Sharing photos was the point of the app 6 years ago. Now the point is to either meticulously modify yout online image to look like the coolest person on the world - or just spampost memes/porn/disinformation to get followers and brand deals

I genuinely didn’t know this, holy fuck lol

Tecno phones suck ass, I used to have one in nigeria

I sell my oranges for $15

Nobody buys them

I sell my oranges for $5

People buy them

Earlier this year, Microsoft introduced a so-called “Account Manager” for Windows 11 that appears on the screen when you click your profile picture on the Start menu. Instead of just showing you buttons for logging out, locking your device or switching profiles, it displays Microsoft 365 ads. All the actually useful buttons are now hidden behind a three-dot submenu.

How the fuck are people OK with this?!

This looks like shit, is used for something else already, we already have an icon for the fediverse and this has 0 reason to exist

This is e-waste

Jesus christ i didnt think it was THIS bad. Google really needs that ad revenue lol

Your instance is defederated from them

IMAP only works with paid accounts

The only reason I even have a microsoft account is to play Minecraft. Other than that, most of their services have perfectly good alternatives that are a lot better IMO

I’m probably the only person in my entire school who knows what lemmy is lol

Gen-z here - I know how to torrent lol. It’s insane how tech illiterate a lot of my friends are, even in my IT classes don’t know what HTTPS is or what an ethernet cable is so… yeah

Feels weird being known as “the guy who’s an expert at computers” despite being a noob

Why are you using Lemmy then? Go back to reddit if you aren’t scared of them

Best thing I can come up with is use a third party camera app, like Simple Camera. Since Google decided to hard-code this into the app, this is your only option aside from using really inconvenient solutions

They shouldn’t rely on ads to make money back on a phone IMHO.
