I felt the same about android flagships, now it barely matters which one you buy almost all of them surpassed basic needs and expectations years ago

 

Genuine question and just to clarify I'm talking about stockings rather than active wear or yoga pants

But I've just never really thought about it I guess..

I looked a little closer at the battery connectors and when pulling the battery out I must have yanked the little wires out of the clip just ever so slightly (I could see a little bit of them reflecting on one side) I carefully pushed them back in and avast! There is life again! Thank you kind stranger!

I think I might have broken something, even when I clip the battery back in I get nothing 😟

I removed the battery but now I can't get the fucker to turn on lol

 

I just discovered this and it works fantastically on any old / unused android device you might have lying around, I was shocked at how easy it was, all the instructions are there, once you have it running all you need to do is set your router DNS settings to your pihole IP address and presto! Ads and trackers are gone!

Try f-droid basic, it lets you update automatically

You should check out aurora store on f-droid if you haven't already, its basically an alternative front end for the play store, which means you can remove your google account from your phone (if you want to)

 
 

Now that a lot of the commotion has subsided I'm just curious to know how y'all are finding the Lemmy experience in general and whether you use it regularly like you did reddit?

followed this guide (not mine) and it's pretty great

Just a note: when downloading a host file do not use the one mentioned as it is discontinued, instead look up "1hosts" on github

Also check out libretube (f-droid) for YouTube, it's better than the actual YouTube app by miles!

It seems like its just for.memes in general with no specific ...rules but at times it also seems to revolve around LGBQT+ content, also what is with the constant mention of 'rule'?

I've even posted to it before with no dire consequences but I really had no idea what I was doing, thanks!

So here's the thing, every time I try to move away from Facebook messenger I run into the same problem, nobody else in my friends or family actually want to use a secure, private messenger app like signal or telegram, my wife, my parents, my in-laws, my friends they're ALL on Facebook and they will never take signal seriously enough to actually use it, it really bums me out that there are these far superior options but without anyone else using them they're pointless..

Anyway what apps do you use to stay in touch with people?
