I'm just holding this account in case :D

Am I really the only one not caring one bit for all the wireless earbuds?

They're expensive, easy to loose, they always have issues connecting, and thats more stuff to charge and to properly dispose the batteries of.

I can plug my headphones in my Nintendo switch, my laptop, my roku remote, my game controller, my Steam deck (soon!) and yeah my phone.

Like I get it's nice to not have a cable around your neck but is it _really_ worth all the downsides?

I am increasingly looking for an off ramp from corporate software without compromising usability, and we might finally be at a place where that could happen, and it is exciting. The walled garden may be for other people but it is increasingly a cage for me.
Here's a feature I want. If it's less than one bar of wifi is available, don't connect. Or like, aggressively disconnect if wifi signal is < than..

Open-source code at https://github.com/lobau/pairs

The base idea is that it's very hard to learn a language if your ears cannot distinguish the different sounds that the language uses. A lot of language tools go straight to the syntax, the grammar, the culture, but little is done to train the ear to just recognize the sounds. This is the goal of this app. No vocabulary, no lessons, just hearing reinforcement through short sessions.
