You can’t have information dense and minimalist at the same time.

New feature isn’t good.

Agreed

Stop using old features

What?

The e in eSIM standa for embedded, not electronic. You need to embed the SIM onto the SoC.

Mostly FOSS enthusiasts who see any move by Google that makes Android more “closed source” as negative.

I think every single wear might be a little overkill. I clean mine maybe once a week and barely see any earwax/gunk buildup.

That effort is probably better spent on just cleaning your ears when you shower everyday.

Was he using another debrid service? Because from what I understand you can only stream if the file is cached by the service, otherwise torrentio just gives you the torrent. Without a VPN it makes sense why he got DMCA’d

Yep this is what I’ve done. Seems to work so far.

What add-ons do you recommend?

Ah fair enough. Yeah moving here from a country where unlimited data was around $3 a month was a shock. That said I get 40 GB for $50 a month with Koodo so I’ve never even come close to reaching my limit.

Nobody’s forcing anyone to opt-in to the beta. If you want new features before the company is ready to release it on a stable channel, you pay for it in a buggier experience. That’s literally what a beta means.

I usually keep data turned off on my phone (because Canada)

What does this mean? I’m in Canada and I’ve got data turned on virtually the entire time

It’s pretty much identical to the Apple Find My network, which means you get tracking for phones, trackers, and headphones (support has been confirmed by Google, JBL, Beats, and Sony).

There’s really no real reason to stay loyal to a brand when you’re using Android. If you like a particular OEM’s UI or a feature they provide, good for you! If not, then there’s literally no reason not to switch brands. It’s not like your apps won’t work or your contacts won’t move over.

For a legitimate question you sure do keep countering answers with “I don’t do it so why do you?”

As for why people use a dedicated app? Convenience. All my podcast are in one place, they get updated automatically, and if I want it they get downloaded to storage automatically too so I can listen to them offline.

If someone tells me about a new podcast I might like, I can search for it and be listening to it within seconds, rather than having to download it from a website. Plus if I’m using Google Podcasts, playback is synced across devices so I can pick up on my phone where I left off on my computer.

Besides there’s a ton of open source podcast apps and most don’t have ads or tracking.
