From my experience it's inconsistent and that's incredibly frustrating. Overall the whole mobile interface needs to be overhauled imo. These guys need to simply copy Safari and call it a day. I still have never used a mobile browser that's as thoughtfully designed as Safari, and I've used basically all the major ones.

From my experience it's inconsistent and incredibly frustrating, but that's my experience with Firefox mobile overall.

You can use an adapter for a micro SD but you can’t shrink the size of a normal SD card, is my only guess.

You can delete almost all apps on iOS except the obviously core apps that are necessary for it to function.

Thanks to the EU! They really fixed a lot of things about the iPhone, a shame not every fix went everywhere like core app removals did though.

You can now. You couldn't do this in the early versions of iOS.

On early versions of Android, you had to give an application every permission it wanted, or you couldn't install it at all.

You can. I’ve removed Apple Music and Apple Maps (seriously, who uses that?) but apple makes extra sure most things are more annoying to use without maps. Calendar app with an address? Default to opening in Apple Maps which is missing so error message (twice). Find my? Also open in apple maps with missing app error message. Even with Google Maps set as default systemwide.

Yup. Even though it requires an explicit user action to make Chrome your default browser, don't worry, next time you click on a link, Apple will pop up a dialog saying that your default has changed, and your options are "Use Safari", or "Keep using Chrome", and guess what the default option is?

> even iPhones came (and still comes) with a ton of apps you cannot remove regardless of how little you use them

You see, the user you replied to spoke in the present tense, and is addressing the “(and still comes with)” portion of the original comment.

And they added this ability a DECADE ago.

Some people want so badly for the iPhone to be bad and only bought by sheep as a fashion accessory to signal to their wealth to their peers.

I wish that was the same for MacOS as well. I don't need the TV app...

Do you have some example searches that you made? I’m not a heavy search user and not a programmer but I’ve still found the experience on par or better for all of my general searching.

I tried with the search I had open which was "cf d1" and I was looking for info on cloudflare d1, Google surfaced it #1 and Kagi it was way at the bottom

For the record this is on Google https://imgur.com/a/De1AVpt definetely not #1

Kagi allows personalization, the difference is you as a user control it. If you used kagi for decade (assuming this is what you used Google for) I am sure the results would be fine tuned to your preference too.

I fresh install to give myself a different perspective when I feel like I have too many 3rd party solutions to problems that no longer exist. Spotlight is better and I only casually use my macbook nowadays, so I don't need the power of Alfred. I don't need dock extensions because Stage Manager is mediocre but works well enough for the browser, chat / music apps, and whatever document I'm working with at the time.

Lol this is the same thing that's been repeated about DDG for over a decade. I had the same exact complaints and eventually switched back to Google since I was using !g bangs so often, and that was when I was in high school. Which is why, when I learned about Kagi I switched and never looked back. Even as a "casual" user I still find value because of the lack of obnoxious ads and control I have over boosting or blocking sites from my results completely.

Yeah, was going to ask - I had the same experience with DDG, but with Kagi, I’ve never once been tempted to switch back, even though I have to pay for Kagi.

There's always a compromise for me when adjusting scaling. UI doesn't scale correctly, bars get too big when I only want the text specifically to be increased, etc. I've settled on adjusting the text manually because at least that's user-adjustable.

I’m fine with BlueCruise but my free sub is up next year and that’s when I’ll look into comma hardware.

It's a webkit browser.
