I was sure it would stay on 14.1.x or 14.2.x forever, because it wanted me to delete all my apps and data in order to update to 14.x. I guess 14.4.2 is smaller than prior updates. -
Free Software Foundation (fsf)'s status on Wednesday, 27-Jan-2021 21:00:12 UTC Free Software Foundation We're told today marks the 11th anniversary of the @apple #iPad. By complete coincidence, we're close to celebrating our 11th anniversary of never having owned an iPad. https://fsf.org/campaigns/apple -

Others have, but I've been using #Win10 or my #iPad for media playing and voicechat.
I did have a #Windows issue where a chat could not find my microphone except during audio setup, but I think it was because #WinUpdate required a reboot. -

Sorry, #Apple. You got your X hundred dollars. You are not getting any more.
Looking forward to retiring this tablet and closing my AppleID account. -

I've since reinstalled Manyverse, and I'm currently upgrading to iOS 14.1.
My impressions of iOS 14: irritating as f*ck. Every few hours (almost every time I unlock the screen), it asks me to enter my AppleID password. You know, that long and complex machine-generated string that is difficult to enter correctly on a mobile device? Yes, that one.
Oh, and I keep getting random permission screens popping up. No, I do not want to set your browser as the default. I'll set Firefox Focus as default, if I can. Otherwise, I'll leave it as Safari.
This is a Gen5 device, so it will likely go unsupported within a year from now. I may just wipe it and ship it to #sonTwo, so they have something that #GS3 can play with. I have an old Samsung Galaxy tablet that I was already planning to send.
(Funny story: he got ahold of his mother's newer iPad and pushed so many random buttons that she couldn't even log in to back it up. She had to completely wipe it, losing some data in the process.)
We agree that children spend too much time with electronics, but the problem is that even if you don't intend for him to spend time with electronics, he's automatically drawn to them. He discovered grandpa's watch the first day I was there, and if it lit up or made the slightest sound, he came running. -

I could update the tablet if I deleted the app, but I will not. I doubt that #iOS 14 has anything that I would call “better”. -

It never worked right (which I put down to Apple restrictions on background apps), but after an update, I could not even find my ‘roster’ of contacts. I understand it is an awful platform, but you don’t have to make things worse.
I may try #SiskinIM (which I believe is made by the #Tigase folks) next. I do understand that Apple’s background app restrictions will also make that one stink, but hopefully they won’t make any ruinous choices of their own. -

I suspect that the link explains why usage was so low. (I've been using it, only because I'd never seen that post until tonight.) Tootdon will be deleted tomorrow and I'll have to find another app to use on my #iPad. -

Like most iOS software, my reaction while using it is “F*ck! F*ck! F*ck!” until I close the app. Tell the #CIA that they can legally waterboard any #iDevice user, since they are already used to torture and seek it out. -

My gen5 #iPad now discharges in 1.5 days, even if I'm not using it, thanks to iOS 12.x. Some of my software broke, too.
The $EMPLOYER #iPhone 5S lasts even shorter. -

It turns out I left it at the office on Friday. -

It also depends on what codecs are installed. The only thing I own that can view #Twitch is my #iPad. -

Now we use #Wire, but I have a $300 tablet to use it on.
