This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Making them increasingly difficult to hold ("but design!" They cry) so you "accidently" have to buy a new one again.

If you want the good camera, you need to get the giant version of the phone.

If you want a phone that fits in human hands, you can only choose from subpar cameras.

Subscription to the camera on your own phone, capped # of photos per week and only basic adjustment/editing features for the entry tier.

User serviceability is intentionally not a focal point especially when it comes to anything a person has to use day to day. Any kind of tool or appliance- and especially electronic devices, forget about it. Luckily there are off the beaten path companies like framework and fairphone, but these are hard to market to regular joes and some are unavailable in a lot of regions.

Tech enthusiasts like presumably a lot of this comment section is are lucky there's at least something out there.

One must recognize that if those changes were truly not popular they would not have stuck.

80 cameras and nothing to do and no where to go

I don't use the ultra wide camera but I absolutely use the telephoto camera

The only things I need from my phone are:

  • Modem
  • Taxi apps
  • Forced upon 2FA SMS codes

Anyone who provides me with an alternative can just take my entire phone, fuck it.
