You still can't use a non webkit browser though. It's Internet Explorer levels of non-competition.
I would love to be able to say to my users, when they experience an issue with Safari - "you can try a different browser". But I can't because the same issue will be present in Chrome.
But that's what you a developer want, not necessarily the users. I'm extremely happy that you can't tell me to use another browser and have to fix your code for Safari instead. I think that you have a right to decide which browser I can use, even if I'm your costumer. I knew the rules when I bought my iPhone and had to accept them, even if it means only using webkit. Being forced to switch to Chrome when using a specific website just because the developer didn't feel like making it work in Safari is very annoying on the Mac and would make me go nut on the phone.
It's not "fix my code" when Safari doesn't even support the feature or it's simply broken - or most annoyingly, it works one day and breaks with an update. (See: webrtc stuff)
You might have known the rules, but most users don't. Plenty will come to me saying they've tried both Safari and Chrome and that it won't work in either, indicating they have no knowledge of webkit.
Android also randomly breaks things now and then, but I can at least direct users to Firefox, which never seems to have any problems.
Please understand redirecting users to another browser is only ever a last resort. If I can fix the code I will, but sometimes something just stops working and I can't even reproduce it.
...and I have a teacher who is relying on my app for their classes this week and "try firefox" could save them...
I use it as my primary spending debit card. I travel a lot, use it in random ATMs and I keep it topped up just enough that I wouldn't be devastated if the account contents were stolen. Also use the money transfer side monthly to pay rent in a foreign country.
Not true. I and others I know use a TV only as a screen for videogames and do not watch TV in any form. You explicitly do not need a license just to own a TV.
Interesting, in Croatia it's specifically a fee on owning any type of radio or tv receiver. Nowadays that applies to almost anything, from TVs and car radios to PCs and smartphones.
In Italy it doesn't apply to PCs and smartphones. It does apply to DVB-T dongles though.
It used to be a separate tax, now it's collected as part of the electric bill. You have to opt out explicitly instead of "opting in" by paying; this makes it much worse for people to evade the payment, since they would be making a false statement when opting out. So many people were evading the fee, that it has since been reduced by a third or so.
I've got no TV service here in the US, but a couple large TVs. I watch movies on other media occasionally, but for the most part they're used for video games.
Buying an 80" monitor isn't really cost efficient.
I got a few animal abuse videos in an hour or so of swiping. It shows you these random videos in case you are interested.
A few of these was enough to uninstall.
I tried again some months later, and after awhile the recommendations get a little better, but there is still the occasional piece of awful content that gets thrown in there.
In all cases I swiped past as quickly as possible.
As someone with similar project growth, I've played around with things like Adwords and generally failed or had a negative experience, wasting money with no results. Marketing seems... hard, and I don't really gave the funds to hire a professional.
My main project is ad supported, rather than subscription, so that might make it harder.
Well, they are very different devices. The Quest is currently a one of a kind device when it comes to ease of use and setup.
(Which makes it doubly annoying to me the Facebbok tie in. I adored the Quest one but I sent it back for a refund due to Facebook's ridiculous decision not to allow multiple user accounts. A device which I'm not using 95% of my time cannot easily be shared with other family members?! Utter madness. /rant)
