Have you ever though about why millionaires suddenly start predicting stuff? Because they just made a multi million investment and they are looking for such trashy magazines to push their agenda.
So thanks, but no, I won't get hyped over some words.
So in your world, a completely locked down phone is better than a phone that you can easily open up again by flashing a ROM or replacing Gservices for MicroG with adb + Magisk?
Apple allows as much sideloading as google wants to next near.
Yes, you can install from .iPa files, but you still need to pay 100€ a year to be able to sign the IPA files, otherwise you cant run them. as much as with googles new policy you now need to pay 25€ + your full name to get a signature, to sign the Apks with
Aside from the 10 notifications I have 24/7 on silent because otherwise most of my Apps couldnt run (frickin google making it so you need to use their system for an app to run in the background) I only get notifications if someone calls me, or texts me via telegram, or if I need to install Updates from Obtainium or Fdroid
Lemmy? No notifications. E1547? No. Antennapod? Kinda, I set it on auto download so I have something to listen to. Newpipe also only refreshes when I want it to, I don't need to have the „Pyro raging at Inflation joke” fed to me every day.
Im not really one to think twice before doing something. My Homelab is literally „dont move, break things”, im lazy as fuck, I even left my TrueNAS mirrored pool as degraded for a week now because I can't bother to read the manpages for zfs and read why my newly bought drives are getting checksum errors, and I backup anyway to Hetzner and Synology anyway. I broke at least 3 opensuse PCs trying to update without checking my available space first, and didn't bother to switch to leap afterwards (since they can go with less updates, they're just Netflix and IPTV clients). My record is 4 times in a row. Luckily fedora Atomic removed my competence from the equation. And I won't even mention the many times I sloppily migrated my PCs from Ubuntu, Opensuse, to Nobara because I was anti Atomic distros, to arch, opensuse again, arch, artix, Gentoo, and now back to Bazzite.
But to be honest, that was when I was between 13-16, but now a month later I already feel the responsibility in me. (Except that Zfs thing, I got those drives for my birthday)
It is a forum Website. The same way every shooter game is not a doom clone and every car is not a Ford clone.
What is the user count vs reddit?
relevancy. As long as you find people to talk with, that is irrelevant.
Is it worth it sticking around?
You decide.
however, here my home page is empty and I probably have to subscribe to pages in order to see anything there.
I would count it as a positive, that Lemmy is not shoving me posts up my ass that I may or may not even want to see, just so I create more content/Data for advertisers. If I want to eat, I go to a community and eat the things I want. I don't want to be force fed like a pig.
Or even if I want non personalized stuff, I just go to the all tab.
Shh, dont tell him lobotomies became mandatory on birth since Gen Z, and there are only few who still know how this magical phone they are using every day works, let alone know what an IP address is
