We talk a lot about enshittification of technology, so tell me about technology that is getting better!
I personally love the progress of electric scooters. I’ve been zooming around on a 400$ escooter for a year and it works so well. It has a range of around 20 miles and top speed of 15 mph, so it works just super well for my uses, and 10 years ago scooters with that range/speed/price were no where near a thing.
I’m going to keep an open mind, but I haven’t seen much positive about Sony & Motorola smartphones. Haven’t even looked at them for probably 10 years.
A big thing that kept me away from them, aside from their reputation for lackluster/poor performance, was the lack of root/ROMs.
But I’ve gotten older. Specific root benefits have become much fewer, punishments for rooting are more common, well maintained custom ROMs just aren’t a thing (and for what phone?). So all of the rules have changed on me…and maybe it’s time to take another look at Sony, Motorola. 🙂 Do you have any specific recommendations?
I want USB-C, I mean they all should be. I want microSD expandable storage. I’d sure like an aux port but I can go without.
