Is there a non paywalled article somewhere? It asks for a sub the alternative asks for sign up and free trial.

The relevant part which was skipped unless you check the article

Plus some upgrade discounts, but both policies will only apply to customers in India.

I guess they used the auto suggest title feature where even the original article does not mention it. It’s mentioned in the subheading.

My older redmi has this issue where once a accessibility service was killed, it had to be disabled and enabled with the 10s mandatory wait because xiaomi. Miui also disables a bunch of APIs like 3rd party apps cannot change the wallpaper or the running services option present in most ROMs. This isn’t to ignore the aggressive app killing behavior of miui. Overall, my experience wasn’t great. Oneui is a much better and more stable experience, IMO.

Gestures were broken in android 11, but Google had released a fix, so they worked with 3rd party launchers. Xioami, for some reason, hasn’t applied that fix, so it’s still broken in miui. Other roms do not have this issue.

He must be talking about glance on samsung.

On the latest miui, you can not use gestures. Only button navigation

This isn’t the default for others. In OneUI, for example, you can use a combination of both, even with 3rd party launchers. One-handed mode+, for example, is awesome for gestures.

That €20 is for remove ads. Update the app and check the sidebar

Yes, it would work with all android devices. Otherwise, it would be pointless.

For some reason Youtube does the fastest and the most accurate voice recognition compared to the offline google Speech to Text. If they want to improve. Implement that in the Speech to Text app.

KeepassDX. The best password manager IMHO. It supports saving passwords, ability to open them with biometrics and is seamless and offline. I have been using it since 2019. Redreader for reddit provides the best offline reddit experience. Also using it since 2019. Personaldnsfilter, pretty much a fire and forget app. No setup required at all. These are some of my favorite apps and I have more.

Firefox could get litigated for ad fraud and these trusted 3rd parties could block firefox from accessing the sites. It won’t work.

Awesome. It’s been a while since I used termux. Good to know it’s still making progress.

Why go through so much hassel? It’s the default system app. Many samsung services and app’s are likely hardcoded to use it for stuff like that. It also excels in certain tasks like bulk image moving, deleting compared to Google photos. You won’t get hurt just by having it installed.

Thanks for the guide. It will make self-hosting more accessible.

It had been a while since i last remembered it, but i knew the reason was stupid. So, I had written reasons in italic. But, I guess that was up for open interpretation and that included questionable stuff.

You can create a feature request on their github. Maybe, the dev considers it one day

Play Store has strict rules for apps with user generated content. You have to provide ways to block and report users/content to stay on the play store. Glider didn’t provide a way to automatically report things by the user as hacker news doesn’t provide one. So, google suspended it. Here’s the github issue if you are interested: https://github.com/Mosc/Glider/issues/83

If you are using hacker news on mobile. I would recommend Glider. It’s a smooth hacker news client. Unfortunately, the dev had his app removed from the play store for reasons but you can access it from its github or fdroid.
