  • You are the exception, not the norm.

    Most people are on the bandwagon of buying the shiny new thing with a bigger version number once every year or two (even when the old one still works perfectly).

    The mecha comet is one of those devices that get hyped up among the nerds, but after a month 90%of them will either gather dust on a shelf or end up on the second hand market for cheap. You can see the same pattern in many nieche hardware subcultures, linux phones, flipper zero, raspberry pis, various digital music gadgets, AI bs hardware etc.

    (I have like 20 random things like that rotting in a box, just to be transparent)

    is was

    1 Star rating in the play store since december update

    And even before that, it had wrong POI all the time and didn’t update osm data to stay up to date.

    I tried every open source app I could find, but none of the open source ones have live traffic, which makes them completely useless for where I live. I honestly don’t understand why we can’t opt-in crowdsource that.




  • It does sound like one, but it isn’t. Ignoring the differences in UX:

    Passkey

    • Per-service key pair, unique per domain, Identity bound only to that specific account on that site
    • Challengeresponse via WebAuthn
    • Trust anchored only in the target service (no external CA)
    • Private key sealed in OS / secure hardware keystore

    Certificate login

    • Single global identity usable across many services
    • TLS client authentication with certificates
    • Trust established via certificate authorities and chain validation
    • Private key stored in exportable file or smartcard
