not sure about stock android but if I set notifications to silent on CalyxOS it Doesnt make a sound when I Screenshot

It’s closer to Win8’s Metro and Win10s FluentUI more than Vista’s Aero but your point still stands. These are decade old design philosophies.

it’s an improvement but I’m still not happy about these huge ass buttons in the notification shade that could easily be half the size. Theres so much wasted space. I used to be able to access 6 quick tiles in the minimized shade. now its 4. Used to have 9-12 tiles on a full shade. now we have 8.

If you’re going to continue to make 6"+ phones, USE THE SCREEN SPACE FOR FUCKS SAKE

LGTM as long as it’s included in AOSP

i just switched off droidify because I learmed it uses an older method of updating your repos and doesnt support app archival. I’ll probably go back when they support those though

unless they’ve allowed the bootloader to be unlocked and relocked with a custom OS, I do not care.

simply use 7gb to install google®️ drive™️ and purchase a Google®️ One™️ subscription ($24.99/mo) for 512GB of storage*

Ive got mine set to 8, so it usually does it while I’m asleeo

Idk why but on my phone it just keeps redirecting me to https://maps.apple.com/frame after it loads, infinitely. Thats so odd that it works for you on the same browser with the same config and not for me. I wonder if my Pi-Hole has something different making it happen

I’ll be honest at first I thought this would’ve been a good thing so I can uninstall GMaps for when I need to get somewhere on a time constraint (I mainly use Organic Maps), and it was a + that it was only a website for me, but I can’t get the website to actually load. It keeps refreshing and not loading, on both IronFox (Firefox fork) and Chromium 😭

Post a neofetch from your 3DS or you’ve failed the test

Its just the G32 G42 and G52 I believe, and then the Fairphone 4 and 5. Like I said though its not helpful unless youre on a GSM carrier, because of course the US has to be different and have a 2nd standard that only some phones work with. (if you can’t tell I’m on a CDMA carrier and am stuck with pixels unless I move to a place where GSM carriers have more coverage)

This is true. Can’t run Graphene or Calyx on anything else (unless you want to import a Fairphone Or Moto for Calyx, but EVEN THEN they only work on GSM carriers.)

Yeah I heard about this. Its, really unfortunate and part of the reason I was lashing out so bad. If you follow the comment chain we work it out.

I didn’t mean to try and invalidate how people consume their media, I’m just frustrated with the fact that there is no longer an option to even buy a smaller phone. When you I had originally responded to you with the TV comment, it wasn’t about invalidating people who do watch tv on a phone. It was about the fact the ideal way to do it is on a tv, with the assumption that it was implied you could also watch stuff on a smaller phone. IMHO, a 6.5" screen for viewing is not that much different from a 5" screen, but it makes a world of difference for holding and using it. I can’t type on my phone without using two hands currently, its constantly pulling on my pants, and if I’m not wearing a belt (say, sweatpants or shorts) I’m constantly pulling my pants back up, and I have a few pairs of pants where the thing falls out of my pocket and in between the car door while im closing it because of how big it is. I hate it and I want a smaller one. I apologize for any of it being a personal attack, but I still feel like every single phone being 6"+er is frustrating for people like me, and I know for a fact I’m not the only person with these problems.

i’m not moving the goalpost, I’m standing by what I’m saying. I dont need my brain to be constantly stimulated by media to function in day to day life.

Youre welcome!!

Jackass I’m not watching movies and TV at Dr appts and at work. I make food in the kitchen and I have a TV in my bedroom like an adult.

Good lord it reminds me of the “this movie boring aah” where the dude is watching fucking family guy om his phone in the movie theater.

Edit: this is what you sound like.

Why do people buy TVs? I feel like people forgot we used to have deligated tools. I can open a can with my pocket knife, but it’s not the ideal way to do it… ugh

why did 3 happen because I never stopped buying them. I had a Pixel 4a that I used until it almost exploded. I’m on a 6a now and this thing is uncomfortable. I miss typing with one hand.
