Indian newpapers publish anything without any sort of verification. From reddit videos to whatsapp forwards. More than news, they are like an old chinese whispers game which is run infinitely. So take this with a huge grain of salt.

There was some news years back that compared data collection of apps on iOS (when Apple was taking measures to limit FB) and Reddit's official app was found to be even worse than the FB app.

Xhitter

(pronounced as shitter) Example: when musk gets a call from the zuck about the fight, he makes excuses about being on the xhitter. Sorry zuck, my ______ is paining and I'm on the xhitter, can't fight.

No, because the updates are in GBs and my internet is limited. I'd rather install nixos and spend time learning it than install flatpak apps.

When did they merge and where can we read about this merger?

Edit: Found it

Not a bug, that's how the apps are designed. If you look at the permissions the telegram app asks you can figure it out. Route audio, view wifi connection, pair with bluetooth devices. When you connect a bt speaker, the OS let's these apps know there's a device connected and the apps start. OS and the apps have no way of knowing what you want to do with a connected device.

Guess humans will have to copy these creatures if we want to travel in space sleeping in some frozen container.

I've slowly started shifting away from rice to wheat flour rotis. Can't afford jasmine rice in India lol. Everything's sold at export prices.

I installed squarehome a few days back and uninstalled it within a few hours. The homepage was too busy for me. Once you set it up, the apps with notifications start animating frequently. If it's just one you notice it. When it's 4-5 apps it becomes irritating to use. You either try to ignore them or try to stop them. You miss important notifications if you ignore, and you waste time running after each notification if you don't ignore. The simple notification drop-down is much better imo.

He means the recent apps or app overview feature. If you drag up from bottom and hold for a few seconds you get a thumbnail view with all the recent apps opened on your phone. In that view, you can select text seen inside the app.

One client downloading a torrent, second client viewing 1080p60 video from YT and clients 3&4 transferring a few TB of data through lan.

Bananas and plenty of water works for me. You can also make a banana milk shake (blend ripe bananas with cold milk in a blender) and drink it.

As a current pixel phone user, I'll never buy a Pixel device or any Google hardware again. Cost to performance ratio is not good in this phone. The chip heats if i try to watch a 140p YouTube video on the phone. The modem is really bad for voice and data. Shows low network signal always. Same sim if i put in another device with a snapdragon processor, that device shows almost full signal. Opened a complaint on Google support and they basically told me to talk to the cell operator. Like a cell operator will change settings for one customer. ಠ⁠_⁠ಠ Zero support from Google and they won't even acknowledge that their modems are bad. As long as Google uses this Tensor chip I won't go back to it. This is my first bad experience with a phone manufacturer. So, yup, never will buy any Google hardware again.

I had problems with Jerboa too. First it won't login, so i used to just browse without logging in. Then from today it just closes on starting. Got fed up and uninstalled it. Thunder works but keeps showing some blank page with error every minute. Tried wef or something which is a browser app but didn't like it. So ended up using Chrome but it uses too much battery so ditched that for Firefox now. I wonder if there is some rss feed for lemmy.

Happening to one of my accounts from years. I don't know which YT mod has a beef with me, but all the comments i make using that account get deleted in a minute on any channel. So i stopped using YT and use newpipe only. I don't even have the YT app on my phone.
