Most of these browsers use the enterprise policy of chromium.

For a year, but it will be extremely difficult for them to maintain mv2 after jun 2025.

You can add a screenshot button to the top bar.

People aren’t buying as many phones as they used to, and the Chinese are making cheaper foldables now.

It’s not a google thing specifically to be honest. Tapping into phones happened way before android was a thing.

Smartphones, both android and iOS, just make it easier for them to tap.

The playstore is just flooded with garbage apps.

Once my apps are installed, the play store is only there for updates. Searching for new apps on the store is just rubbish.

Proton is great but I do feel wary from putting all my eggs in one basket again.

I’m not sure but does unobtanium work for you?

I used both Touchwiz and One UI. Touchwiz came with a lot of bells and whistles, wasn’t optimised, and generally ran on old phones that had limited power compared to phones nowadays.

Current One UI phones feel snappy to be honest. Also, compared to pixel phones these days, pixel phones to be less customisable out of the box with a lot of big bulky widgets, and UI wasted space. I prefer Samsung’s implementation on android where it follows a more traditional UX.

That’s what they all say. But a lot of these so called AI features require power more than what a phone has. Offloading to a server is sometimes a must.

Sync is good, but I’m not sure if it’s discontinued. If it is, that would be a shame.

This app alone (along with boost) helped seamlessly shift a lot of user to lemmy.

Graphene os is an option to use. But keep in mind that it only works on pixel phones.

Basically they don’t want you to turn your phone into a mobile router.

Definitely Syncthing.

Great app to sync my phone with my laptop.

I am unsure of this is needed. Compared to many podcast apps, antennapod is a core podcast app without many unneeded bells and whistles.

Not entirely sure what efficiencies are gained here. Might have been better if focus was given to the original project instead.

Check the look and feel settings. It’s there you just have to toggle it.

Was about to say the same thing. You can just do a quick search and find it all.

I don’t think it’s available on Jerboa.

I use Voyager and it has this feature.

An option is to use the secure folder option if your phone supports it.
