not called Brad but rather a lad, from Bradford in the UK.

Enjoys breaking apps, escooters, spam rings and sometimes bones, but not my own. That sucks.

  • Hell yes.

    I ain’t a lover of that kinda app (aesthetics plz) and why I stick with Boost being a RiF user but having lots of alternatives is one of the many reasons we all kicked off originally over in r/Android about the API bollocks Mr Greedy Piggy Spez brought in. That, and shitting on the disabled/spam whackers/translators you name it. Pissed us off enough we made this instance.

    Does that official reddit app have decent Accessibility features yet, or was Spez yet again talking out of his pooper?

    Good work btw, and obligatory fuck spez ;)














  • I usually limit it to 80% during the summer, but because I work outside and through the night too my battery can reach very low temperature levels which absolutely hammers my battery life so I let it charge to 100% / or just to warm it up via a small powerbank on my FLT sometimes during the winter months.

    As for longevity? I usually go through a phone every year or two so I don’t see the wear of of what others are saying in here using their phone for over two years (that’s my max), but I feel the 20/80% guideline is a fair one to go by since the reported 100% isn’t fully accurate anyway.



  • I’ve also been using Linux for a similar amount of time, and it’s only at work now I have to use Windows.

    And as for home users using Linux? I have a few family members quite happy with Ubuntu / Firefox since all they need is a browser and VLC for their “PC”, so I don’t know where you got that “it’ll never get there” metric from.

    Alright they don’t have a clue how Jellyfin works on that box, but they sure do appreciate and use it a lot these days now they’ve got used to it / dumping Netflix.
