Comment on Netflix Windows app is set to remove its downloads feature, while introducing ads
morriscox@lemmy.world 5 months agoThe longer a business is around the more people that get replaced and the new people are going to be different and which leads to a change in culture and objectives. So basically the name is the same but everything else is different, including what the company produces (since products seldom don’t change).
If the company goes public then there’s definitely going to be a complete change since shareholders will demand as much profit as they can get, no matter how or what the consequences can be. They may complain about Prime Video showing ads when they pause a movie yet demand that Amazon give them a stronger return on their investment.
That’s a bit long-winded. I have a Samsung Galaxy phone (and watch) and have been tempted to see about using a custom ROM (I jailbroke most of my phones) but it’s my daily driver and I’m leery of messing up.

True dat.
I also have a Samsung Galaxy, a S22, and kinda regret it. Somehow it’s always hot, like just having the screen on is enough to make it hot, and it literally hurts my fingers after a few minutes. Maybe it’s my fault somehow, but I definitely researched a lot before buying and all the text and video reviewers swore that the cooling was adequate. I’m so done with big expensive phones.:-( One day I may buy a cheapie and when I have an adequate daily driver play around to see what a custom ROM could do to improve the experience. Basically I miss my Nexus is what I guess I am saying:-).

Have you tried Samsung Thermal Guardian?

No - I never created a Samsung account, so I am much to blame for my phone’s lack of performance, though at the same time I also blame it for not creating that right from out of the box, for such an expensive device:-).

I agree. Whether they claim that it’s to reduce bloat or to get people to create a Samsung account, they really should have included apps.samsung.com/appquery/appDetail.as?appId=com.… as core functionality. You should also look at apps.samsung.com/appquery/appDetail.as?appId=com.…
