What are some tech products that you want that you can't seem to find? (lemmy.zip)

Stuff like a pretty case with slots for optical drives, a laptop with a shitton of ports and all-day battery life or anything else that seems to go against the trends.

This thread is for complaining about how you can't find it and (maybe) finding it thanks to someone else.

Only thing I could figure out (except maybe looking into Chinese payments systems which... No. Just no) is Garmin Pay.

Once set up, works with the smartwatch and does not use the phone, or the internet, at all.

I know it's not exactly what you asked, but its what I managed to do. Garmin watches also work pretty great with Gadgetbridge :-)

You just made me consider a smartwatch... I haven't wanted a watch that can become obsolete because of its tech but if that helps me degoogle it might be different

I don't wear a watch but if it fixes the problem, might be worth looking in to.

Do bear in mind that not all banks and/or cards are supported. Out of my 6 payment cards, over 3 banks (I know, ridiculous), only 3 are compatible. One bank is not compatible at all, the other one supports the debit card on Garmin Pay but not the credit card.

I knew that before hand. Garmin has a list... Somewhere.
