I agree. I ordered mine the day preorders went live. Waited all the time for it to arrive and was underwhelmed as well. No info on when the cool interface will be available. I asked to split my SuperDock order, assuming it wouldn't take much longer, and I STILL don't have it. I think my SS1 arrived in February.

Also, my SD card got randomly corrupted somehow and the SS1 just wouldn't boot. I grabbed a different SD card and flashed it. The instructions for this are not great - documentation is poor in general. They're probably focusing on mass production instead of software dev, but the lack of regular (and meaningful) updates makes this purchase hard to recommend. Hopefully they keep working on it and it gets better.

Edit: Also, they need to pick a platform. I only use Lemmy but for some reason I need to check YouTube, Twitter, Reddit, and Discord to maybe find a post about what's going on. Then there are also the email newsletter and shipping dashboard on their website.

    I don't think they would have had the reception they did if they didn't release it for older gen hardware.

    You're probably right. I'm sure that factored in. Who knows how much dev time went to old console hardware that was never going to run the game well.

    I had a similar experience playing on PC with what was a nearly brand new PC build. I ran into a few bugs but nothing broke the game. It was a lot of fun.

    I think many people took issue with the launch features CDPR promised that weren't delivered until much later. I haven't kept track but maybe some weren't delivered at all.

    I recently switched to BasicSync as well. I had Syncthing-Fork from the F-Droid. Then I switched to the Play Store version. For whatever reason, it wouldn't keep connection to my server. BasicSync is always able to reconnect and I was easily able to reuse my previous Syncthing-Fork config.

    I finally moved to Octopi Launcher a few days ago. I used Nova Prime for so many years. But the AI stuff - I'm done. I tried Octopi before but it didn't work out since some settings didn't translate well. This time I was able to replicate most of my settings I enjoyed from Nova. I appreciate there being a viable alternative launcher for my needs now, so I also bought Pro to support them. 👍

    Not surprising considering Google strong armed their own app as the only option for RCS. I didn't love Samsung Messages, but I hate Google Messages so much. All the dumb shit they add, like the banana remix button on photos, an emoji focused mode for photos, and recently adding @ mentioning. This isn't Teams. I don't want this shit in my text messages. I just want read receipts. That's it. Sorry, rant over.
