"This week, I've been reading about wind turbines and phishing scams and oboes, keeping organized with the ultra-minimal Attn app, testing the lovely Aeronaut Bluesky client, spending too much time researching electric snow shovels, finally upgrading my trusty podcast headphones to a new Beyerdynamic pair, starting my umpteenth rewatch of Superstore, and debating whether to swap my iPhone 16 for an iPhone 17 or a Pixel 10. I think I'm going Pixel."
"I also have a question: What's your favorite non-Big Tech piece of tech? I'm hearing from a lot of people who, for a variety of reasons, want to ditch devices and services from Google or Apple or Amazon or Microsoft or any number of other companies. If you have, and you've had a great experience, tell me about it! I'm installer@theverge.com and @davidpierce.11 on Signal, and I want to hear everything you like. For now, lots to do, let's go."
