I’ll go first: Silence Unknown Callers and Filter Unknown Senders on iPhone. No unwanted calls or texts. If someone really needs to reach me but isn’t in my contacts, they can just send a text - it goes into a separate list.

    Yeah, for audiophiles this is actually a better situation now tbf

    You can get inline USB-C DACs that are head and shoulders above the DACs that were used in 95% of smartphones out there. Or more frustratingly with Samsung, they used to (probably like 8-9 years ago now lol) include half decent DACs but configure them terribly which could only be fixed with custom ROMs, so I had to choose between shit audio or my banking apps.

    Average Joe that doesn’t care about that just uses Bluetooth today anyway since you can get cheap Bluetooth headphones for about the same as cheap wired headphones (where the audio is going to be crap whatever you do). And of course there’s the cheap but passable inline DACs they used to include with phones that you can pick up for pretty cheap if you really want to use cheap wired headphones for whatever reason.

    It was definitely annoying when they all just got rid of them, but at least now when I want to use my wired headphones on a device, I know it will actually sound good and isn’t down to what was the cheapest DAC they could get away with putting into the device itself.
