I started using YTDLP to download the shows I care about and have them saved offline.
I used to watch a show that got taken down. The show came back online few months later with heavy modifications to remove any potential DMCA footage from it.
Voyager and Thunder are two great open source clients.
Exactly, artificially limit the phone touch you to bigger phones.
Mind you, once you have many phones sharing the same hardware(for example the same 6.7inch screen), it becomes a question of adding or removing features (fast charging, AI, etc).
It makes commercial for companies to standardise on as many parts as possible.
Small phones are great but unfortunately we have become a niche. For companies to make products for a niche, they will have to charge them a high price or push them to different products.
The only small android phone I would consider is the Asus zen phone. And even that is +£700.
That was Winona Ryder back in 2001. She was arrested for shoplifting designer clothes from Saks Fifth Avenue in Beverly Hills.
It’s been a good update. Performance is good and the option are great.
Happy to have this as a final upgrade before going out of support next year.
Doctors. Always needed even in remote isolated towns.
Why upgrade from an s23 now?
Especially that you will be getting an Exynos in Europe.
I feel a repairability criteria needs to be added. We know the fair phone will top it always.
Can you give more details please?
Not sure what quality issues you are talking about here.
Good phone, too bad its a Chinese brand.
Redmagic is owned by Nubia. If there is something I would never do is get a Chinese branded phones. Wouldn’t touch them with a 10m pole.
The word Segue meaning transition.
Always used Segway instead which was incorrect.
Lemmy.world for me.
It’s generic, has a good list of communities, and the mods are legends with updates and transparency.
Thanks for the explanation. Very helpful and insightful.
I don’t understand, you can pretty much install any app store on android.
Am I missing something?
True. People here already been using WhatsApp for more than a decade. They have all their contacts and groups set up. You can’t just ask everyone to adopt a new standard.
True. This would be an issue for anyone with a custom ROM. Although Signal is there as an option as well.
Google Messages with RCS has the ability to become a new standard but there are two issues:
I think it’s too late. People already use app with their groups all set. Might be difficult to shift people to yet another platform.
Google beautifully has the reputation of killing off whatever doesn’t work. How future proof is this messages app now? Just look at the list of previous chatting apps by Google.
Updates have been getting better though it depends on the company.
Samsung and Google are leading the updates, but a lot of companies would sell you a phone with two years of updates (Asus for example).
There are also worse brands that barely support their phones.
Used to envy apple users with their updates. It’s getting better now.
Shitty icons, unnecessary quick panel change, and obligatory AI.
