonders if your quoted prices are inflated merely to justify your own pre-order. Not sure where your buying stuff but you should really shop around, those prices are horrendous...

I think that's the point, the people who care about things like the API changes have already made the migration, the rest of the losers stuck there in rubbit don't matter to us, and as other posters noted this is likely the group of people is productive. Who cares. Leave them behind.

Not sure what this vast collection of resources is that you're pining over. Theeye, among the vast majority of actual piracy resources, were never really on rubbit anyway.....
