    most of what I posted describe actual well known problems with Android. You would know that if you used Android.

    Damn, you’re right, maybe I should do some reading on these “well known problems” that I haven’t once experienced in my three years of using android. Sounds pretty bad /s

    ^ Edgy sarcasm aside, everything you said really is news to me. Is there really that much difference between different android ROMs? I’m running /e/-os on my phone (lineageos fork), and I don’t think I’ve ever had issues with notifications or this “Doze” thing. I can’t say for lemmy app / youtube music tho, I don’t use those. Though I can relate a little bit to the third-party launcher thing – I have MLauncher, and a recent update just completely crippled the search functionality for no reason.

    TBH cable transfer on android can be pretty shit as well. Like, if you luck out with the MTP implementation on both your phone and your computer, then it Just Works ™. But in many cases (like mine) it’s a buggy mess. I used to have a script that would sync music from my laptop to my phone with rsync, and I would have to run it like three times to actually transfer everything, because each time like 10% of the files would just… not make it across the cable lol. Now I just do it over WIFI. I really wish we could go back to the old days when plugging in your phone would just expose the microsd card as a block storage device.

    Hey, do you mind telling me where I can sign up for the apple shilling program? What are the rates like? Approximately how many shill posts do you make a day? Is it necessary to make lots of different alt accounts, or can I just shill from my main?








  • Unpopular opinion: dead internet is not only real, but GOOD. Once robots get good enough to autonomously sign up for websites and make convincing posts, this will force us humans to go actually outside, make friends, form deep social relationship, and build lasting, resilient communities. Meanwhile on the internet, websites that are willing to allow AI content for money will eventually die out due to lack of actual users. The only remaining websites will be run by individuals and organizations with non-profit motives, and a strict human-only policy with verification based on word-of-mouth / invite system.

    What do you mean by “handles multiple monitors poorly”? Is it something to do with scaling? The only issue I’ve encountered under X11 related to multihead is the inability to set different subpixel geometries for different monitors, but iirc wayland doesn’t let you do that either? Just curious what your usecase is

    At first I though this was just a regular shitpost but then I saw the screen tear edit lol

    On a more serious note, is there a way to actually fix screen tearing under x11? I’ve always thought a compositing manager like xcompmgr would do it, but for me it only makes it worse?
