Has anyone gotten Gemini live on the free plan?

[–] Xylight@lemdro.id 2 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

I haven't gotten it yet. I notice that google will release anything they announce months after. It took ages for the editing feature to finally appear in google messages for me.

Really disappointing

[–] henfredemars@infosec.pub 2 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Do you consider the smartphone a mature product? I really struggle to think about where it could be improved excepting of course for those things that no manufacturer wants to do anymore like expandable storage. Every day it seems like the offerings are becoming more similar than different, and as an enthusiast I find that a little disappointing.

Same feeling here. On paper, we hit a mature product a while ago (Samsung s10e is usually praised as a very good smartphone), and it seems that manufacturers have been trying to push gimmicks since then to keep people interested.

But if you look around you, most people use phones for 3-5 years without any issue.
