Welcome to this week’s casual kōrero thread!
This post will be pinned in this community so you can always find it, and will stay for about a week until replaced by the next one.
It’s for talking about anything that might not justify a full post. For example:
- Something interesting that happened to you
- Something humourous that happened to you
- Something frustrating that happened to you
- A quick question
- A request for recommendations
- Pictures of your pet
- A picture of a cloud that kind of looks like an elephant
- Anything else, there are no rules (except the rule)
So how’s it going?
I’m churning through my Christmas shopping, I’m getting close to finished! One kid left plus a couple of wider family presents and I’ll be all done!
Oh, except for me. I’m thinking of getting a (refurbished) Pixel Fold 9 for myself. Anyone had experience with one? I haven’t had a folding phone before, the reason I’m looking at the Pixel is because it supports GrapheneOS which I currently use on my Pixel 7 Pro. I have heard the Pixel 9 Fold had a poor battery life, so getting a second hand one seems a bit risky. But I am not going to get a new Pixel Fold 10 and carry around a $3000 phone, I cannot be trusted 😅
I would love to use GrapheneOS but i cant bring myself to get another pixel after my pixel 5a failed hard one day, randomly, in the middle of Nepal.
Pixel burned me and it will be hard to trust them again.
I’m waiting to see what their new phone will be to decide if I get a pixel or not
