Do you know what proportion of the texty web instructs unknown crawlers to go away (or blocks them)?

Appreciated. The more things fill up with monetizing shit, the more I stay away. There's something beautiful in having higher purposes than grubbing for cash.

I miss those old days of even being permitted to go many pages in.

They may be people like me, where it's not about ignoring but rather that no one's ever told them how you reuse some sort of reference outsides yet put in very different insides, so they have no idea.
And I still don't know whether - speaking industry-wide - insides are generally quite different, or whether that varies greatly, and how a non-hardware-specialist might guess in a given instance.

There's probably a more suitable term than "modern" that we should generally be using, since "modern" consistently has a positive connotation.

I saw some discussion that it also resembles a Bookeen Notea strongly.
I don’t know much about the world of OEM whitelabeling, so it’s all interesting.

Does it make any difference worth caring about going from 2G to 3G to 4G? I know extremely little about telecom, and only remember reading once that something oldish with a name like s7 (but that's apparently not it) was so bad.

Thanks for spelling out some issues.
Yeah, the inherent fatness of fingers problem. And the lack of buttons on those fingers other-problem.
Looking at the resolutions, 1280x720 vs 1440x720, I would have just expected the phone experience not to feel terribly different. Of course it remains to be seen how much the PinePhone software adapts to landscape in wake of the keyboards coming.

That's interesting to me because I've been seeing some people impatient for the PinePhone external keyboard, but I've felt strong doubts I'd use one much.
