"That means companies like Whirlpool are missing out on services revenue, which is increasingly crucial to manufacturers facing rising input costs."

This trend stung me when replacing a printer.

It comes with a mobile app, which is just another #upselling #nagware and required for an initial wifi setup.

Not only it insists on being "logged in", it nags constantly about #subscribing for a toner service.

The overall UX would be absolutely atrocious if I wasn't running #Linux & #CUPS.

Thanks God we're all moving into driverless printing based on protocols, which makes #vendor #crapware irrelevant.

Does anyone else feel like every app is slowly turning into #nagware?

I think #YouTube really got the ball rolling when they started pushing premium every time anyone looked it's way.

It's like I'm in an open-all-hours market square filled with pushy salesman. The biggest laugh? I'm paying for it.

More fool me, I guess.

@markosaric who does Google think it is - Microsoft? 😅
