How does this compare to merlin? I dont currently have any reason to distrust the cornell university department of ornithology… but if they ever turn evil its good to know there’s a backup

Vandals_handle@lemmy.world 12 hours ago I’m afraid Merlin’s addition of videos of automatically running when birds are detected is the beginning of enshitification. Phone charge no longer lasts a full field day with this additional drain on battery. Bird of the day, x number of people listening, I don’t need of want any of this shit. Also dislike can no longer immediately cancel recording without saving, have to wait while application buffers or something before can exit without saving, for a long recording this can take more than 15 seconds. Pity, app is generally very helpful.
