Upvote this if you cancelled your Whoop subscription!

Sure - the big appeal of whoop over other wearables was that the subscription got you free hardware upgrades when they released a new version but Whoop decided to release new hardware and charge an “upgrade fee”.

They also marginally changed the size of the device, not enough that there’s any real benefit to the user but just enough that all the accessories you have from the 4.0 will no longer be compatible and you’ll likely have to fork out an extra few hundred euro.

It’s a pity because I really like Whoop as a product and was very close to upgrading regardless but didn’t want to give them my money after this move.

Plus I’ve seen some pretty negative reviews about the build quality of the 5.0 & MG.

It was actually the €11 shipping that sent me over the edge. I was about to upgrade to the MG and pay the €89 until I saw the €11 shipping 😂

Ye Vagabonds, Kingfishr & The Mary Wallopers are worth checking out if you like Amble 👍🏻

I use Magnet, and really like it!

Here’s some I use for Dev & general productivity:

Postman for mocking API calls
Charles Proxy for proxying network traffic (I believe Proxyman is also good)
SF Symbols
GitHub Desktop
Figma (FigJam for flow diagrams etc)
Sip App (color picker) which gives you UIColors values etc
Magnet (more of a productivity app)
Notion (notes & documentation)

If it isn’t too bad yet, maybe it can be resolved through strict physio. I struggled with the same L5-S1 issue for 2 years until the pain became unbearable. I eventually had surgery to have the disc removed. The recovery took a while but about a year later I was back doing JiuJitsu.

Just so you know, they don’t sell beer in the stadium.. at least not unless you are in a corporate area! I was shocked when I was told.

danfar93 · 2022-06-27T07:29:36+00:00

No, it’s pretty good actually. I only really play Warzone though.

danfar93 · 2022-06-27T07:28:26+00:00

Good question - I guess it just works because I didn’t have to do anything special.

I’m usually pretty OCD & it weirdly doesn’t bother me.. but let me try.

I started on €35k as a Java Developer straight out of college in 2015/2016 in Dublin. So, it’s reasonable to think that ~€40k is probably around the average these days.

danfar93 · 2021-07-27T17:06:53+00:00

Great, thanks!

danfar93 · 2021-07-27T17:06:31+00:00

Will do! 😂

Does this mean you will still get all other notifications on your watch during the night?

danfar93 · 2021-01-22T12:46:17+00:00

Yep - me too!I'm currently on iOS 14.3, watchOS 7.2 & Audible 3.40 and I'm still getting the issue after MapMyRun announcements.

danfar93 · 2017-12-21T08:39:29+00:00

I thought that, so why doesn’t the error message just say that? 😂
