New Blog Post — Actually, I don't hate smartwatches, I just hate Google, and I wish I didn't
Google's mediocre smartwatch software, abysmal level of effort and care put into optimisation and internal self sabotage between departments makes Pixel Watches look and feel incredibly unfinished and unappealing, while making Apple & Samsung look like the best smartwatch companies on earth.

Actually it could just be that I'm using an old discord client and that's why I'm not seeing styling
I forgot to add 2 features I wanted to add, I'll add those in 2.2
wo.mbat 2.1 is available @today as soon as it's approved on Google Play!
- FINALLY fixed links
- Open Graph support so you can preview links
- App doesn't explode while offline
- UI improvements
- Redesigned Wear OS app with tons more functionality

worm is adding a new feature that steals your token and deletes your account after 24 hours
it’s true because there’s no community note below this post saying otherwise
@jeffalo increase the firehose deletion time to like 10 hours so i have more wasteslop to read when i wake up
This is a non-descript link, the description of which can be seen with wo.mbat 2.1 without clicking http://go.joshattic.us/E74Z0F
I have been busy with school work and braindead issues on compressors github repo but wo.mbat 2.1 is coming soon:
- Better Wear OS app
- Finally fixing links because I FINALLY figured out why they don't work instead of just guessing
- opening wasteof links in wo.mbat once Jeff of loaf adds the thingy majig
- more cool features I've almost finished but dont want to leak yet
The Wear OS version of wo.mbat didn’t get much love for the 2.0 update so it’s getting its own special 2.1 update
This is funny I’m buying you
