That's good to know. I'm surprised that the 2 I currently have to use chrome for aren't already on FF. As I said, I should probably send them an email and ask them to launch one for FF.

It's not an addon, it's extensions for services like klarna and zip that let you pay for things over time. Those 2 for example have apps that I can and do use but if I want to use them to pay for say concert tickets it's easier to have it all on my big screen so I can look at whats available and then copy and paste the number into the checkout.

It's not life or death and I can live without it. It is however the only reason I use chrome on my desktop these days.

I only use chrome for a couple of extensions that aren't available for firefox. I should probably reach out to those companies and request that they get a firefox extension working.

I haven't side loaded anything in years. In decades past I played around with custom roms and at some point I may look into the pixel roms for my older phones.

Aside from the usual issues that popup with any os for any device, I've had very few problems and none that stopped me from using my device.

I refuse to touch apple with someone's else pole. I like being able to install apps that aren't from the store and I can do that without having to hack my phone.

I equate apple to AOL. When you are new to tech apple just works but when you learn that there is more out there than apples walled garden you look at android that let's you do so much more and has so much more choice for hardware. Not to mention cost.

Sure they do but it usually includes "of the night".

What's ridiculous is your need to feel important and keep responding even if it's nonsense.

Your sense of good user experience is also ridiculous. It makes zero sense logistically or physically to make a phone charge wirelessly through an accessory on the back that makes the phone not stable while on its back. This has nothing to do with user experience and more to do with the user not understanding the limits of what they have and thinking that their opinion on this is special or unique, hint, it's not.

I'm sorry (not sorry) if me calling out the fact your comment added nothing to the discussion hurt your feelings.

Long story short. Get off the internet and tell your wife to either remember to put the wallet back on the phone or just plug the fucking thing in.

Seeing as you are completely missing the point, I'm done playing now. I also checked out your comment history and holy fuck are you out of your mind and disconnected with reality. Capitalism is not a great economic system but saying that communism gives people more choices is a sign of extreme mental instability.

That's an oversimplification. You can just as easily forget your regular wallet.

Again. These mag accessories are meant to be swapped out as needed. You can choose to forgo wireless charging and keep the mag wallet attached (that's fine) there are similar cases for phones without wireless charging.

My everyday wallet isn't a phone accessory, it's a slimmer wallet that lives in my car most of the time. When I feel the need to go even lighter I can swap out for one of the mag wallets I have. With the mag wallet on my phone, of course it won't charge wirelessly so I don't rock it all of the time. My wife also has a magnetic case with a slim wallet, she swaps that out when we go to concerts or shows where carrying a purse would be non ideal. Her phone also doesn't have wireless charging so if she felt like leaving it on it wouldn't be an issue.

Long story short. Your wife can easily remove the wallet from the back while charging and then put it back on when it's done. If she can't handle that, you have bigger problems and I would look into getting her some help.

Huh? A hammer will take care of that easy peasy. Good chance someone will figure out a way for a machine to break them open and sort out the battery from the rest or just have people smacking them with hammers or mallets.

And that is surprising to you? No phones will charge with the magnetic accessories attached to the back and I doubt that will ever change.

Those accessories are designed/meant to be swapped out and taken off when not in use. I have a couple of mag wallets for my phone and they most definitely don't live on the phone. I swap them out when I don't want to take my regular wallet with me.

You can still break down the vape and take the battery out of it to be recycled. Problem is that people just trash them instead of tossing it with electronics recycling (if that's even considered cool). Maybe as we see battery recycling we will see people scrounging for these to turn in same as aluminum and glass bottles/cans.

It's a tale as old as time.
