That’s not run down, that’s a warehouse. Is it falling apart? Is the flooring worn? Are the walls cracking? Ceilings leaking? That’s what run down means, not whatever your weird complaint is about the decor and color scheme is.

Elden Ring. Been on a souls like kick, so decided to do another playthrough. Haven’t played in over a year I don’t think so it’s time!

Thanks, I’m downloading it now!

Newsblur right now. I don’t want ads, and I like the f-droid disabled the intrusive options from the playstore.

Any other reader recs? Not married to it by any means, I like it well enough. I don’t like that I can’t browse by folder or by everything without a premium subscription though. $99/year is extreme for my uses, wish there was a more palatable option for intermediate users. Still, it’s easy enough to jump between topics.

Return all that shit, sell your keyboard, and buy one with USB instead.

💁🏻‍♂️

Solid attempt, but you’ve already demonstrated that you have no idea how to properly stuff a box.

Whoever packaged these is an idiot.

Yes I used AdAway and AdGuard exclusively on my phone. I use ublock for everything on my desktop, and will until it stops being effective. I never see ads on desktop of any sort so it’s still chugging like a champ but to my knowledge they don’t make an OS level blocker for Android.

AdAway is available on f-droid, it’s not in the app store as far as I know.

I do hate to say it but I haven’t found any software level ad blocker that was as good as AdGuard. I’ve been using AdAway and it does an okay job but only like 80% as effective if say. Most others I tried were shit.

AdGuard was my ad blocker of choice on Android for years, but man did they fall off a cliff recently. I used them when you could purchase a forever license (which I don’t even think is an option anymore?), and it was great. All ads would be blocked basically everywhere, whenever they’d sneak through it just meant there was a filter that was out of date and needed to be updated.

Then about a year ago, the shenanigans started. Non-stop emails like OP is complaining about but also - their service BROKE whenever my phone would switch from data to wifi or vice versa. Like, any time it switched network types, just no internet would work at all. I’d have to force quit AdGuard and suddenly everything was fine. The timing happened when android updated from 12 to 13, so I figured it was something to do with that and emailed customer service. I got a notice that said something like “due to high ticket volume, it may be SEVERAL WEEKS before we get to your ticket or acknowledge it is being worked on, thank you for your patience.” So they’re spamming your inbox non-stop trying to click farm, but they have nobody actually working on the product. I never heard anything ever again (still haven’t…account is still active, email is still the same). I tried reaching out 3 or 4 more times but I’ve never received a response.

So…yeah fuck em I guess.

7 pro is my favorite phone ove ever owned, finally unseating the v30 which was criminally underrated at the time. I wish there was something better that wasn’t made by Google, but I have always been disappointed with my Samsung devices (Galaxy Note OG, Galaxy s7edge, S9). I felt trapped by them and they always had SO MUCH BLOAT. The s7 was the best of the bunch. I’ve had about as many pixels (2pro, 3pro, 6, 7 pro). They’ve all gotten better with each iteration, but I saw no reason to even consider a pixel 4 or 5. 6 was a huge step up but had some build quality issues. Overall I liked the design choices. I would still have my six but I was having a battery issue that couldn’t be fixed so they let me trade it in and shaved $100 off the 7pro for me in lieu of doing an RMA that late into the life cycle. 7 pro is excellent. I won’t be getting a new phone until this one is dead.

I meant specifically voyager and infinity, I’m way too turned off by Syncs tracking and ad filled cash grab antica. Hard pass.

I’m just counting the days until Boost for Lemmy releases but I feel you. The UI of infinity is very nice, and the feature customization is solid. I’ve been comparing all new apps to connect since I found it, and it’s still the one I keep coming back to. It has less polish but it checks all the feature boxes for me! Infinity is the only other app I’ve added to my home screen though, I could see it worming it’s way in.

Damn voyager, sync, infinity all within like 24 hours of each other!

Never heard of voyager previously but I’ll give it a shot! Liking infinity a lot too. Both your apps should copy connects feature of blocking users and instances right from the post. It’s super handy, especially when you realize someone is spamming, just give them the ol block and forget about it.

Been there. Happened to me in grad school but I woke up to a bat on my leg. Thing with bats ks you can’t tell if they bit you because their teeth leave little baby pinpricks that look like damn near everything else that bites, including mosquitoes.

I got a bill for $13,000. Basically 1000 for every shot to the ass they gave me. I had to pay it from my student loans. Yay America.

Can you not change your all icons on iPhone to anything you want like you can on Android? That fuckin sucks fam.

Reddit Premium costs $5.99 per month or $49.99 per year. However, for users subscribing through the iOS app, the subscription is more expensive – $6.99 per month or $59.99 per year.

LMAO they killed third party apps to force you to use their garbage app, then charge extra for something if you buy it in said garbage app. What in the actual fuck.

Keepass2 as well. Probably can’t go wrong with either one!

Why? There are already like three large steam deck communities on bigger instances?

I’ve never heard of O launcher, looks like a similar concept to Niagara (which is what I’ve used for a few years now). I love the simplified interface and cleaner look of both!
