    This doesn’t beat foss, but if you’re willing to meet halfway, you can do Spotify for cheap. It’s about $15 a year by taking advantage of their regional pricing in India. Method is to go on Amazon.in and buy a years GC to Spotify, then log into Spotify via VPN in India, then apply the GC.






  • This is my assumption, the demand for people that want a 7" phone does not justify the cost of development and manufacturing. Yes, there will be people that would want it, but just like the iPhone Mini, the demand wasn’t justified to continue producing the smaller phone.

    Generally 6" to 6.5" seems to be the sweet spot that is large enough to use, and small enough that it fits in my pocket comfortably.






  • Well, RCS was originally more fragmented before Google. Each carrier wanted to handle RCS messaging differently. T-Mobile made their own, but it only worked with other T-Mobile users.

    Google was tired of waiting for all the carriers to agree and come up with their universal cross-carrier RCS platform, so they decided to come up with something that works with Google Messages, which is generally accepted as the RCS standard now.
