Please Apple, free us from dopamine hell with cross-app Siri automations
- topham 19d agoCan't take it seriously and read the article. You have a statement to make and the your choice is making it's own statement about usability that is, frankly, off putting.
- reimertz 19d agoThanks for this comment, I needed it! I should've removed the "artsy" stuff for the blog posts when introduced them. Now fixed!
- topham 19d agoThanks for listening. I named my social media folder anti-social for a reason. Social media apps will always build to dark patterns; they are driven on engagement.
- benoau 19d agoI don't think they'll be taking a stance any time soon, the top grossing apps on iPhone include YouTube, TikTok, Snapchat, Instagram, LinkedIn, Facebook and Threads so this is probably worth billions/year in fees that are disproportionately profit too. And that's ignoring the games! The only chance maybe is if courts and regulators lock in zero-commission or a very small fee that eliminates Apple's incentive to allow and tax this stuff.
- bigyabai 19d ago> We deserve to get our time back > I would be pretty proud if I could fight for my users' time. It's the most beautiful thing we get as humans. You don't need Apple to fight for any of these things.
- reimertz 19d agoFair point, but it would definitely make it easier for a lot of people, me included. I went completely off grid for many years from Instagram, Facebook, etc. but in the end, I just felt isolated from friends and family and installed it again.
