you could set up email accounts as forwarders to a single account. And on the email client add these accounts as aliases so you can reply with them. So you get a single unified view of emails as well as ability to reply with the one you want.

thanks! checking it out

Just the other day I was thinking if i could run a mini games server on a raspberry pi. All the flash games growing up in a local device would be pretty darn awesome for the kids. would this help accomplish that?

This is why opensource developers get burnt out. If you don’t like it, fork it. Stop shoehorning what you want on other people’s project, especially for petty things like this.

that doesn’t stop them from uploading things in the background.

I just want to turn off Stories.

is Telegram FOSS on fdroid restrictive?

It works fine for where I am but using a privacy friendly alternative is going to come with downsides, as it depends heavily on crowd sourced data.

Searching sucks big time for me too, as locations are not written in english here, you have to assume what the english transliteration might be. I just start with short close matches, and that usually works out after a little bit of digging. Google maps usually gives out most searched locations right away and often that’s you’re looking after.

We can only hope It will get better as more people start using it

• Significant battery life improvements

• Granular Internet Acess Control (Give users option to prohibit apps from connecting to data or Wi-Fi)

• Something native like KDE Connect or Your Phone from Microsoft

• Something like Samsung Dex

• Unlimited Paypal money generator

There are so many things Google could do.

This is great news. usernames next, lets goooo

They are going to announce Youtube Music Messenger app in the next I/O, aren’t they? to add to their ever growing list of messenger portfolio.

Best way to use an Android is to stay as far away as you can from Google products or at least minimize it.

Protonmail, Organic Maps/Magic Earth, Signal, Firefox, Spotify, Newpipe, AntennaPod and so on.

dudes a redditor. getting enraged is a default setting.

finding solutions? nope, post more rage… that’ll fix it

what about this? https://kbin.social/m/android@lemdro.id/t/467656/To-improve-security-Google-s-making-it-slightly-harder-to-contribute#entry-comment-2442599

Google is not making Android for users, but itself as its advertising platform. Ever wonder why custom ROMs and even other manufacturers have a permission to block internet access for specific apps in their Android forks but Google does not? hmm… Alright

Google isn’t looking out for anyone but itself. These kind of restrictions and excuses are exactly what Apple calls “security”.

Just off the top of my head, Android allows multiple browser engines to work on it, allowing firefox to use extensions. Android can torrent, while you can’t on stock iOS without hacks. Firefox with extensions on Android is god send if you’re a power user.

For someone who claims to be a power user, it’s really showing… And don’t forget open source ecosystem is much much much bigger on Android.

Before that, it was hangouts and regular people didn’t know about it.

This is their biggest problem, They themselves fragment their user base. We were on hangouts, you could even get your google voice calls on it, we didnt’ switch to allo or duo, till they announced they were retiring hangouts. And now all three are gone.

We stay away from Google now.

it’s free until oracle decides to shut it down without warnings. Then everything goes poof

what’s with that? without mentioning why they suck, that’s just the ol’ “trust me, bro”

how were they ahead of Samsung and other manufacturers exactly? genuinely curious.

Doesn’t KDE Connect do the same and more?
