There's nothing wrong with killing off the headphone jack. The benefits are worth it.

>Smaller bezel
>Better water proofing
>less autism to deal with phone cases & aux cord compatibility
>More room for a bigger battery
>Force audio industry to improve Bluetooth headphones

This is where the mobile industry is healing like it or not, and it's the next step of innovating phones and accessories.

Yes but it's still not perfect. With one less port the water proofing would improve simply because there's is space for water to get into.

what exactly is wrong with gnome's approach? Modularity seems like a good idea, means if not everyone likes the current implementation (TopIcons), people can reimplement it however they wish without breaking everything else.

If they were going to remove it they should have their alternative to status icons.

Instead they chose to get rid of responsibilities and make (FORCE) users to use unofficial, 3rd party extensions that
- is not necessarily compatible with all GNOME versions
- slows down shell performance by a large degree

How does /g/ watch anime?

I have a samba share network drive on my home server that I connect to with VLC on my fire stick and it works really well, i didn't even have to root or sideload anything.
It's also 100x better than "HTPC" garbage like kodi or plex which invasively start caching cover art and movie posters and ask where your "media" folders are and end up doing sneaky shit over the network when I just want to watch video stored in folders.

Can someone tell me why I should use this over vlc or parole?
I've switched to barebones debian with i3 and am now manually selecting all my applications for a comfy experience instead of just using whatever the distro came with like before.

I remember some 40 year old chink who owned an auto shop show me his "awesome" new phone in 2008 or 2009, where it was some no name brand smartphone where he could click the entire screen, because tapping was too difficult for him.

I thought it was the gayest shit then. Glad it didn't catch on.
