I know one guy in one of our Telegram chats that simply loves their Android turtle emoji

The reason I switched from Gboard was because it autocorrected a capital “I” to a small “i”

Asus ZenPhone? Have you been living under a rock these past few months lol

Just wait until Google eventually kills it off lol

IIRC, that is literally just a skinned KDE Connect lol. Probably even just a name change. Never used Zorin, but this is what I remember either DistroTube or Chris Titus saying.

I’m currently reading Over Sea, Under Stone by Susan Cooper, which is the first book in the Dark is Rising sequence.

I first read this book years ago, and what has stuck me ever since was the vivid use of imagery by Cooper. I’ve also watched the movie, but it’s the book that has always stuck with me.

Back in the day, it was a really great way to find new apps. And by back in the day, I mean when it was still called the Android Market.

Its initial transition to Play Store in the ICS era also wasn’t too bad. It still kept a lot of the good things from Android Market. But since the launch of Lollipop, things have really deteriorated. It might not have really been the fault of Google, but there’s a lot more noise with subpar apps that crowd the store now. There’s also the incessant ads for sketchy apps featured prominently that leaves a bad aftertaste in your mouth.

Like you, I’ve probably spent like 30 minutes on the Play Store over the last 4 years probably. Every app I want today is either on F-Droid, or already pre-installed on my phone. Or they’re PWAs, and it’s easy to install them just by going to the website.

Was that typed from your Galaxy phone from Tapatalk?

I don’t have Android Auto in my car, but I’ve used it on my mates cars. It’s…nice, but I prefer something with physical buttons that provide tactile feedback.

Most of the Android Auto or Apple CarPlay units I’ve interacted with are pretty underpowered and the voice interface doesn’t even work like it’s meant to.

Finally! Being forced to use Google Voice on Android Auto has driven me crazy, I’ll be honest.
