True. You can still use the apps for now as they haven't been updated yet.

App and OS updates.

When installing lineage, I usually go for simple mobile tools.

It has been acquired recently but you can still grab the tool or the fork called Fossify.

Should cover the apps required above.

Honestly, just take a basic normal car, and replace its engine with an electric one. No on screen entertainment, no cameras, no AI bull shit, no self driving. Just as basic as it gets.

Lenovo M10 3rd gen.

They are about £120, basic tablets with decent batteries, 10 inch screen, has a memory card slot.

Yeah. For me it's maps. It's difficult to replace with something open that includes live traffic information as well as details on shops.

It was a bad podcast app to begin with.

Google is doing their usual shit move of killing yet another product.

Google is doing an even shittier move of merging it with YouTube.

A company run by utter jokers.

I think this should be an option for users to configure the default behaviour.

If its an iPhone I would go with an iPhone plus for the screen size.

If its android, I would go with a Samsung A device. They're usually big in size, affordable, comes with a lot of accessibility features, good battery, and relatively easy to find accessories and spare parts.

The way they introduced and enrolled everyone to Threads. Who the fuck would use this tbh?

Just like bard really. Google tries to play catchup rushing out stuff that will eventually be cancelled.

One solution that comes to mind is Odoo

But you will have to check it and see if it has the things you look for.

This one can help.

I have a few old phones that still work great. Yes Google might pull their support on the phone because it has an old version of android but you can always use fdroid or side load apps.

I have a couple of old phones here. A 10 year old phone that is used as a bedside alarm and flashlight when needed. The other is a 6 year old phone that is used as a practice device of loading custom ROMs and jail breaking purposes.

Thats great. I consider the SMT essential apps to be honest. They are ad free, privacy friendly, and open source.

Obviously the easiest thing to do is find use for some of these stuff. For example:

• Old phones can be repurposed into MP3 players or podcast players
• Tablets can be used as eBook readers, video players, or smart home terminals.

If non of those things can be used, then I would try and sell them. You can always find someone who is looking for spare parts online.

If they are not sold, I would open them up and extract whatever can be used. Then sort them into recyclable and unrecyclable categories and dispose of them responsibly. Don't forget the batteries, dispose of them correctly please.

Yeah. Reminds of that day when a bunch of people broke into an apple shop to steal iPhones during a protest, just to have them all disabled next day.

I consider this a positive feature of having an android phone.

Hi @aeharding@lemmy.world

You might be able to help with that one :)

Never liked Chinese brand phones.

They are always filled with security holes, sometimes "accidentally on purpose".
