I like their games but its such a weird company. like... people had been asking for bluetooth for wireless headphones on switch for years and it had just never been a feature. then one day... they like, just turned it on and said hey you can use wireless headphones now! like, that took 4 years! absolutely bizarre.

    Sony can't even include basic features in new console releases. Like themes, music players, or folders. Multiple consoles in a row now.

    because sony and nintendo realised having ability to have user loaded content is a vector of security vulnerbilities, so they decided the best choice to fight of exploits is not give you the feature instead of having a competent cyber security team.

    for instance, neither sony nor nintendo give you an internet browser thats not hidden. Microsoft does.

    the followup question is which company has the most experience developing an OS.

    Sony and Nintendo care more about preventing piracy than it does giving its userbase good features.

    The Switch came out right around when people were bitching about phones getting rid of headphone jacks, which the Switch does have. I really don't see the problem with including a headphone jack from the start, focusing on releasing a stable system first, and adding Bluetooth headphone support later.

    Adding Bluetooth audio support is not as simple as slapping a bluetooth radio in your system, especially when you have a custom operating system like the Switch's

    That's a lot of "like"s as filler words for something written out, haha

    Is "like" used that way? I didn't know that. If so, what area are you from? I'm into linguistics and am genuinely curious.

    US west coast for sure. It’s older and less common now, I’d prob place the poster around 40.

    I agree w/ the location guess, but I'd personally estimate a slightly lower age, around 35. Which is pretty much the same

    Millennial for sure. Using ‘like’ that way was a v 90’s thing.
