They're always fretting over trivial things that would be nice to have but far from dealbreakers for the average person and then ignore or barely mention the stuff a regular user would need permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] Lord_Logjam@feddit.uk 7 points 2 years ago People talking about phones on Lemmy don't represent the average user though. Most people just don't care about headphone jacks, SD cards, etc. These complaints are made nearly exclusively by enthusiasts who don't make up enough of the potential sales to be pandered to. I'm not saying it's wrong to complain btw. permalink fedilink source parent [–] lotanis@discuss.tchncs.de 10 points 2 years ago It absolutely discusses phone size - in some detail both in the intro and as part of the reviews. permalink fedilink source parent [–] noddy@beehaw.org 6 points 2 years ago Yeah.
