8 hours agoIt is difficult to switch to custom roms when manufacturers like Samsung block bootloader unlocking or like Xiaomi make the process hard.

Right now, the most important specification is battery capacity. Some Smartphones are already available with batteries up to 7000 mAh.https://www.kimovil.com/en/where-to-buy-poco-f7

It is bad. It looks like less powerful that 888+ :L It even made by Samsung… which means it uses a worse manufacturing process than TSMC
If you want to run Android apps on Linux try Waydroid. It is probably one of the best option right now.
Samsung is a joke company. They block oem unlock from One ui 8. Samsung IMS isn’t working in custom roms (AOSP) because they have some close implementation of IMS.
You should look to other company for next phone.
Can’t you get WhatsApp to work in Waydroid?

Try browser extension. It redirects youtube videos to peertube when it detects the same video on both sites.
9·15 days agoVery good. I had hard to choose instance because many of them don’t show country of hosting.
There is still active development: https://espi.dev/posts/2025/07/plasma-bigscreen/
Wow I never heard about that :D
Thanks! I didn’t know about swipe-to-text. It is much faster than my very slow typing. I really don’t know why I wasn’t using swipe before. Look like it will need to go back to google keyborard from HeliBoard.
Wouldn’t it be better if phones could bypass the battery when plugged in
4·21 days agoIs self-hosting a YouTube front-end reliable? Public instances often don’t work, but maybe Google doesn’t block private ones?
There are browser extensions that automatically switch from YouTube to an alternative platform if video is available on both.
