Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- AI-generated comics aren't allowed.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

I bought an iPhone 15 even though my iPhone 11 still worked fine just because it had USB-C, so… I’m in this picture and I don’t like it.
It’s okay to keep up with the times. Don’t beat yourself up too much. You are doing things to make your life easier. It’s okay to do something just cause it feels good. Life is hard, do your best to make it easier
Indeed. I do try to at least have a reason, even if it's a bit silly-feeling.
Though I can say I haven't heard of any new phone features that made me care. I did purchase a new phone in the past year, but that was about wanting to get out of google's ecosystem before they finish building the wall around their garden.
So, for me at least, at this point it's more about avoiding anti features than looking for a shiney new feature.
I'm really not sure what a phone could even offer as a new thing to get me interested at this point. And I wonder if that will eventually be 6G (or newer) when they shut down the 5G networks.
