Blink really turned me off when they started running some automatic shell script that curl | bash's some static version of mosh from their servers without me noticing in order to 'improve' the experience.
No, don't run anything on my servers thanks. I don't even care if there's an option to turn it off.
Switched to termius, I'll miss being able to use custom fonts but meh.
I don't remember whether it had USB-C at the time or not, but it definitely didn't have Thunderbolt, which is a requirement for me.
> Samsung
Same with thunderbolt, but also I can't stand Samsung's version of Android. I wish Pixel Slate kept evolving. The Android tablet experience in general isn't great. Blink terminal is 12/10 experience, there is no app like that for Android. However, on Samsung, I would be able to just install NixOS in VM on the tablet, so there is that.
> Cool that it works, but that is very far from out of box experience.
Well, yes, but first it's just one cable and a game pad that I already had. I didn't buy any of those things specifically for the iPad. For me, it was an out-of-the-box experience.
I'd like to mention that when I got my iPad Pro, I had zero apple products at my house.
