I wish his solution worked.

Javascript was a mistake.

Wait, is that a problem with usenet?

Just use deGoogled Chrome. Using Firefox is just a pain and the project has no future, the suits will just extract everything they can from it until there is nothing left. I hope Ladybird changes things.

I haven’t seen a single other budget or midrange phone with this problem.

Honestly at this rate my next phone will be a feature phone. There is a lot I love about my Poco X7 Pro, but also a lot that I do not. And a lot of things seem to be getting worse.

Doing that becomes harder and harder as time goes by. When I was shopping for a new Android phone I couldn’t find one that was recent enough and also had custom rom support of any kind. I know there are smartphones specifically built to be friendly towards custom roms and Linux but those are only available in Europe and North America.

Shizuku and Canta hands down, debloating my phone greatly increased my battery life.

Librera is a pretty good ebook reader.

KISS Launcher is the best launcher bar none.

Of course KeePassDX is a great password manager.

ThumbKey is the best software keyboard I’ve ever used, nothing else even comes close.

There is a platformer called Obsolete in Play Store. I only played a little of it at the moment but so far it’s pretty good.

Streets of Rage 4 has a mobile port. Also Retro City Rampage DX.

Even if it could it wouldn’t matter, what makes art so valuable is the amount of work put into it. It’s the highest effort form of communication you can imagine, it can express so much. An LLM chat bot could never do that.

That’s also a very good use case, but KISS is just the perfect launcher for me. I can get to litteraly anything just by typing it’s name. Apps, contacts, settings, search results, a new tab, a new incognito tab, sometimes specific app functions. You can use it as a calculator too, it’s perfect. No amount of praise can do KISS justice in my opinion.

KISS Launcher.

KISS Launcher.

What’s it’s name?

I don’t use llms myself, but in the past when I’ve heard of Gemini it was in relation to a mess up. It gave the impression that Gemini is even worse than all of the others.

Reclassifying patents as anti-competitive behavior alone would fix so much in the market.

Isn’t Gemini really bad? I can’t recall ever hearing praise for it.

Firefox can’t even export bookmarks, so when Mull got deprecated I had to move my hundreds of bookmarks manually to Cromite. It sucks that people whose phones are still on Android 8 are stuck with that thing.

Using ThumbKey’s “english thumbkey words symbols” layout along with circular gestures for upper / lower case letters and numbers I can reliably score 60 words per minute on MonkeyType. I also don’t need to look down on the keyboard to type, so personally I love it.

With that said, if your free time is limited and you also type on a variety of languages, switching to ThumbKey may not be worth the effort since a lot of languages have their own layouts.

Personally I don’t see myself switching away from ThumbKey, but it’s kind of a vim vs nano situation. I think Traditional T9 will be the happy medium for most people in this case.
