Anyone know of an Android compatible alternative that isn't Tile? Every Tile device we've had has broken within 3 months. Normally literally falling to pieces. Have been through 10 of them. Would be fine if they were cheap, but th

OpenRent[1] founder here. I was the only technical person at our company until we hit 1m users (certainly only person who could restart/switch servers). I guess the question is, what happens if the server goes down whilst you're a

For UK users: I'm surprised the BBC are hijacking the back button here when redirecting from .com -> .co.uk. I thought that behaviour was reserved for more, well, scummy websites. This appears to be the offending client-side code:

This title is a bit misleading. Progressive Web Apps are supported on Firefox mobile, on android at least. The real issue people should be discussing is Apple not supporting PWAs, or in fact, any browser engine other than Safari on iPhones.

Thanks for the link - but that is quite a lot smaller at 10 inches vs. 32 inches so the price comparison isn't quite like for like.
