- jhloa2 6y agoBut why? You'd have no 3rd party apps, gps, cell service, and Safari wouldn't work. To make it usable, Apple would have to put in a lot of effort.
- forgotmypw17 6y agoSafari would work with my own site, and probably with Google Search.

- forgotmypw17 6y agoI think HTTPS is overrated for most applications. It has many drawbacks, too.

- alexlarsson 6y agoFrom experience it’s typically used to mean ”Something I dislike”
- 1-more 6y agohaha you got exactly what I was driving at. Wehn you're driving anyone passing you is a reckless maniac, and anyone slower than you is an idiot. When you're programming any convenience a language/standard library has more than your favorite is just Fisher Price childish handholding, and any missing feature is senseless busywork that should be built into the library. And when it comes to OSes the word of choice is Bloated it would seem.
- IronRanger 6y agoThis is presumably part of the reason the iPhone 6S is not going to receive iOS 14 next year - since it was sold with 16GB as the lowest capacity. The next model along, the iPhone 7, had 32GB as the lowest capacity.
