Welcome to Retrospec™, the last social media network you will ever need. You are one of the few selected to test this exciting new platform based on our cutting-edge algorithms. Less than two hundred invitations have gone out, and membership is not currently open to the public. However, we hope you will come to see how useful Retrospec™ is, given time. We have for your use a variety of features such as text, voice, video, and image posts. We encourage you to explore our many options.

Please feel free to use this post as a network mingle. Every toplevel can be considered a new post, and threadjacking is permitted. No NPC response will be given. As a reminder, everything besides uploading a profile picture and information was locked until this post. Usernames are the character's full real AU names, not aliases or chosen nicknames or usernames, and seemed to have filled themselves in; nothing characters do can change or obscure their names currently. Oddly, profile pictures still cannot be swapped out at this time, so hopefully you took a good one.

what's with the new trend in auto-downloading things? first it was that U2 album, then the other day i had like 90 podcasts saved in my phone, and now this...

anybody on here using an android? or is this just an apple problem?
youraffection: unless sated otherwise... (withered flowers forget)

[personal profile] youraffection 2017-02-01 05:43 am (UTC)(link)
hey at least it was U2 right?
sorry tho iphone here
browbeater: Feelings are not a good thing for this relationship. (I'm detached shallow and needy.)

[personal profile] browbeater 2017-02-01 05:46 am (UTC)(link)
well yeah but
i'm not a big u2 fan

cool, so maybe one more point in favor of "this is an apple problem"
youraffection: (even if they tried to bribe me)

[personal profile] youraffection 2017-02-01 05:52 am (UTC)(link)

Knox isn't helping. No, I'm on Android and it isn't working any differently here than it appears to for everyone else.

At least it's arguably better-designed. And light on data usage, too, though that may change with use.
browbeater: Because I hate them for not asking me if I wanted starbucks. (Who ordered the pumpkin spice latte?)

[personal profile] browbeater 2017-02-01 06:07 am (UTC)(link)
oh

well there goes one possible culprit. i guess i feel better knowing i wasn't suckered by apple or anything
rosettareflected: (Not at all.)

[personal profile] rosettareflected 2017-02-01 06:20 am (UTC)(link)
It's almost more refreshing, though - no self-respecting modern app develops for only one platform. Even the bad stuff. You have to chase the market share, or you'll just be left behind.

[personal profile] constellates 2017-02-01 07:01 am (UTC)(link)
I would say that it seems like it's everyone's problem

but it doesn't seem to have hit everyone in the city? but I don't understand the "algorithm" that they used to select participants since I haven't seen a trend...

except for people who like cats?
browbeater: Yep. (TFW you gotta but you dun wanna.)

[personal profile] browbeater 2017-02-01 07:35 am (UTC)(link)
i'm firmly in the "meh" category on cats
constellates: (★ but tonight i need a damn explain)

maybe]

android here... same problem. It downloaded on my phone like an update and I couldn't uninstall it.

also that U2 album wasn't really that great, was it??? itunes downloaded it onto my computer. i guess it was so boring they couldn't justify making people pay for it
Edited 2017-02-01 08:25 (UTC)
browbeater: That's all I got. (Well. Fuck.)

[personal profile] browbeater 2017-02-01 08:28 am (UTC)(link)
i don't know, i don't like u2

and also i don't like things downloading themselves into my phone with all its 8gb space

[personal profile] caelestialis 2017-02-01 09:45 am (UTC)(link)
Were any of those podcasts interesting to you, at least?

[ she's focusing on that mostly because… anisley may or may not be on the market for listening to some new things when grading papers. ] And to answer your question: I'm an iPhone user too. 📱🍎👋 This would fit in with their history of 'have some surprise downloads, we think you'll like it!' trend.
browbeater: u dork (#makes excuses for reading books)

[personal profile] browbeater 2017-02-01 04:14 pm (UTC)(link)
it was a news podcast, so not the most interesting unless that's what you're into

if you're looking for podcast recs though, i'd say the dollop

and it looks like google and samsung have jumped on the trend too, with the auto-downloads

Lou. Uh, it's Togusa. Did this catch everybody in the Department?

We've got to report this, right?
browbeater: I had a lot of money in that wallet. (I do not approve of this bullshit.)

[personal profile] browbeater 2017-02-01 04:15 pm (UTC)(link)
i don't think it did-- the people it did catch are... interesting. to say the least.

i was planning on reporting it to the office first thing in the morning.

It's the future of convenience, apparently. Even when it's a convenience we don't want.

I didn't mind having a sudden influx of podcasts, at least.
browbeater: Yep. (TFW you gotta but you dun wanna.)

[personal profile] browbeater 2017-02-02 03:59 am (UTC)(link)
only if they're good podcasts

but i also only have 8gb so... yeah
