Microsoft Sharepoint has a Wiki. The Wiki can not generate a table of content.

There used to be apps in the iOS app store that were nothing but a big "I'm rich" symbol. They would be listed for some shit like $10,000 in the app store and all they did was,at best, have a button that played a sound to indicate that you were in fact rich lol.

Paid calculator apps.

Not only are many of them paid - but they are subscription as well. Imagine paying a monthly fee for your goddamn calculator.

Not useless as such but a wallpaper app or something that expects you to pay £5.99 a month to use. Fuck all the way off with that

Didn’t MKBHD launch some wallpaper app for $12 a month? I heard about it and just figured he was another tech YouTuber who lost touch

He then follows up that face plant by getting caught going 85 MPH in a school zone. MKHB is crashing out hard.

Spotify and apps like it. Imagine paying a subscription to a subpar selection of music when you could just download mp3s. Imagine having skipping a song being a privilege. Are you an abused kid? Is drinking water a privilege too? I paid once for BlackPlayer simply because it's my favorite music player app. The most important features were free.

Downvoted for hating on Spotify. That's just sad.

I don't care what crap Spotify offers; it's well known they go out of their way to avoid paying royalties to the artists. They're a leech, nothing more, and I will never support them.

[–] DrSteveBrule@mander.xyz 1 points 2 months ago

I down voted them for the weird tirade about privilege and being an abused kid. Idk wtf that has to do with hating spotify, but lemmy would look much better without that garbage in the comments.

huh? i use boost (and used to use it for reddit before the whole API thing) and haven't ever seen it ask for money or anything

[–] swab148@lemm.ee 1 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Same, it shows ads, but they're pretty easy to block. I paid for it just to help support the dev, he seems pretty cool.

If you're really the dev, please add support for spoilers, it's the only thing that makes me consider a different app. I've also been using Boost since Reddit, and I have a feeling spoiler tags worked there, but that was long ago and my memory is not that good.

Ready for the next version, thanks for your patience 🙏
