TECH NEWS I MISSED THIS MONTH

I haven't posted much this March, this is due to my preparations for my semester exams.
Anyway, check out some tech news I missed this week in memes and GIFs.
SAD NEWS FOR NIGERIANS: NO XIAOMI MI 5 ANYTIME SOON!
According to reports, Xiaomi flagship devices will no longer be sold in Nigeria. Wondering why? Apparently, Mi-fone (I can relate if you are wondering what/who they are. – They are a Mauritius-based phone company) feels that the Xiaomi MI series might create confusion with their brand since their names are similar, so they raised an injunction against them. No word on when the issue will be cleared :'(
YOUR INSTAGRAM FEED IS ABOUT TO “SCATTER SCATTER”
Brace yourselves Instagrammers, Facebook is about to ruin Instagram for you. They feel you miss an average of 70% posts, so to remedy that, they are introducing a Facebook-like algorithm that will sort images and videos based on what you are likely to be most interested in and not based on the most recent.
PLAYSTATION AND XBOX WILL SOON BE LOVERS
Finally, we are going to see something that many have longed for, a platform where PS4 and Xbox owners can play together all made possible by Microsoft.
CAN SOMEONE TELL SAMSUNG NOT TO MAKE THIS MOVE?
Samsung wants a piece of the social media cake, but I am sure they are not going to get it with what they are about to make. Meet Waffle, Samsung’s picture-based social media platform. How does it work? It will allow you posts pictures that your friends can waffle.
