I've never even seen this thing? All the Chromecast I've seen over the last 4-5 years have been in-built modules in Android TVs.

Pretty happy with Brave, but I'm guessing that being a downstream chromium fork they'll eventually be stuffed and forced into using V3?

That's where your wellness goes to die I believe

The performance has been pretty shocking at launch even with the latest patch. What's even more shocking has been the super bad takes from the steam forum commentators such as:

  • skylines 1 also launched poorly, it's fine
  • at 100k sims in skylines 1 you only used to get 30 FPS max so why are you complaining
  • just drop your settings to low for everything it's fine (and also it looks like shit)
  • I've had no issues on MY computer, it's perfectly smooth (it's running at 15-25FPS)
  • get better hardware (it runs poorly at 100k with a 13900k + 4090, upgrade to what, a supercomputer?)

I get that people invested want to bootlick their favorite company, but pushing out games that are clearly not finished isn't great

Much less beholden to arbitrary rules also. Way too many times companies will just up and lift their API access or push through restrictions. No ty, I'll just access it myself then

Back when you could actually have funny ads and not worry about people whinging about it online

Always wondered how deeply these types of de-bloating systems affect the OS overall. I'd be keen to give it a go but phone stability is pretty paramount.
