Cris

I appreciate you mentioning that, thats how I’m considering using the 5 if it ends up as my phone replacement, but I have a hard time interpreting the info around wireless frequency bandwidths supported 🙃 I like pretty user interfaces, networking hurts my brain

I’d already seen this video and really enjoyed it

I mean liberal and conservative aren’t the same level of crappy in my eyes, but it is accurate to say corporate interests fund both of them. I think its reasonable to question how beholden both of them are to private interests

Gotcha. I missed that on their GitLab page, Thank you for pointing it out to me!

Futo Voice Input, and there are links in the post ☺️ Weirdly, it doesn’t seem to be on Fdroid (yet?), but you can install it as an APK from their website.

I’m using it to type this comment and I REALLY like it! But I will say it tries to do punctuation for me, and that drives me nuts.

(Video is about an open source voice to text, input method for Android, by the way.)

I mean, in fairness, this is a reviewer. I think the obsession with everything being different than it used to be is mostly a consumer, marketing and reviewer thing. Designers certainly have a role to play in the problem too, though.

Like 7zip, or winrar if I remember right. Sometimes when torrenting something or getting ROMs for emulation I’ve come across archive formats that have given me a problem when I try to uncompress them

Material files and/or anemo are perfect for me. Wish material files could handle more kinds of compressed archives though, I have to keep a different app for those tasks

While that is fair, messaging is a bit more complicated since you kinda have to use what other people in your life are using, and almost all of the people I talk to regularly have RCS but not other chat services I’d rather use. If RCS was available outside of google messages I’d gladly use a third party RCS app.

Like I said, its great to have an account option if you can still use it without your google account via the QR code, but loosing a feature unless you use a google account would be a bummer.

To be totally honest it seems weird to me that people would be so invested in debating my preference to not have to use a google account. I was just expressing my personal disappointment that a feature might go away unless I link an account- do I really need to justify that? Can’t I just be not-thrilled at something without people telling me I shouldn’t feel that way, or that I’m unjustified? 🤷

Regardless, I hope you have a good day :)

RCS is the only way to get read receipts with most folks I know, and google messages is the only way to use RCS presently

Yes, I know. I’d like to have access to that feature without having to use my google account

If the qr code options stays then its absolutely a positive, but RCS is already a (very frustratingly) closed ecosystem: locking certain features behind an account would just kinda suck, since google messages (or I think maybe Samsung messages also) is the only way to use RCS presently

Why are hario products so cute? Like its such a simple carafe but its pretty, and I want one. I don’t even drink pour over coffee- I have no need for an insulated carafe, all I drink right now is iced mocha from aldi lol 😅 but I want one

Yeah, of the google logo colored icons they’ve been switching to, thats a pretty fun design for the form of it

I agree with the other commenter, your question is more likely to be seen by enough people for you to get helpful answers if you post it separately (especially since lemmy is small and the coffee community is a very small subset of that) but thats a great question and I’d be curious to see folks’ recommendations if you do end up making a post about it :)

I’m not very coffee knowledgeable myself so I don’t know that I could give a helpful answer, but I wish you well with figuring it out!

Gross :(

That’s a damn fine URL. Thanks for sharing ❤️

Jesus fucking Christ, what a clusterfuck.

I can’t wait to not be able to spend google play store credits on renting movies anymore, just like there’s no way to spend google play store credits on purchasing albums or songs 🙃

Open board has an active fork here: https://github.com/Helium314/openboard

It has typing suggestions, backspace and space bar gestures, and now some custom theming. Though it does have a weird bug with backspace behavior in the jerboa app- so does the original openboard and aosp keyboard that openboard is based on.

Its not available on f-droid, though hopefully that’ll change in the future, but you can install the apk from the releases tab on github, or you can use obtainium to do that for you and it’ll let you know when there’s a new release
