I'm being a tiny bit picky here, but I don't like the look of the new volume bar on

It is kind of chunky!

One advantage of switching away from iOS to for my personal phone is that it integrates so nicely with , which is what I’ve been using as my main personal laptop for the last few years. The ecosystem is actually pretty nice. FWIW, main desktop is

I think there's another reason for BBC keeping a Mastodon presence while leaving Threads. It's the institutional aspect.

Setting up its own instance is a serious project to build BBC infrastructure. This means BBC on Mastodon is backed by a team and dedicated funding.

I think 2024/2025 could be the years that VR gaming becomes mainstream, especially if the rumored Lite is released. If it is indeed as affordable as expected ($200) it could be the VR headset that the masses buy simply to try out VR. If the price point is indeed so low it could be a device that families but several times over too in order to play together. I don't know what is planning, but there's a small chance that it is VR related and this could have an impact too.

What do you think? By 2025 we'll be doing more more in ?
