#SGGQA 180: macOS Big Sur issues, Galaxy S21 Leaks, and thoughts on my Silver Google Play Button
Apple is having a rough week with the launch of macOS Big Sur, and a handful of smaller issues on iPhone 12. The Galaxy S21 specs have leaked, and nothing looks TOO shocking for Samsung’s next premium phone. Conservatives are flocking to social media SAFE SPACES, but will they stay in their own echo chambers? And I finally got a Play Button award from YouTube, so let’s talk about those feelings. Let’s get our tech week started right!
