    Also remember you can block keywords! Under blocks & filters in settings you have a bunch of options. It’s a good option for when you feel like people are talking too much about something you’re just not interested in.

    If you browse the All feed, also don’t hesitate to block active communities you have no interest in.

    In general I feel it’s easier to have a somewhat positive experience here, though there’s always trolls everywhere. Standard troll rules apply - block if you feel like it, report if it breaks rules, don’t feed.

    Welcome! :)




  • Thank you! It seems to sometimes be on sale for a little less than €900, which is a lot but if it’s the only decent alternative out there I might have to consider it.

    It does have features like resolution well above full HD and support for 3D though, both of which are completely lost on me. But it seems you’re right there’s not much to choose from at a lower price range without opting in for a bunch of anti-features.







  • I was interested in getting some, so checked out the website of Shokz. On the positive side they are very dedicated to openness—their slogan is “be open” —, but on the negative side they define openness narrowly as “not covering your ears”.

    I was hoping to find information about sustainability and repairability, and for a second I got my hopes up. Oh well.

    Hopefully we’ll see some less crap products in the future. I feel like the technology is promising. Will be watching this thread—I don’t have suggestions, I just found their dedication to openness to be amusing.
