Google kills two-year “Pixel Pass” subscription after just 22 months::Two years on a Pixel Pass was supposed to get you a new phone.
Say what you want about apple, but this is why they are winning. They don’t jump the gun, they don’t go home early, they stick with it consistently.
They are no more expensive than Samsung. So, other than the walled garden app ecosystem keeping all the malware out, whattcha got?
I haven’t seen an ad on any of my devices in like 4+ years, nor have I paid for any monthly subscriptions.
Say what you’d like about Google and Android, I’m not exactly singing their praises or anything, but I don’t think that’s possible with Apple.
It is. NextDNS and Brave Browser. I usually am not a fan of Brave but it’s the best browser on iOS
Would you mind sending a link about NextDNS configuration?

All iOS browsers are actually safari under the hood, until the EU forces them to stop being huge pieces of monopolistoc shit. And brave is run by a shady POS company, maybe worse than apple, which is saying a lot
I know but Brave has an built in adblocker and many more features which are pretty useful. Also Brave isn’t as shady as everyone makes it sound.
A big tech company is using your data for profit. That’s as shady as it gets
Source? As far as I know they collect less data by default than Mozilla does. And that whole Brave rewards thing is opt-in

As an apple user it is definitely possible. I don’t even have a million work-arounds. They’re pretty direct
that’s about it.
buys a Samsung
Nothing says “keeping all the malware out” more, than constantly having to remove malware ;-)

Apple has messed around a lot with its phone payment plans in recent years, though. It’s not clear whether they really want to become a bank or not.
