Maybe the Deck 2 could though.

This comes from a person that hasn’t been able to get one officially as Valve doesn’t sell it in Mexico officially… But hey, our USA neighbors get it at a fair price!

Maybe Nintendo doesn’t have fair prices here either, but at least I can grab it in a local store any time.

Yeah no, I have seen multiple businesses closing down due to poor marketing promotion/budget.

And then we all complain that we didn’t know about a certain product/service because they didn’t market it good enough (we have seen it a lot of times with movies for example, then they turn into obscure classics with the pass of time, but not really profitable), also some games that didn’t really made themselves known while in critical selling weeks?

Who is gonna be the brave soul to release a game when GTA VI appears? That would be marketing suicide, no matter how good your game is.

Zerotier does not use wireguard and even in Android I can see a slightly bigger drain while using a VPN app, as it is using resources in the background after all (you can easily see that with adb or a rooted device), if you are not a battery freak then that’s fine I guess, I live in a 3rd world country where I can seed torrents 24/7 and ISP will never care, and VPN are a hassle to me at best, I only use them when I needed, AKA when I want to bypass CGNAT and access my Synology NAS/Plex server.

I heavily debloated my Nvidia Shield TV and whenever I activate Proton VPN I can see it takes its resources which might affect my also heavily customized Kodi setup lol, that’s why I don’t like to run VPNs there either.

Yes, Pi-hole helps, it is not as good as an inbuilt adblocker or a more capable one like Ublock Origin, but it is better than nothing :)

Yeah that works too.

Honestly, BOTW in the Switch 2 compared to how I tweaked it in my modded V1 one doesnt looks like a huge difference to me 😅 (colour corrected to make it seem more like an OLED display and overclocked the unit to get close to 60 FPS in most scenarios).

Do you have an iOS device? I remember mentioning battery drain issues with either Zerotier or Tailscale due to poor background process management with iOS.

Yes, I don’t think anyone thinks otherwise, but built in adblockers are better than DNS adblockers, which consecutively are better than nothing lol (also you could pair both I guess and get an improved experience).

Yeah, it might look similar, but feature and gameplay wise would be lacking think of the enhanced games for the New Nintendo 3DS for example, some games worked in the older system… But experience was subpar.

Ah, here we are again at the stage of hating the company that makes the games but loving the games it makes…

Just curious, any other companies that ring that bell?

You got downvoted but it is true, it doesn’t while other browsers do, and block ads which is a nice plus.

Firefox offers extension support and that is a reason to forgive it a lot of lacks… But we shouldn’t be conformist about the fact that the Android/iOS client needs a lot of work.

Perhaps if you tell us which DNS you are using.

I have tried it and while it works, DNS adblocking (and the hassle to remember to turn on the VPN for browsing) doesn’t works as good nor is as smooth as using a browser with AdBlock support, or Ublock Origin extension.

Apple does not allow other browsers than Safari on iOS. All other browsers are just reskins of Safari.

And yet only Brave blocks ads effortlessly…

Of course it is an Apple issue in the core, but unless Firefox includes a proper ad blocking frautre (no add-ons needed because that’s unlikely to happen in iOS) is also a Firefox issue, and I I’d say the main reason why it loses market when competing against Brave in such a closed environment.

I choose Brave instead of Vivaldi in Android as a second browser just because of 1 feature:

Vivaldi won’t force dark mode in all the websites WHEN the device is in dark mode only, it includes a toggle to on or off only and it doesn’t care if the device is light or dark.

I use automatic light/dark mode and Brave and Firefox (with the Dark Reader extension) works well with this.

Also the Vivaldi team is aware of this lacking feature since years ago but they can’t seem to fix it somehow… That’s fine by me, I can work my way without it.

Because it is still Chromium based and it means it is fast on Android, plus it comes packed with an adblocker by default which works wonders in closed out systems like iOS, also as many browsers (not all of them) it supports account syncing which it is always a nice plus (I can use a good working version of Brave in all the systems and keep a good flow for example).

I main Firefox in pretty much all the systems, but the Android app is missing a lot of features like tab management, and the iOS client just sucks (Brave works better there despite being Safari based too).

Exactly, one needs to understand people near around you might have different tastes, is not so complicated ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Huh?

You might think this is an unpopular opinion, but for many it is a reality, I don’t know anyone in real life that liked the movies for example (my sister loved HP and Twilight but fell asleep with The Fellowship of The Ring).

Here in Lemmy is definitely an unpopular opinion.

LOTR is by no means a trilogy for everyone, I hope your guests liked the premise, or at least appreciated it (it was your day though, so the most important thing is that you had a blast).

Is there a remind me bot for Lemmy?
