I don’t understand how could you pay such a vast amount of money for a phone that is not even subpar… it is unusable by your own testimony. Not trying to be snarky or anything, but why didn’t you return it?
It sounds like something fancy but it’s common where I live. It’s usually hot all year round so it made sense to buy an air conditioner with a heat pump built in. Although it’s been a few years since we last turned it in because it’s never cold enough to justify the electricity usage given the always high prices here in Europe. So perhaps it doesn’t even work anymore :P
It hasn’t received updates, not even security updates, for years. It’s unacceptable for me to use a phone that doesn’t have security updates. On the other hand the other day Apple released a security update for the iPhone 5s, released in 2013.
If everybody accesses Instagram from bibliogram, bypassing ads and data collection techniques, who’s going to pay for the service? I know that your answer will be “so close it”, but that’s hardly what the users of the platform want.
