  • Huffman said 97% of Reddit users do not use any third-party apps to browse the site.

    “And the opportunity cost of not having those users on our platform, on our advertising platform, is really significant,”

    By “significant”, he means 3%??? That is not factoring how much profit these 3% of people’s content can provide.

    So all of these fuzz just to have a one time increase of less than 3% of the profit, even at the cost of more than a million (57 million * 3%) user’s privacy, that is freaking ridiculous.






  • I think colored eink is a great idea, unfortunately I will never buy a boox device at this point. Their business model is similar to phone model, pushing out new model is much more important than maintaining old model.

    IMO this practice is very wasteful, extremely bad for the environment (electronics are in general very toxic), and ultimately just anti consumer.

    That being said, different people have different needs, and have to face different trade-offs. Absolutely no judgement if anyone decided to get one. I am just saying personally I would much prefer the supernote’s business model than boox.







  • I think e os is running on very outdated Android version. So it might be because older version do not handle transparent icon well.

    Also e/os has some modification on icon. It is possible they set the background to the boarder color of the icon, hence hiding the tail.

    I would suggest to try a different launcher/icon pack see if the issue persist.
