Get your new PebbleOS watch by junkthief in c/technology@lemmy.world

Is that typical? I guess Apple sells watch bands at that price, but I’ve never bought a $60 Apple branded watch band. With the ubiquity of Apple Watches it’s not hard to find inexpensive Apple Watch bands even if they are proprietary. I don’t think that’s the case for other smartwatches, though.

YSK there are other Pixelfed mobile clients than the flagship app (that include dark mode!) by junkthief in c/youshouldknow@lemmy.world

I absolutely love dark mode and find light mode headache inducing but will never understand the elitist attitude beyond a quick joke. Accessibility is good in all forms!

Do you pre-order digital games? If so, why? by junkthief in c/games@sh.itjust.works

[-] junkthief 5 points 3 months ago

Interesting. I can’t see any practical reason TO preorder. Are they going to run out of digital copies? Am I going to forget to buy it? I’d rather wait for reviews and a couple patches.
