Rayman Legends is without a doubt my favourite coop platformer with fantastic music and great fluid controls. I strongly recommend it, it’s tons of fun

I agree, but after I tried three FOSS ones that were hard to set up and had very bad voice quality I gave up and tried Guilded which is working great. The most important feature I need is ability to locally mute people which not many apps have for some reason. What would you recommend I use?

Guilded is really similar to Discord, but Roblox bought them so you need a Roblox account to use it. It’s great for voice chat.

Fair point. Sustainability really should be a priority. I don’t always return them to the case because a don’t use them for too long at a time. But even if I do, charging them for 10% isn’t the same as charging them for 100%. (I’m just stating that because the “5 year battery life claim” is absurd).

If you’re a heavy user wired ones will probably be better for you, but I reccoment trying out both. I was really against the bluetooth ones before I bought a pair and now I’m really happy with them. It all depends on your situation.

Yes it does because no manufacturer claims the lifespan in years, they say you get 2000 charging cycles. The 5 year number is derived from 2000 / 365 = 5.48 and that assumes you are charging them fully every day.

Look buddy, I’m not a battery expert and I can tell you aren’t either. You can’t get an easy number because the chemistry is complex and the way you use them changes things. When you do get a nice clean year number it depends on many things so making broad proclamations isn’t very useful.

Switch sides every so often. When I start in the morning I can do about 5 mins on one side, but after a couple of switches I can stay like that for 30 mins. When you don’t feel comfortable switch.

It’s minimum 5 years if you charge them every day. I charge mine maybe once a week when I use them regularly. So claiming that all lithium ion bateries last 5 years is misleading. Most manufacturers claim you have minimum of 2000 charging cycles.

I carry my phone in my pocket so the wire that’s close to the jack bends very frequently and gets damaged. I’m glad you were able to find good wired buds. I searched for years and wasn’t as lucky as you. But since I switched to no-name bluetooth earbuds I’ve had no problems so I’m very happy.

Are you claiming that the battery stops working after 5 years? As far as I know the maximum battery charge gets lower with time but the device is still functional. It just lasts a bit less.

Yup, strengthening the back muscles is the most important part. I got rid of my lower back pain by sitting like this for half an hour (sometimes more) after I wake up: https://lowbackpainprogram.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/09/how-to-sit-to-relieve-back-pain.jpg

At the start it’s a bit hard before the necessary muscles toughen up, but after a couple of days it’s no problem at all and that sitting pose is quite enjoyable. Thats the only lower back strengthening I do daily and for the past six months I feel the best I felt since I injured my lower back so I highly recommend it.
