For your phone use "newpipe".

For privacy on your computer use YouTube in a different browser than your main browser without logging in. For example I use brave with an ad blocker just to watch YouTube on my computer and then I go back to my main browser for my daily usage for anything that's not a Google service/website

In my experience I've noticed Linux tends to (disproportionately) attract both libertarians and socialists/communists. I feel like I run into more of both within the Linux community than I do in other communities.

I started using Linux because I couldn't force myself to use Windows 8. Up to that point I used whatever version of Windows came right before the graphical interface but 8 was too awful so I started playing with mint and never went back..

I got off the capitalism train in the middle of that but that was only because I decided to major in business and when I saw how the sausage was made I jumped ship but I didn't know anything about socialism or communism or marxism or whatever you want to call it. I was so not into politics or economics that I literally had to search the Internet and ask people on social media what was an alternative to the crap I was reading for my classes.. And then I went down that rabbit hole. If was enlightening. I learned a lot.

Also... for people who think college is Marxist indoctrination...Marx was brought up for one paragraph in one book at the very very end of my 4 years. But by that point I already knew who he was just from the rabbit hole I went down when I was curious for some alternative to what I was being taught.

If enough people steal via self checkout they will go away. (This is not shopping/self checkout advice)

Yeah I've been looking for an alternative to Nova myself. I've tried many but I just keep coming back for one reason or another. .I have graphene os but the default launcher is a little too plain for me. The search continues I guess. I'll check some listed here that I haven't tried. Maybe lawnchair will be worth it when they put out a new release.

It's all one side. I know fans of each party like to twist themselves in knots to find daylight between them but outside of the culture war nonsense & which brand of idpol they subscribe to, the distance between them has only gotten smaller with every passing election in my lifetime.

The supposed solution to trump and the gop (who was labeled a dangerous madman that would get us into ww3) was to elect Biden and the Democrats

What has happened since?

• Provoke Russia
• Provoke China
• Provoke Iran
• Arm Nazis in Ukraine
• Aid "Israel" in their genocide

All while their own citizens continue to struggle with basics like food & shelter.

Will republicans be happy to continue all of these? 100%. But let's not pretend there's some grand meaningful difference between them unless your most important issues fall within the category of the culture war in which case you must be doing pretty well.

This is just American voters in general every single election. Vote red. Vote blue. Doesn't matter. It just keeps getting worse.

Oh. I didn't realize that OP was in Germany.

I might be in the minority but I actually like the camera visor more than what Samsung does because Samsung phones never sit flat. There's a small wobble because the camera is on one side. At least with the pixel camera visor the phone doesn't do that when you set it down on a flat surface. If anything it very slightly tilts the phone towards you. Not as extreme but it reminds me of a keyboard the way it's slightly titling the keys towards you to make typing easier.

Swappa.com is the place to go. You can find them new in the box there for less than the Google store or if you're willing to go used they're even cheaper. Plus you have PayPal protection as a buyer. I've bought and sold phones on there since like 2014 (I think I've bought 8-9 phones and sold roughly the same amount on there without any issues)

Honestly it's kind of shocking this didn't happen sooner. Idk how people follow Jesus and then say, "those homeless people sleeping under that bridge are drug addicts and bums. They're getting exactly what they deserve because they don't want to work" and the general glorification of "free market" capitalism to the point of arguing not all people are worthy of things like healthcare or food.

To me it just never seemed compatible with their religion and if you look to South America there's a strong correlation between socialism/communism and Christianity/Catholicism.. Nicaragua is a fine example of this. (See image) "Christianity, socialism, solidarity" is what it says.

I think it's likely updates. The phone was originally built with an earlier version of the OS in mind. Just a guess. I feel like this happens to all my phones eventually.

Fwiw I have an old s21 fe version that I still play with (I have a pixel 8 now) and it feels more sluggish than it used to.

I'm on Lemmy.world & using the eternity app I haven't had any real issues yet but it's only been about 2 months for me since I started using this platform.

For me it's this (the color coded notification LED on phones) and while on the topic of phones I used to have a xiaomi phone several years ago that had an infrared face unlock feature so you could use face unlock in complete darkness. Haven't had a phone with that before or after. It was awesome.

Are you using the VPN on your laptop or phone only? If so, maybe try to run your VPN at the router level and see if you can cast then? It might work..

Your argument is that it was smart to go this route and let thousands be killed only for them to end up (at best) in the same place they would've been had they just negotiated a peaceful resolution in the first place.

The absolutely delusional take was the popular opinion that all that needed to be done was to shove as many weapons as possible into Ukraine and with that they would defeat Russia. I even recall talks of "taking Crimea" (which is kind of silly in retrospect given their inability to retake the donbass region).

Instead of avoiding most of this bloodshed thousands of lives were lost only to end up at basically the same position they would've ended up had this just been negotiated early on and that's me being optimistic & assuming they'll be offered the same deal as before (which there's very little incentive for Russia to do given their position, Ukraine's position, & the west's appetite to continue funding/arming Ukraine going forward.
