wassup
as most of you probably know, my last craft was posted a month ago.
almost an entire cycle of the celestial body known as the moon has passed, and i still haven't posted lol
that, right there, is due to the fact that my 7-year-old iPad 5th Generation recently kicked the metaphorical bucket of obsolescence.
so, the device i use for creating and uploading crafts no longer exists, along with all 1284 of my SimplePlanes game files.
it's stuck in a bootloop, and everything i've tried hasn't worked.
it's useless to keep trying to fix it, as the battery isn't charging anymore and the device sadly no longer turns on.
in short, i probably won't end up getting a new iPad until around October this year, so i won't be posting any new crafts in that time.
so uh, stay tuned for random forum posts i guess?
bye lol
there is a list of users i tag in every new post of mine.
if you want to see my posts from now on, go here! :D

I was already starting to worry that something had happened
@TheFlightGuySP exactly what i was saying earlier but better
bruh :(( i am so sorry
Unless you specifically need an iPad, I'd recommend getting something that's actually feasible to repair and upgrade. At the very least, something with a removable SSD, that way if the rest of the device fails you can just remove the drive and transfer it over to something else.
If the main issue is cost, chances are you can find a used/refurbished laptop for substantially cheaper than a new iPad, and even if you couldn't, pitching in some extra money for something that's actually feasible to repair & upgrade is 100% worth it.
@keiyronelleavgeek566 noic
Ouch
same thing happened to me a time ago man
Shit, that sounds awful. Seems to be occurring a lot, as Rb2h said.
Bro everyone is getting their data lost recently
This may be a curse... I gotta backup my sp soon then lol
@keiyronelleavgeek566 i mean alternative brands, because y'know it's not just apple that exists, there are other electronic brands out there that are just as good as apple while being a fraction of the cost
Oh...
@Supersoli8 iCloud backup was turned on, but the files were in the
On my iPad
folder in Files, so i'm not sure if they backed up or not@YarisHatchback alternatives meaning what, exactly?
and this right here is why finding alternatives is important
