American accents in English voiceovers
Does anybody else find it weird that whenever you have a voice over, be it satnav, Bluetooth speakers, promotional videos (of European companies!), etc. they almost always have American accents? Even before the whole buy European movement took off I found this weird, especially since British or Irish accents are way nicer to listen to in my opinion.
You're viewing a single thread.
Most of the stuff i interact with lets you choose between both.
Supply and demand i guess.
I've set my maps to German. It insists on speaking American English instead. You can no longer set Google apps to different languages.
I avoid Google products.
I mostly use OSM but the other day my wife had to find something and she only knows how to use Google Maps. She's a software developer, by the way 🙄
Annoying though that the Google Pixel is said to be one of the most privacy-friendly... i don't trust it, but why is that even said?
Because it's one of the most easily rootable phones and the only one supported by Graphene OS, which is an alternative android considered by most as the gold standard for privacy.
Hmm.. how about /e/OS?
Dunno, do your homework.
I'll inclined towards Lineage someday as that supports my phone.
