pixel 10 and pixel 10a dont seem that far apart spec wise?

yes, the 10a doesnt have the back magnets, it doesnt have 12gb of ram and it doesnt have a telephoto cam + probably a slightly worse selfie cam
but thats it? arent the A series like the budget phones? and the non A series the flagship ones? why so similar?
also apparently, the 10a has a slightly longer battery life

why does community always recommend a pretty mediocre level (when it comes to enjoyment) to beginners to that demon difficulty?

the site im using is GDDL because i think its the most accurate way of finding out how good a level is for the most part, not perfect but thats all we have though

99% of levels on GDDL are between 4.75 and 8.50 when it comes to the fun factor, or basically, how much people enjoyed the level and most levels that the community recommends to new people to that specific demon difficulty are basically usually tier 5's or low tier 6's
why?
to be fair levels like B and magma bound are tier 8's but most arent that high
so why doesnt the community which claims to be very knowledgeable on this game recommend better levels? and by "better" i mean more generally enjoyed levels
surely you guys have beaten more than just 1 or 2 demons of that difficulty right? you beat something other the most popular demon, right??? like i beat over 600 easy demons, and i would never recommend something like the nightmare or platinum bronze or the lightning road to a new player who wants to beat his first easy demon because i know better levels exist

why recommend cataclysm as a first beginner extreme? i beat thanatophobia as my new hardest and i planned on going for a tier 21 - 23 difficulty extreme demon and when i asked people for recommendations, half of the comments mentioned cataclysm, and i tried it a few times in practice mode and it sucks
and then i tried niwa which is another easy beginner extreme and i actually enjoyed it
so why do people even bother with such cheap answers where they just pick the most popular demon of a certain difficulty, this isnt even a "recommendation" because its not "recommended" based on really anything, other than the popularity of the level
popularity doesnt mean "fun"

why do people not consider android to be linux? when it literally is a linux based OS

i see a lot of videos on youtube where people download linux on their old android phone, but isnt that just replacing linux with linux? i get why people do it and why android is seen differently but its still linux, calling it something else is insincere

for how long do you guys plan on using this phone?

i had the phone for 2 years now but really it still does everything i want it to do, and the battery is still really good, barely any worse vs 2 years ago

why is the 256gb variant so much more expensive?

thats quite a difference
and everywhere i check the 256gb variant (the non gimped variant storage wise) is always over 30 percent more expensive than the 128gb variant
like im surely not going to be buying a 128gb phone in 2026 which i plan on keeping for 5 years
so whats up with these prices?0 i get ram and storage prices went up which started back in october of 2025 but were talking about measly 128gb extra storage for 125 euros?

this subreddit is kind of inactive

not saying thats a bad thing, its just telling me that people are probably happy/content with their a55's and dont have much to complain about
a55 is also kind of a boring phone, doesnt do anything exciting but does all the things i need

HATE the "men are stupid" dating trope

to be fair, the example i gave isnt even as bad (ive seen worse) but the trope generally speaking doesnt just describe a communication gap, it assigns the blame for that gap to the wrong person, the woman choses not to say "I like you, heres my number" to the guy she likes, the guy then fails to decode a cryptic non verbal test/game basically and then the tweets conclusion is "men are dumb" rather than "thats a confusing way to communicate your feelings to someone"

why did we as a society normalise indirectness and fear of rejection/humiliation?

Why is the bladerunner series set in the near future (2019, 2049) instead of something like the year 2700?

as in, the series seems WAYYYYYYY too advanced technologically speaking for a near future setting, i assume the creators/developers of this series are aware of that as well so whats the actual reason behind the dates?

are we sure that 6gb ram a56's even exist like AT ALL?

from what ive seen from my research, 6gb a55's AND a56's do NOT exist
all the sources and sites and retailers claiming otherwise are WRONG
samsung has never sold on their site officially a 6gb a55 or a56 and even asking samsung directly, they literally do not exist
the base ram configuration for both phones is 8gb, ive also asked multiple people on both subreddits to show proof of them having a 6gb ram model and they either never did or did and then found out that they actually have the 8gb model

so please for anyone who THINKS they own a 6gb ram a56, please show a screenshot from the device care menu

go to settings > device care and screenshot the ram section

why cant even now in 2026 a lot of indie or AA/AAA games replicate the graphics AND graphics requirements of games such as star wars battlefront 2 or battlefield 1 (mid 2010's games)?

i understand that newer gen 2020s games do look better technically if we look at numbers but you have to stop and look for those differences to really notice the difference, i definitely feel like were in the era of diminishing returns now and overall i feel like the current generation so far has been quite a let down
it would be nice if people were still making games similar to bf1 or battlefront 2 in the 2 aspects i mentioned in the title, pretty much everyone will be able to play those games, people with 2012 hardware and people with 2025 hardware, so why are most game studios not doing this? would it not make MORE sense to make it available to a LARGER pool of gamers? more people = more money right? OR maybe they can allocate the extra effort to building a bigger map, a more interactable map or something like that instead of going all out on graphics
