Phone models sold in China (even iphones) have had dual sim capabilities for a long time before eSims were a thing. I mean like 2 physical sim card slots in a phone. Adoption of eSims isn’t much of a necessity when the phone itself already can carry 2 sims by default.
On the other hand American phone models only ever had the one sim card slot. It’s a bit strange that eSims haven’t been as widely adopted.
IIRC in mastodon if the other instance deletes itself, all links to it in other instances will also get nuked. Is that also the case for lemmy?
Damm I was just 2h off from the announcement post! Voyager dev’s insane
Now just gotta wait for it to show up in testflight ᕕ(ᐛ)ᕗ thanks for letting me know!
Didn’t you need to pay a sub to access Stadia & purchase the game on top of that? Or was that just for a more premium tier of Stadia.
Like buying expansions to WoW, pay for the expansions & pay the sub to play the game.
The cyberpunk fiasco was a perfect time to have pushed it, too bad they didn’t try to ride the waves of being the best place to play one of the most anticipated games of the decade (I know it was a disastrous launch, but the hype leading up to it for years was on a whole other dimension).
It appears to be so - I personally don’t have an iPad to check. Strange decision to omit it in that particular mode given it’s a parallel to iPhone keyboards, so I’d have to assume it was a deliberate omission. User experience (too many grandparents triggering it by accident)? Who knows.
Now we know we have to pinch it to make it float and then slide that way. TIL!
But if you’re using a newer iPhone, definitely able to slide as long as the owner haven’t turned it off.
Unfortunately no easy way about it :(
You can sorta increase keyboard size by going into accessibility settings > display to increase text size as a whole.
As for additional number line on iPhones, not possible without third party keyboard afaik, but there’s a couple tricks (link to reddit comment) to speed up typing numbers. iPad has the number line in their keyboard.
I’m just used to not having these features in exchange for generally much better integration of autofill passwords etc. I have an android tablet to compare with & it’s a pain to have to switch over to a dedicated keyboard to access my passwords & back because swiftkey borks it most of the time (I use keepass as a password manager). The keyboard also auto-detects those pesky SMS OTPs, which is a small convenience but surprisingly satisfying to not have to flip apps/squint at the number in my notifs to slowly input it. Pros & cons I guess.
Slide to type had been available since ios 13 for years now. What other platforms are you referring to besides iphones & ipads which both use ios?
3rd party keyboards exist for iOS - I used to use them too. Keyboards can access every app that you use a keyboard in, so basically everything from your passwords to credit card can be logged. There’d be a popup warning about it on installation that everyone ignores.
But the native keyboard does adopt parts of other good apps + lack of substantial development in said apps (looking at you, Swiftkey iOS). Once the native keyboard added slide to type + spacebar navigation years back, third party keyboards lost their lustre for me lol.
Technically Apple could log all our keypresses too. It’s just a matter of whether that sort of data is worth it for them to collect, or are they prioritising security with their current focuses on privacy features in newer updates.
My guess is that it might either be more accurate in predictions or some additional convenience factors that makes typing this logographic language much easier and faster lol.
Or people are also simply used to it since it’s everywhere.
Probably through that weird crypto thing lol, they still have ad revenue with their rewards system.
