Come on, you know what I meant, compare pre iOS 7 with whichever Android was at that time… You can see nowadays the release updates are switching and iOS is implementing more features (or features that it should have had since the beginning lol) and Android is closing down more (Google’s fault and no root ofc).


Sure, but I meant, how is it that we don’t have a native tool for this (like Automator) or at least a system app from Google (like Shortcuts app).


TIL Tasker even worked without root lol.

Also, why do we even need tasker to do that? iOS allows you to do that with its Shortcuts app lol, this is a weird moment when Android is becoming more closed and iOS open (in system wide features).

Well, that is why I chuckle when people say there is no reason to root nowadays… Heck, not even banking apps will prevent me from rooting my phone, and my next android purchases are gonna be based in whether it can be rooted or not.



while still being able to use your own DNS/wireguard VPN/proxy…

Wait, I thought the “downside” of this app was that it used your VPN connection, compared to NextDNS or the built in DNS feature of Android.

I also use AdAway rooted version and not really looking into changing it, but if you could clarify about this I could happily see it as an alternative :)


I guess the recommendation of turning off the Bluetooth to save battery, or the sarcastic comment that usually says “bro, just turn off the phone if you care too much about the battery” are gonna be obsolete now aren’t they?




But whatsapp is still a better second messenger than telegram.

You didn’t mean that.


Don’t be too sad, this is open source after all.


I’ll never get why, in a privacy community that doesn’t come up without asking.


What kind of issues, and what ROM?


You may prefer to skip Mozilla entirely and self host your own Firefox Sync: https://github.com/mozilla-services/syncstorage-rs

Bruh, I didn’t know about this, I swear we can self host almost anything, can we self host the Internet?


Yeah, seems like it is only for MK for Wii, as it shows in the always decent active users count, but it supports many games, and I use it mainly for Metroid Prime Hunters and Jump Ultimate Stars.


I use it because some of my favorite games for the Nintendo DS that has Wiimmfi support use it ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Too hard to regrow the, already tiny user base in those cases.


Can’t you specify this with the normal app?

I would never use it in battery mode, only plugged in, that is how I have my Swiftbackup, Pocket Casts and Feeder downloads schedule.



I got late to the party, I still use the Google Play Store, but I find some neat apps with Fdroid from time to time, and I was like “hey this isn’t that bad” I feel weird to have spend so much time looking for individual APK files ngl.



That long? Make your bets folks!


This one looks cool, but I am so used to having a sync service that I can’t enjoy it fully :/


Where would I be without Tailscale as a CGNAT user? I think I would have taken the path of evil.


This has me worried as a non Steam Deck user (but a potential one) is the Deck going to keep up with newer AAA games? Or it will need constant revisions/updates?


Huh, dude, I am forced to use WhatsApp because it is the number 1 app here where I live, nobody even used SMS, which I actually didn’t believe was a thing until another lemming pointed it out lol.

WhatsApp has always been behind other options such as Telegram, for example their WhatsApp web implementation is a huge joke compared to Telegram, or the way it stores the data too.


That shitty app sucked even before Meta acquired it 🤡


Me too, I’m mostly interested to see how the iMessage implementation works with Android…

The only person I would message with this would be my girlfriend… And even with the option on hand we are pretty comfortable using Telegram, so it is more like a curiosity on my side.


I didn’t even know that Proton was Wine, until somewhere else pointed it out here on Lemmy… (granted, I am not a proton user, that’s why my lack of context was there, but I follow the Chinese retro handhelds community so that’s why I knew why Proton is awesome).
