I've been to most parts of Turkey and I can say the Internet infra in smaller cities are actually better than the bigger ones. Especially the cellular/LTE network (I use Turkcell). You rarely have dead zones between cities and mos

I seriously owe most of my life to the community FriendFeed gathered. If anyone from that team is reading this, thank you. It was an amazing social network in every way. It had great UX and minimal UI, it was fast, had power features but wa

Not OP but I also have a timer for certain social media apps, including Facebook. For me, the timer is just there to remind me X minutes have passed. Losing track of time while doing something, anything feels natural to me. It happens in re

It's admittedly off topic but if you don't mind me asking, what are the reasons for you to change your number every 1-2 years? Doesn't that complicate things with past clients, old friends and maybe even with family? I change

I don't know how it works in your country but in Turkey you can return the Windows license and get your computer with FreeDOS so you don't have to use or pay for Windows.

I don't understand the relation/reference. I'm Turkish and have been watching the news but I don't see any reason why someone correlates large websites being down with Turkey. With no explanation too. Can you elaborate p

The way I see it, it's not worth the risk of Facebook forking it and essentially getting control of the community of developers who are using Atom. A better way to do it IMHO, as other people in the thread mentioned, is just integratin

On my iPhone 8 Plus, it's under a second and honestly, not that bad. If it's open in the background it's nearly instant to switch to it, unlike some other apps.

The camera and the sensors can be available but I'm certain the auth mechanism itself won't be accessible. AFAIK they have a dedicated chip for this like Touch ID and what software can is limited.
