Hi there! Welcome to the latest edition of Installer, where I, Jay Peters, spotlight exciting tech and cool apps while David is away on parental leave. Let’s dive into what’s making waves this week!
First up, Summer Games Done Quick (SGDQ) is happening right now! This is a week-long charity marathon where gamers speedrun their favorite titles. If you love seeing games played at lightning speed for a good cause, check it out on Twitch or catch replays on their YouTube channel. It’s always fun to see how quickly gamers can complete classics and newer titles alike.
Next, let’s talk Samsung’s new foldable phones. The Galaxy Z Fold 7 and Z Flip 7 have just hit the market, and they look impressive! The Fold 7 is incredibly thin, but at a price of $1,999, it’s not for everyone. The Z Flip 7 also features a sleek edge-to-edge cover display, which seems like a nice upgrade.
On the smartwatch side, the Galaxy Watch 8 has made waves with its rounded-square design, balancing style and comfort on your wrist. And speaking of unique designs, the Nothing Phone 3 was recently unveiled, boasting an eye-catching camera layout that sets it apart.
What’s Trending in Tech
The world of apps keeps evolving. Recently, developers are focusing on community-driven platforms. Amid the ongoing changes on Reddit, Christian Selig, known for creating the popular Apollo for Reddit app, has turned his attention to a new project, Pixel Pals, an engaging pet game app. His insights on the state of community-driven apps give us an interesting look at the future of social media.
Experts suggest that in the coming years, mobile technologies will lead to a surge in community-focused applications. A recent survey showed that 67% of users prefer platforms that emphasize real connections over merely algorithm-driven content.
User Favorites
Here’s what some users are buzzing about this week:
- Nick recommends Tiny Touchtales for its addictive strategy games, like Card Thief.
- Jeanne swears by Nova for website creation, describing it as a top-notch tool for developers.
If you’re looking to explore more app recommendations, keep an eye on these new user favorites as they pop up online.
Before we go, just a fun tidbit: The Taskmaster series, a hilarious British comedy where comedians tackle outrageous challenges, recently wrapped up its latest season. If laughter is your aim, you can watch all episodes for free on YouTube.
Let’s keep the conversation going! Share what’s caught your interest in tech or apps, and maybe we’ll feature it next week.
