Stuff like this always reminds me of the personalized ads in Mass Effect (like here: https://youtu.be/hMdIypwM2KI ). That game has accurately depicted the future.

I have an ancient Samsung. Its going to die soon. I don't think I can get a pixel here. What are my options, coz I also hate apple?

[–] Alphane_Moon@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago

Just get a mid-range Samsung device and remove the relevant apps and get a custom launcher.

Or get a Fairphone if you can afford it.

Don't they know how ugly the common people are. I'm not gonna buy something with an ugly guy in the ad. We ain't all plastic surgery Korean like Samsung home base.

Haven't Samsungs always been trash though? From a software perspective, I mean?

I've never owned one, but I've tried to troubleshoot a few for relatives, and always found their version of Android to be just cunty.

Never heard of glance. It's an ai shopping tool? I couldn't make sense of it, but I didn't spend much time either.
