You could also try Blue Line Console. It opens on top of the current screen, allowing you to search for apps and whatnot. Not sure how far it goes, as I have not used it extensively. But I do have it as my assist app (KISS is my Launcher, but you can also set Blue Line Console as a Launcher)

I am a fan of KISS, a rather simple launcher. It is also a search-based launcher.

How about IronFox for Android?

Luxury?! Have you ever had that happen at a movie theater? You just start sucking down on the limited coke that needs to last the whole movie, just to try and get that out. And all you wanted was to enjoy the movie in peace.

Though I will concede. Had some popcorm stuck between teeth during a movie. No fun. Not a kernel, though, and eventually either it was gone somehow, or I got used to it

Popcorn is great and all, but having some piece of popcorn stuck in your throat…

?Pork ay know lows doughs?

Thank you for your service!

Ayo, never seen no one express opinions like these, like mine, out in the wild! They do call themselves America, despite being only part of the continent. And their uncreative name. Big brain move they had there. Like a Monty Python sketch. I could see it to the tune of the witch scene

"What are countries made of?" "Land?" "People." "…Cows." "A church." … "States!" "That's right! And where are these states?"

I like to call them 'Muricans sometimes, to differentiate 'Murica (US) and the real America, the much bigger and, thanks to other countries, generally better one.

Irony Poisoning

I demand a shrubery

Maybe I'll consider a PieFed account. I might also consider just using neither, given I don't even get that much out of Lemmy itself. I just browse what's popular in what is probably an attempt to occupy time, which I guess could be better spent elsewhere. What would you say are the main differences between PieFed and Lemmy?

As for Wikipedia, not sure if they have an rss. You could also look into Wikinews, their 'news' sister project under Wikimedia. There's probably more activity there over Wikipedia

Thing with PieFed is it don't really have an app. I found Interstellar to be a bit too complicated, or too feature-heavy? Barely used it, though. I like Jerboa's simplicity. Non-US instances are nice, too. I ended up choosing an American* one, it seems, though I dunno what it got, so I dunno that it's 'Murica-centric

I get some news via short daily podcasts or Wikipedia's homepage. Or Lemmy. Though my podcasts have taken to mentioning the US president rather often this year, which goes to show the US influence on the world. But at least it don't bombard me like Lemmy

Wish Jerboa had that. But I've read it is not on their plans, as it is a hack done by others on top of Lemmy, due to a lack of official support from Lemmy itself (not a Lemmy feature, just a workaround by other app developers)

Eh, I don't have any community I'm particularly interested in so as to subscribe. I just see what's popular. I guess it's a way to fill time (or waste it)

Let'em cope.

Seriously, though, they must comprehend that one might not want to be bombarded with their news and politics. I doubt they'd enjoy every other post being about Honduras or wherever, and their president and news and politics, and everything centric to a country they don't particularly care about

Wish there were topics or categories, such that we could block that instead. Would make it easier

I like Jerboa for its simplicity, but it lacks keyword blocking. I also don't particularly have any community I'd like to follow. I just see what's popular. All the more reason to leave Lemmy, take up grass-touching instead

❌ Touchscreen ✅ Touch grass

Indeed. Sometimws I do feel like I just wanna go "fuck technology" and touch some grass instead. Disconnecting more is good, actually. So, yeah, grass is often better than Lemmy (for me at least).

I do be comming back here, though. Addicted to Lemmy, lol. Or to any source of entertainment, I guess. Something to fill my time

I'm more of a Jerboa user, not really web. But thanks anyway!

I shall say 'Ni!' again
