No matter how many new apps come out, these still stay installed on every device I use.

What are your top 3?

Evernote used to be the note-taking app back in the day. Just curious. Is anyone still using it regularly now? Or have you moved on to something else? What made you stay or switch?

Ask ChatGPT to pick a random number between 1 and 100.”

Meanwhile ChatGPT every single time: 73 😭

Why is 73 somehow the unofficial “random” number for AI? Anyone else noticed this?

I have a doubt and a slight fear. Nowadays, many companies are struggling or closing because of the AI revolution. So, what if one day Google decides to shut down its search engine and Gmail services? We can’t assume these services will exist forever, right?

We already saw what happened to Yahoo after Google became dominant. Now AI models like ChatGPT are starting to replace Google Search and some of its services.

My main concern is that almost everyone in the world uses free Gmail accounts for website and app logins, banking registrations, communication, work, and even government services. So, if Google ever decides to close these services in the future, what would be the best alternative?

U.S. President Donald Trump is reportedly taking major American CEOs including Elon Musk, Tim Cook, and Kelly Ortberg on a visit to China.

iPhone Fold, iPhone Ultra, iPhone Flip, or something completely different? Share your guesses.

Back in the day, Flickr was the place to upload and share photos online. First they offered 2GB free space, then later an incredible 1TB free storage which felt unbelievable at the time.

After SmugMug bought Flickr, things slowly went downhill in my opinion. The free plan became limited, many users left, and platforms like Instagram and Google Photos took over.

Anyone here still actively using Flickr in 2026? Or have you completely moved on to other platforms?

With AI tools answering questions instantly, I’m curious do you still visit Wikipedia regularly? Would love to know how your habits have changed.

Amazon once tried to make a smartphone called the Fire Phone.

It had some interesting ideas, but most people ignored it and it disappeared quickly.

Did anyone here actually use one? Why do you think it failed?

Just curious, does anyone here use Grok as their daily/main AI assistant?

How has your experience been compared to ChatGPT, Claude or Gemini?
