I'm from Poland, a country which has one of the highest percentages of adblocker users. Most pages adapted to it by either doing nasty tricks to bypass them, or just slapping an unclosable popup telling you to disable your adblocker...

You just need to uncheck one setting, which you are directed to when you first try to install an apk... Now tell me, how can I get an alternative app store, or an internet browser, that doesn't use crappy Webkit on iOS...

And this is where whole "ecosystem" comes in. If you switch, you will either have to replace all of your devices, or have inconveniences while using them together.

Even if you are over 500€, there is no 'just buy a Mac' attitude. Maybe it's because a computer is a significant expense, so people value price/performance more, or maybe because schools have Windows PCs and nobody is us

Windows still has almost 90% market share, so it's not going to be killed anytime soon. For gaming, it's pretty much only choice, Macs have no hardware to handle them, and for Linux, I've tried switch many times, and it alway

iPhone 4 had it quite easy, take out two pentalobe (annoying, but screwdrivers are available) screws at bottom and you have access to battery. On the other side, every other phone on the market at the time had a battery cover and toolless r

Compare iPhone 6 to Xiaomi mi A1 or HTC U11 life. Both new are priced in the range of used 6. Both run latest Android and will have updates for 3-4 years, since they both have non vendor modified Android.
