  • If you want to use a custom rom, i can recommend pixels. Basically every custom rom is first and sometimes only available for pixel. I myself have a pixel 6a with lineageOS and magisk for root. Works fine apart from expected problems of tinkering with normally locked down files (be careful with ui customisation, got into a bootloop cause i wanted to change my quick tiles. Luckily easily fixed by deleting the settings folder of the app)

    Edit: The app i mentioned was iconify which has a guide on what to do when bootlooping because of the app. (Need adb for that tho)






  • The only good thing about apple is all the emergency stuff they include in phones and watches. Like fall detection and i think they included the ability to call emergency services via satellite. But other than that and the working together of different devices apple loses in all aspects









  • While there are multiple points i’d disagree to, im tired of this convo.

    However is it really advertising if it’s so universal that you don’t even know it’s a brand? Like at this point people don’t even recognise pop sockets as a brand but rather a type of product. Like when i say noodles there are many producers.

    Anyway, let’s just agree to disagree


    1. No i haven’t
    2. No i haven’t
    3. No i haven’t
    4. No im not, i always buy clothes, from whatever is the first brand i happend to grab, that also suits me. In fact i absolutely despise brand logos on anything i own. Hell i cover up my phones logo with a popsocket or similar.

    To think everyone is as vulnerable to ads as some random dude says, or as a handful of studies with like 1000 people show is the ignorant thing here. Not everyone is the same. And if i think about all the comments i have seen under videos that talked about exactly that, then ads seem to even have a negative effect when presented to younger generations, gen z for example.

    Also you can just avoid ads. Click no on every optional setting on websites etc., use an ad-blocker, Sponsorblock for YouTube. When outside pit your headphones in/on and listen to your favourite music, and don’t look anywhere you are not going. Ads are only everywhere if you let them be

    I can remember exactly one ad from when i was like 7. If i see an ad i just zone out. And everything i buy is because i researched it, it’s the only thing of that type in store, or i tested it and decided i liked it.

    I don’t think the majority of people are as vulnerable to ads as you think
