I actually didn't know that was changeable, one of my most hated "features" of my phone that it wants to bring up an AI assistant I'll never use and didn't ask for when doing something that has brought up the power menu on every phone I've ever owned
If by "regular power button menu" you mean holding the power button for a couple seconds, that was changed at least on pixel devices to bring up some bullshit called "Gemini", some AI from googie that I never got a chance to say no to. Power + volume up is now how we get to the power menu, because of course they would change the function everyone uses occasionally to a more obscure combination without notice
I've long said that Kaiser is great, but should not be: the service they provide should be the baseline everyone gets, not exceptional by comparison.
Everyone deserves what they provide, or better. But it's nearly impossible to find anything in the US that's even as good as them without paying unholy amounts of money
For me, the Boost Lemmy app let me downvote even though my instance has it disabled... It just quietly failed and when I go back the downvote isn't there.
The Jerboa and Voyager apps, on the other hand, don't: Voyager let's you try but correctly shows an error, while Jerboa flat out doesn't offer it since I can't anyway
You are aware that most of us in the US don't actually have options like that, correct? I'd dump my ISP in a heartbeat if those plans were available to me.
Can confirm, when I was doing that forever and a half ago, Comcast actually never gave us trouble when we called them, but anything having to do with at&t or Verizon was like pulling teeth
The worst was one site who was serviced by neither of them, but our last mile provider interlinked through one of them, who linked through the other (I don't remember the order of interlinks) to get to our actual ISP and into our datacenter/WAN. We had issues upon issues upon issues with that site's connection, and it was the interlink between those two that was the culprit. It was easy to narrow down, and easy to fix, but getting them to actually fix it took months of us screaming at our last mile to scream at them louder since we weren't their customers and they both refused to talk to us because of that.
It did get fixed but it took probably a year and a half of fighting before they finally updated the interlink.
I don't know how I would react to being told that other than staring at them incredulously and fighting my instinct to say something along the lines of "you're complaining that I'm doing my job TOO WELL???!?"
I will say the solution to that IS to not play those games, but that only starts to work when enough people do that to hurt the bottom line of the devs
No.
