  • Third party apps don’t have the ability to back up in the background all the time the way the native Photos / iCloud experience does. They need to be periodically opened to have temporary background access.

    Launching the third party camera app cannot be done from the lockscreen.

    What you’re not understanding is the entire point of folks’ complaints. With arbitrary restrictions put in place by Apple, there cannot be full parity in functionality between Apple’s native apps / cloud experience and those that can delivered by third party apps. While it’s possible to use third party apps, there are a bunch of little quirks and inconveniences that will ultimately drive the user back towards the native apps and spending money on Apple’s cloud service.









  • I’d be looking at a used 2070/Super or 3060/Ti in your situation.

    If you’re on Windows, consider that you have a year of support left with Windows 10. You can buy further security updates from Microsoft, from 0patch, or with an “unsupported” Windows 11 upgrade. There’s also Linux if the games you want to play are supported :)

    With that in mind, you can consider the alternative of limping along with what you’ve got and saving for the next year to do a more substantial upgrade / overhaul.



  • What framerate are you targeting?

    I find it highly unusual that your CPU is reaching 100% in TF2 of all games.

    Your system also shouldn’t be “unresponsive in general use” with these specifications.

    Based on paper specifications alone, I’d be leaning towards the 3060/3070 as the most meaningful upgrade in gaming performance. However, I suspect there may be an issue with your software environment or an undiagnosed hardware issue.
