Comment on New mobile features are sh*t these days
AndyMFK@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 weeks agoThe phones with those features have been discontinued but they were never unpopular, they were just what phones were.
Nobody 10 years ago was saying “I wish I couldn’t replace my phone battery” or “I hate that I have the option to plug my wired IEMs into my phone”
People just do what people are good at. Adapting.
Manufacturers have taken these options away because it is profitable to do so. People have largely adapted to that (although I still refuse to buy a phone without a headphone jack)

Yes, and the reason it was profitable to do so was that people don’t care about them.
If they did care, the companies that removed them would have gone out of business.
So, again, most people - of which we are not - do not care about these features.
Sorry to burst your bubble.
