Xmanager doesn’t compile the apk. I downloads the same files you have on telegram.
The main advantage of it over manually downloading the files is somewhat easier usage and update notifications.
I like computers.
Also the banner is taken from here.

Unless you completely power off the radio you will still receive calls and messages. Some custom roms come with this option, but I don’t know if it’s possible to automate.
If you want to save more power, then enabling airplane mode and then turning wifi and / or bluetooth (depending on your needs) back on should save more power.
I think the situation here is similar to Telegram. Russian connections, but not in a impactful way. I use both without worries, but if this doesn’t suit somebody, there are alternatives.
I think it’s a different story with the original seasons. The intended version was 4 seasons, but Fox being Fox aired the episodes out of order, ending whenever they wanted and that’s how 5 seasons came to be.
One might try to call it artistic privilege, but I don’t think it holds when you’re responsible only for distribution and not making.
I use MediaTracker which takes information form imdb and tmdb and it labels it as following:
Plex and Jellyfin are good and all, but you know what’s better?
UPNP - simple, efficient, effective. I recommend Gerbera.
Custom roms still offer this. Additionally you can even enable Pulse (audio visualiser) if you like.
Syncthing plays nicely with obsidian if you ever have to synchronise the vault between multiple devices.
Not so much about testing, but one time I really needed to get to my backups I lost password to the repository (I’m using restic). Luckily a copy of it was stored in bitwarden, but until I remembered it, were perhaps one of the worst moments.
Needless to say, please test backups and store secrets in more then one place.
It’s the first time I hear about resticprofile and it looks nice. So far I’ve been using crestic for configuration files. Do you know how they compare?
I daily drive a custom ROM with (sandboxed) gapps (currently crdroid, but also spark os, cherish os, voltage and others). I also have a tablet (old galaxy tab A) running lineage without gapps, which I use for reading ebooks.
I can’t imagine returning to stock roms. The inconsistencies, various hacks, apps not respecting your settings and privacy invading software. What a nightmare!
I think getting it submitted to fdroid would be a lengthy process. As an alternative IzzyOnDroid repository could be considered.
In the 3.x era, fully replacing the windows shell was easy and there were lots of options.
That’s such a good occasion to share a video I found recently, here: https://youtu.be/iD7AezjG5YE
Sort of. Already mentioned classicshell allows for some customisation. Things like FancyWM introduce window tiling to the os, but none of it is comparable to what android launchers can do.
Also an obligatory linux mention. If you do not depend on certain, windows only, applications, Linux provides much more customisation. Different desktop environments can be though as something analogous to android launchers.
That’s one thing. Also adding sources manually. It won’t the the issue when someone is there to help, but websites disappear and somebody has to update those lists.
I had to convert to gif as lemmy wouldn’t allow me to upload mp4. As a result video is slowed down a bit but there are seconds shown in the clock so it shouldn’t be hard to get an idea of the actual speed. The point is that it’s faster than it looks.
That’s one hell of a controversial opinion.
I personally prefer gestures. I find them quicker (you don’t have to move your fingers as much to do anything, especially back gesture) and more intuitive (like swiping on the navigation pill or whatever it’s called to quickly switch apps, much better than double clicking recents button). Gestures also integrate nicely with the rest of os (like swiping from backspace to erase whole words in gboard).
One thing I hate and I can’t understand how that’s not fixed in stock AOSP is opening left side menus (those hamburger ones) with gestures enabled. Half of the time instead of opening the menu it will just go back, even if sensitivity on left edge is set to minimum.
This is something that custom roms address nicely as most of the time setting sensitivity to minimum would actually disable gestures in this area (take note Google). If this is something that’s bugging anyone, you can disable gestures on left edge over adb (without root) with:
adb shell settings put secure back_gesture_inset_scale_left 0
or with:
su -c "settings put secure back_gesture_inset_scale_left 0"
if you have root access (for more info look here).
I’m not a fan of xiaomi (even though it’s my daily driver), but most of their phones fit your needs. In the past I used redmi note 4, note 9 pro and now note 10 pro and they’ve all been great.
Custom roms community really is something.
Exactly. In a “this is for the future” way.
One more reason to use a custom ROM. Death to the bloat!
Oh, so we’re playin Inception at a whole world scale. Nice.
