It’s crazy how the authour keeps shutting on the phone, being like “wow we’ve learned so much since then”, but physical keyboards were the fucking best.
Touchscreen keyboards are super error prone and you need to physically look at it as you type. It used to be the case that you could write and send messages without needing to look at your phone at all. Under your desk while you kept eye contact and a verbal discussion with your teacher and they wouldn’t even know.
i was running the last keyed blackberry until android 9 became incompatible with some necessary apps.
I had practically no errors in my writing. Now on the touchscreeb i keep making constant mistakes even after half a year of being back on a touchscreen.
Fuck, a quarter of the time i have to repeat typing in my unlock code because it didnt recognize the jeystrokes properly.
My first Android phone was a Samsung Galaxy S, and the main reason I picked it back then was that some apps, mainly Anki, were free on Android but you had to pay for them on iOS (even when both are from the same open-source project), and I thought it would be cool to be able to go through my flashcards during my commutes. Oh and you could remove the back cover and easily replace the battery on that one.
Yeah that was my first too. I remember that I found the S2 ridiculously large when it came out. Also I was super jelous for the build quality of the iPhone 4 which was released at the same time. Glad that these times are over.
I, for one, will keep waiting for Android 18.
I was in preschool when Android came out, crazy how far times gone.
Stop making me feel old, godamnit.
