No. I daily a Galaxy S23. I really like it except for all of Samsungs preinstalled apps that can’t be deleted.

A couple months back, I bought a refurbished OnePlus 6T (2018) to mess around with Linux and de-Googled Android, and guess what, my phone which is 5 years newer feels virtually no different. It does have a better camera, granted, but personally that doesn’t effect me as I do any serious photography with a proper camera anyway (also, I have to acknowledge that the 6T is slower as it’s not really a flagship phone like the S23, but the 6T feels comparable quality and performance wise to some mid range 2024 phones I’ve used).

Bottom line, unless we see more Apple M-style chipsets in phones, imo, we’re at a plateau. You could get a $200 5 year old phone and be fine.

Fyi you can add as many as you want to your favourites. And even without that, I found scrolling through with the alphabetical sidebar to be super fast. Definitely not for everyone tho

All I want on this Earth is a FOSS alternative to Niagara launcher. I love a simple icon/list launcher but Niagaras permission requirements are unsettling. Kvaesitso is great, and easily the most polished FOSS launcher I’ve used, but just doesn’t quite hit that mark for me. The closest I’ve found is Plasma Mobile, but I don’t feel like setting up halium just for a launcher.

Succumb to your temptations… skip dual booting and vms… nuke your Windows partition with Gentoo… you know you want to

Can climb a screen door like nobodys business

I had a cat who among many other health issues had no teeth. The way they extract them turns the gum hard and gives it somewhat of an edge after some time . Obviously not as hard or sharp as a tooth, but enough to eat dry food without a problem.

My sister adopted two inbred cats a while back. Two of the sweetest, dumbest things I’ve ever met. One of them, Tony (who we called the sewer monster, among, many, many other names), was stunted, so even at a few years old was no bigger than my current 4 month old kitten. Everything was stunted except for his teeth though, which seemed to be full sized. So he always had these vampire fangs hanging out of his mouth. He had to get them all removed too, which just made him look even weirder. Poor little freak of nature passed last year, miss his gummy little face lol

Kind of what I was thinking. She’s seen it all so she just loves life to the fullest.

Hey, it looks clean and functional. Just keep taking it one step at a time, and learn as much as you can.

She’s one of the sweetest cats I’ve ever had the pleasure of being around. Loves cuddles and never gets feisty (big fan of belly rubs). Funny because she was a wild cat originally.

I’m actually not sure what you’d call this colouration, I’ve always just called her ‘tabby’ or ‘kinda looks like a mackerel’ lol. And yes the older the more sappy you gotta be with them, this one is only 10 but she runs the place

Aww poor guy, gotta keep the tradition alive

Hopefully they come around, took these two a little while

It melts my heart lol, they’ve embraced being brudders

It’s very fitting, isn’t it? Technically his name is Mr. Bean but to me he’s just Bean, or Bean-o

I know thats a slim jim but what is it eating?

A handsome gentleman.
