      If you dont restrict yourself to only hardware then there is plenty of cool stuff. Im using git repo RSS feeds to inject changelogs directly into my veins and its great tbh. There are cool new open source TTS and STT models releasing, single camera motion tracking is getting really good, etc. You just shouldnt look towards commercial products for this excitement, because those are always just enshittified lock in traps. The real juice is in hardware independent open source software that wont fuck you without consent.

        Aurora Store (Play Store) apps’ updates? No fun. Not even good changelogs, just generic, unchanging (or slow / rare changing) ones.

        F-droid and FOSS in general, on the other hand? Lemme see what’s new. For each and every app.

      Yeah, thats the last time I was genuinely excited for something new. Before that it was usually gaming consoles, and the ps4 just wasn’t the excitement factor that ps3 was.

      Me too. It revived the feeling I had when I was teen when a new console was released. Never purchased a device so quickly since valves released the trailer
