Gib mir ein altes Telefon und ich bin die nächsten Tage beschäftigt.

Aktuell Nokia Lumia 930 mit Windows Phone 8.1. Ein wunderschönes Telefon. Aber man kann es im Alltag nicht mehr benutzen. Der Browser und alle anderen Apps funktionieren kaum noch (auch ein Update auf Windows Mobile 10 hilft da nicht weiter). Und Microsoft hat 2021 (?) den Support beendet. Schade!

Did my IT duty and my mom now has a new . And with that likely the last device went offline 🤣

Don't... just don't...
IF MSFT was to comply, don't expect to get Live Tiles back, but rather some sort of crappy Android like launcher like #Win11. Not to mention that it will be exploited as a #CoPilot surveillance machine 🫤

I think every graphical toolkit should have a Metro style as a choice.

Speaking of nostalgic tech one of such gadgets for me are WindowsPhone smartphones, predominantly the ones with #windowsphone7 - great typing experience, great cameras (for that time), blazing fast UI, sleek and comfortable in hand. They were miles ahead of Android phones at the beginning. What a shame it's all got vanished :(

@Sascha leider kenne ich da keine gute Vergleichsseite, denn das wäre ne gigantische Tabelle...

Die Situation mit #Android ist durchwachsen, und reicht von

Schlimmer finde ich nur #iOS oder gar #WindowsPhone seinerzeit… :vomit: :puke:

I forgot that Windows Phone only showed a close button on the focused window in Multitasking but I think being able to close other windows is more useful. If you want to, I can add an option to only show the close button for the window at the center of the screen.

I miss when the corporate centrist application distribution store rules were basically "no malware, nothing above an M rating, no alternate browser engines, and no dynamic recompilers. Have fun!"
