  • Let be honest, not everyone lives in USA\Canada. From where I’m from, average salary about ~500 euro and a good toy costs a lot less. So, paying 180 from your month income just for dildo is kinda too much for average person in Balkans part of Europe, Russia (well, delivering not working for them anyway, cause they cosplaying nazi Germany), most of Asia (except China, Japan and some other countries) and maybe Africa, but we not talking about them there. Not to mention, that just what I remember (too lazy to google average salary for every part of world) and I have one friend from USA, that also struggles to get decent income to afford at least food, so yea, even statistics can be controversial on those. Don’t know how situation in Australia tho, but those guys have spiders, they don’t need dragon toys. My point is, that $200 for a toy is too much. That a luxury item at this point, like a premium car or maxed out macbook. That a bit weird, but it is what it is I guess.

    I can’t even open reddit on a phone nowadays, cause my preferred sub have 18+ posts and reddit don’t let you access that if you not logged in. Also, there a notification, that I need to use shitty official mobile app. Also, there notification to login via google. Also, there a notification… Nope, I not using this shit ever again.

    Have in mind, that custom ROM may not appear at all. My Redmi K30 Ultra is an awesome phone, without ugly dot in the screen, but unlike it’s global counterpart “K30 Pro”, my “china only” phone have different cpu and no other ROM’s for it cause of that. China only also means, that this phone do not have NFC support for gpay (only huawei wallet and some weird china\russian software for some reason) and no gapps installed (like, at all, even tho playmarket will work after manual install). Also, 1/3 of OS is not translated at all, even tho english one of the few languages that supported even on china only rom. Also, you need root to “spoof” your phone ID otherwise some banking soft may not acknowledge this phone (altho, this is very unlikely). Another problem, that all xiaomi phones require you to use official app for windows with connected xiaomi account, then wait for ~2 weeks and only then unlock your bootloader (and for anything bootloader related, like installing different recovery, gaining root or install different ROM).
