Anybody crashing a Cybertruck at highway speeds into one of those is instantly turned into red colored mashed potatoes

Why does that sound delicious 😭

Really like this!

Only one additional thing that came to mind - get a phone with lots of storage! My two previous Android devices died as a result of EMMC failure, and they had a pretty small onboard capacity (16GB, and 32GB)… my current device is 64GB and I now keep most of my data on a 512GB sd card.

Lots of empty storage space allows the EMMC firmware to perform wear levelling as needed, prolonging the life of this non-replaceable component. Most well-designed Android devices also run a “TRIM” on the internal EMMC storage when the device is idle, a kind of self-maintenance procedure that allows the firmware to keep track of how much space is unoccupied.

For Android users who are curious about the details (or have rooted devices and want to run a trim manually) see here

The last time I used Chrome was a fork called Rockmelt 🥴 then moved to Maxthon, then K-Meleon, and settled on Firefox

I do the same

Another option i’m aware of is CTRL+C, T, V and enter (Keyboard combo to Copy, open new tab, paste, go)

Sadly doesn’t work for gov level blocks that look at the SNI rather than blocking at DNS level

Edit: correction from ESNI to SNI

Lemmy itself is an echo chamber, to be completely honest with you.

While therapy is useful for people from various walks of life, it’s short sighted IMO to use it as an attack tool towards people whose views you don’t agree with… not everyone on the net shares the same views on things and has gone through the same experiences

I don’t think so… What are the main features you’re looking for from a launcher?

IMO a lot of the launchers nowadays have matured a lot, and in some cases I can imagine devs for free launchers don’t have 2k sitting around to buy the latest and greatest phone each year to update their launchers for compatibility with the latest Android APIs etc.

Personally I moved on from the standard sameish app grid type launchers and now use Niagara… the minimalism and simple design were a big draw factor for me - paired it up with some Lines icon pack to make everything look cohesive.

Kvaesitso (hope I spelt it correctly?) is a solid free alternative with a very similar feel to Niagara.

Not sure if I’d go back to app grid launchers, there’s not too much differentiating them nowadays IMO, and each app having different icon designs feels kinda cluttered now that I’ve not experienced it for a few years. Material You’s new unified icon design looks pretty nice though.

Ohh I was referring to the pic posted behind the “No problem” link in that user’s comment lol

I can hear the case vibration in that picture lol

All the alternatives work great for cycling, driving etc… but collapse instantly when you try and use them for public transport
