Gmail should be one of the first apps you uninstall with the universal android debloatter.

That’s an actual great point, noted.

The title specifies that it’s the apps that are open source.

Turns out that is your experience, and it cannot be extrapolated to the rest of the world.

In fact, my experience is actually opposite. Everytime I go back to Windows to do some task… Wi-Fi has trouble finding my access point, and when it finally connects (sometimes after having to reboot) the connection is simply not as strong. Oh, and some bullsh*t software got reinstalled and it even set itself up as launching-at-start-up, after I had to almost hack the OS to allow me to do that.

So, do I extrapolate to the rest of the world?

That’s the thing, for me, it’s too much money every month for a one-time setup and maybe 15 minutes maintenance every 3 months. But if you feel it’s still worth it, go for it.

I understand. But that should make you automatically realise that you should give that old fat/broken laptop a chance to be plugged into your TV. Put a 10 $ remote mini keyboard there and no one will touch the TV interface again.

I can understand if you want to pay. But don’t say it’s hard to block ads when all you need is uBlock origin installed… And that’s it. It’s literally a 15 seconds job for the rest of the life of your browser.

Mine sure has it enabled. Been using RCS for years. Will lookup my brother’s, but I thought we were already past that phase

I tried to RCS with my brother today (iPhone user). I told him to set it up properly and… It didn’t work. SMS are still sent.

They won’t. They’ll just substitute them. The idea is trying to force every company do the same thing, as making people work locally makes them more dependent on their local company and less likely to jump to a better job.

Then you can lower salaries (not rise them) and destroy benefits. Also you can enforce dress codes to make it look like a dictatorship country like North Korea.

Is that American hand writing? It reminds me so much of James Hetfield’s, and basically no one writes like that in my country.

I’m sorry but I won’t bother switching to a ultra-minor browser for having to toggle something in the settings once every 2 years after 500 articles pop up about it.

The only broken thing is very specific stuff like Slack calls. In fact, it’s the only broken thing I’ve seen in a long while. Also fuck Slack.

I swear this question comes up everyday in Lemmy 😅.

Firefox, I just use Firefox because, it works, it has enough privacy measures, and everyone is looking at the codebase, something that cannot be said about most (if not all) forks.

Telegram client is the only thing from them that’s open, so I would stick to that as it’s where most eyes are looking.

In my experience (not in Android apps but in Arch Linux updates) parallel downloads are almost always waaay faster. Magnitudes faster. Using multiple cores? Is it the bottleneck actually enforced by the server? I don’t know, I just know it works.

And if they did it, it’s because it works on Android too.

¿Por qué solo tres?

Custom third-party clients. It’s a mess.

AI doesn’t do feelings

How can I have a serious conversation with these annoying answers? Come on, you know what I am talking about. Even an AI chatbot would know what I mean.

Any AI chatbot, even “general purpose” ones will read your code and will return a description of what it does if you ask it.

And particularly AI would be great at catching “useless”, “weird” or unexplainable code in a repository. Maybe not with the current levels of context. But that’s what I want to know, if these tools (or anything similar) exist yet.

Thank you.
