Samsung's email app is crap and additional to the google app, while gmail feels like a useful default email app. It's a super fine line that is basically just preference, and they are both bloatware in a technical sense (can'

Snap seems to be pretty usa centered, which explains a lot. On memes, I think for me and most of my friends something like 90% of facebook use is meme pages. I think people that use facebook as a meme platform will move to different platfor

My understanding is that there are partner venders who have old toolchains set up only for C++03 and thus would have to upgrade their toolchains to build our API if we upgraded.

It's unfortunate when your codebase is C++03 only and intends to remain that way for compatabillity with other vendors. Yay for consumer electronics!
