Unpopular Opinion
Welcome to the Unpopular Opinion community!
How voting works:
Vote the opposite of the norm.
If you agree that the opinion is unpopular give it an arrow up. If it's something that's widely accepted, give it an arrow down.
Guidelines:
Tag your post, if possible (not required)
- If your post is a "General" unpopular opinion, start the subject with [GENERAL].
- If it is a Lemmy-specific unpopular opinion, start it with [LEMMY].
Rules:
1. NO POLITICS
Politics is everywhere. Let's make this about [general] and [lemmy] - specific topics, and keep politics out of it.
2. Be civil.
Disagreements happen, but that doesn’t provide the right to personally attack others. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Please also refrain from gatekeeping others' opinions.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Shitposts and memes are allowed but...
Only until they prove to be a problem. They can and will be removed at moderator discretion.
5. No trolling.
This shouldn't need an explanation. If your post or comment is made just to get a rise with no real value, it will be removed. You do this too often, you will get a vacation to touch grass, away from this community for 1 or more days. Repeat offenses will result in a perma-ban.
Instance-wide rules always apply. https://legal.lemmy.world/tos/
I like my Framework 16's solution: 6 hot-swappable expansion ports. Only want one USB-C? Get one and 3d print fillers for the other 5 slots or use the expandable memory because why not (other than $). Want an SD or MicroSD? You can get that too, along with 3.5mm, hdmi, USB-A, ethernet, or display ports. Everyone can configure it exactly how they want.
I had a preorder for a 16 but because life I had to cancel it and go with something else. I'm still rooting for them so hard. Glad to see folks out there using them and liking them enough to talk about their experiences.
I love it! I understand how it goes with the life stuff, I'm just lucky that it worked out really. Definitely keep an eye on them in the future, you can get refurbed and factory seconds of 13s now from https://frame.work/marketplace, so by the next time you're hunting that may be a decent option for less money! Still pretty expensive, but at least they're less!
