  • I'm feeling like I wanna worry less about charging devices recently

    I do not know how much that watch lasts, but the Mi Band 6 that I had since years ago lasted to me up to 10 days (currently is half that), and that was good enough for me 😬

  • I barely use YT on the desktop (mostly used with Smart Tube then YT Revanced) to even face these issues...

    Glad to know the Ublock team is still fighting this as soon as possible.

  • What is a religious holiday movie?

    I think I see the most mainstream ones and haven't really found them to be religious.

  • I am gonna cheat and name multiple apps with the same/similar purpose:

    1. Boost, Summit, Eternity, Voyager (Sync for Lemmy is out of this place... I still use Sync for Reddit Revanced though)
    2. Feedly/Feeder
    3. Firefox Beta
    4. Bitwarden
    5. Obtanium/Droidify
    6. Nekogram
    7. YouTube/YT music Revanced/Pocket Casts
    8. Spotify
    9. Obsidian/Syncthing
    10. Material Files

    Honorable mention to Kinestop, finally being able to use my phone on a vehicle? It was the last place where I would dare to doom scroll!

    I seriously could go on... I have too many apps.

  • Racoon for lemmy

    This is the 1st time I decided to check about this (I have heard that name before here), after a 1st glance it looks a lot like Boost for Lemmy, and since Boost seems to be the best working client for me at this moment (image and posts load for example is way faster than Summit, Voyager and Eternity), in terms of speed Sync for Lemmy is faster, but it is so broken with my current instance that is not worth to use it anymore.

    I might install Raccoon soonish :)

  • Yeah, I'd be concerned about that too... I mean who is not in for a Switch replacement/successor?

  • Cable TV? Yeah, I once in a while hop in for some free IPTV and deal with what comes with it (mostly use Pluto TV BTW) that is mostly for background noise of course, for TV Shows, Anime and Movies I use my own means 🏴‍☠️

    I refuse to end up watching YouTube and reels exclusively lol.

  • Still? Is it powerful enough to run the latest games without tweaking?

    Not criticizing, I genuinely want one, but tech advances quickly and it seems everyone is jumping to the PC handheld market (and I am glad for it).

  • And videogames too... At least that was one of the History Channel documentaries said the other day I was zapping (This reads really old, I swear this wasn't 10 years ago or something).

  • 10, I probably could have more, but some are auto updated with Droidify and sometimes their inbuilt updater, tbh it is kinda a stressing factor to me knowing that I could have more apps there but I maybe don't know lol.

  • I definitely noticed it and that is why I got back to it as my main app for a while... But hell MIUI is not kind with it, it kills it so quickly and the app takes its time in re-opening :/

    I did all the good practices to avoid the app being killed by MIUI, but no dice.

  • I remember when Nintendo took the same approach with The Legend Zelda Tri Force Heroes game... I don't think it worked out that great...

  • For seeding? Out of luck as I don't have a VPS currently, I used one to open my ports with some hacky ways using Wireguard and IPtables stuff, if there is a better way I would like to know lol.

    Now I just constantly seed in hopes that people with the ports opened can access my stuff.

    For accessing my files, Zerotier and Tailscale have been a godsend.

    I also happen to have IPv6 support and I can access some exposed services through it without too much hassle, Plex and Bitwarden are two big examples.

  • Sadly the country has a lot of other shit to worry about, I don't expect that to change in the short or long time lol.

  • Are you pirating shit? Yes? Use a VPN.

    I pirate and seed shit from Mexico no issues without VPN... My only headache is CGNAT.

  • Okay? But what does Whatsapp has anything to do with the other? DM?

    I don't consider WhatsApp social media.

  • However the notorious charging port ribbon cable seems to have broken again and this might be some of the last things I write with the phone :(

    Yeah, that is one annoying issue for sure.

    It happened to mine as well, what I did year (years?) ago, was to use a tiny piece of electric tape in the flex to make pressure and make it to recognize the charger as well...

    Still working fine after that.

    If your device stops recognizing data I think it is game over though.

  • Just confirmed random button is not working in Sync for Reddit what a shame, but well, what did I expect about Reddit.
