not just for the obvious capitalist evil reasons but also just because how much of it doesn't fucking work at all. no matter how much RAM my phone has it still can't juggle Pokemon Go and music/a podcast. my google shopping list just stopped updating itself for absolutely no reason. random shit just constantly goes wrong and there's absolutely nothing the end user can do besides hope a fix is pushed out that doesn't break anything else

    That sounds like a really weird error though. If you could get it to stop disconnecting itself you could probably use some kind of file recovery software to get stuff back if it was important at all.

      Yeah, that's the problem. There's nothing wrong with the USB port — I've even tried it on another computer, and it gives me the same behavior. It actually fucked up the USB drive's hardware somehow.
