The problem is, and I’m pretty sure that’s the reason nothing will change, the problem is that people act like corporations have some kind of obligation to act morally. Then they are angry at apple, Microsoft, Monsanto and co.

Corporations are a fucking tool, that try to maximize profit not more, not less.

What everyone has forgotten is, that there should be people setting the rules and optimizing this tool for the best of the people. Instead we all accepted these neo liberal bullshit, where we allow corporations to influence the law. And, oh wonder, who would have thought, these fucking tools use their money and influence to maximize profit even though everyone but the stakeholder suffers from it.

Renewable energy is an example, how in the world can someone prefer burning coal or oil instead of letting the wind turn a fan? But because big oil companies have a way to big part in creating those laws, we fuck the planet until it’s too late and when it’s too late, everyone will blame the tool for it. Which won’t change a fucking thing.


You should never pay a blackmailer, because that incentives blackmailing. Still, everyone pays, because that causes the least pain

Same with this, they can bluff all they want; in the end, they won’t not sell their devices in Europe, because that would mean lost profit and the least pain is complying.

Go die in a dirty back alley apple, you deserve it


Second that. AI these days: as if nobody here could create a screenshot from its steam library: like [email protected] already did. I bet prompting AI even took longer to create that shitty version of a steam library.


Wow, thats expensive, wasn’t aware it got that expensive. I bought it for 5 bucks or so a few years ago.

To be honest, I would still pay, if I hadn’t already, it’s that good.


I second that! Been using it for ~4 years now and I so much prefer it to the old launchers. After installing it I completely stopped testing new launchers.

Does anyone still remember the old (2010) launcher called slide it. Unfortunatly it was discontinued and I have always been searching for an adequate replacement. In Niagara I have found it.

Anyway, back to why i like Niagara so much. With every other launcher the workflow is like this:

  • swipe up for menu
  • swipe 2-5 pages left or right till you reach your app
  • click your app icon

which takes ages and is tedious.

On Niagara I just swipe along the left or right edge until the letter my apps name is starting with appears and click the icon. That’s it.

Having notifications beneath your favorite apps and an included media control app when audio is playing is superb. (I’m using the pro version). Calendar is aCalendar btw.

Best few bucks I have ever spend for some android app.
