What I noticed – I turned on my 💻, opened Firefox then Firefox was updating. It was fast. So it hasn't been annoying so far.

There are a few phones (I hope there'll be more) that last 2 days with medium use. I'm :) for folks with those phones.

There are 4 Samsung apps that I'll erase if it'll be just a tap. So it's not very 👎. I can use Android debug bridge to erase those but I won't bother. If there are 30 bloat apps, I'll erase those.

I've been using my Samsung a70 for about 2 years. The Samsung apps are generally fine.

On Windows, Firefox has been my main browser for a long time. On Android, it has been my main for about 2 years. 1 of things I like re Firefox is its strict tracking protection. I read that Chrome would block by default 3rd-party trackers for 1% of the Chrome users this month. What about Google trackers? Anyway, it's absurd to expect privacy features from a firm that has advertising as 1 of its profit generators.

I want Firefox to grow at its own pace. I hope more folks will talk re Firefox. I think 1 of the factors why Firefox isn't so famous is –

In the phone and tablet boom in the last 10 years, some tended to use the default browser. For example, Safari on iPhone and iPad. Samsung, the top phone brand, has its own browser.

I won't be :o if, among phone browsers, more are using Samsung Internet browser (SIb) over Firefox.

I <3 Firefox. My phone is Samsung but I didn't and won't install SIb.

If Firefox focus Android has user-friendly tab management, it'll be my main browser. Its native ad blocker is 👍. 1 may say that there's Firefox Android + Ublock origin. But I <3 Firefox and I'm :) they have a native ad blocker.

Does it apply to Firefox Windows too? I couldn't resume some of my direct downloads. 1 factor why I've preferred torrents.

When I see a lot of 💩 on the site, I use Firefox's reader mode.

archive.md, 12ft.io or the "Bypass paywalls clean" extension for paywalls

I have Ublock origin to block the tracking.

I finished it. It was just OK for me.

Better call Saul (BcS) is better. Some parts may be boring but BcS made me think. Impressive writing.

They can put a sign saying it'll run when there's a person. Eventually it'll be common knowledge. I'm just thinking re efficiency.

I googled.

"When cooked, chicken can be a nutritious choice, but raw chicken can be contaminated with Campylobacter, Salmonella, or Clostridium perfringens germs. If you eat undercooked chicken, you can get a foodborne illness, also called food poisoning."

Yeaaaaaah, no way I'll try it.

I used to have a hard time when I wanted to fall 💤. Podcast has been magical to me. I play Daily tech news show then I'm 💤.

I didn't know Fastforward. I won't need to wait 10 s on 1 of those sites anymore. Thanks.

I think you'll be :) with the Pixel 8.

I dunno if this is a hot take. I don't focus on updates. Major software updates generally have new features. Minor software updates are generally security updates or bug fixes. It's OK for me if the device is in its last lap update-wise. It's not like it'll be unusable if there's no major update anymore. Buy a device for what it is now. If it'll get 4 major updates, that's a bonus, not a hard requirement when buying a device.

If I'm recalling right, I asked Chatgpt re banked turn with friction. Didn't give the answer I was looking for.

I asked Chatgpt re the best big phones of 2022. 1 of the phones it cited was released in 2021.
