Earlier rumors speculated that Apple would cripple it via software, either restricting charging speed, data transfer, or both.

A few more than that if you count the S versions.

I’m certain an all-out legislative war would be waged against TOR if it were to become popularized for most of those reasons, under the more convenient guise of “criminals and children!”

I guess we’ll have to see what happens after that right wing Twitter account posted CSAM, Twitter suspended the account, then Elon said they removed the posts and reinstated the account 🤷🏽‍♂️

Yeah, I know, but it just seemed weird to include \ when / seems to be more widely used? Or maybe it’s just me lol.

Okay, makes sense. Maybe they’ll reintroduce it with RCS once it’s more widely adopted.

I’m the same way regarding quirks. I’ve been using Gboard and for a while bounced between that and Samsung Keyboard. Gboard has the best overall usability for me but a couple things I’m not a fan of: Gboard deleting clipboard history (only from Gboard as it’s still available elsewhere), and including \ as a long press symbol rather than /,where you have to tsp the symbols key and then tap /.

Samsung Keyboard has a few quirks as well, but the biggest was predictive text isn’t as good as Gboard. But I like the customization of it. But I can’t see the symbols on the keys as well as I can on Gboard.

I was a fan of Chroma Keyboard years ago because I liked that it would change color based on the app.

I never looked into why the removed it. Is SMS a securi risk? Maybe they’ll bring it back with RCS.

Samsung S23 Ultra. Been using Samsung phones the past few years, since the S10 Ultra, and I’ve enjoyed using them. One UI isn’t the bloated garbage it used to be, and Samsung has added some nice tweaks and features. Also, the Good Lock tweaks are fantastic and I’m surprised some just aren’t baked into One UI. Battery life has been stellar too.

The weight is probably the thing I don’t like most. Makes a difficult to use one-handed sometimes.

What kind of apps are you all using that aren’t on Google Play or Fdroid?

Only $4.5 million? That amount seems kind of low if the data they have is as valuable as they say.
