Just looked into it, according to this post account scores were removed from Lemmy. I’ll have to edit my comment.

They must have changed it because Boost was the only app I ever used.

It does, it’s just disabled by default. Some third party clients, like Boost for Lemmy, have it enabled (or at least it did, it’s been a while since I’ve used it).

Edit: as it turns out, the Karma count was removed from Lemmy in version 0.19.

I’m gonna be honest, I don’t like the amount of power big corporations have. Nintendo is currently abusing their power to stifle their competition and potentially harm the future of gaming. Google recently proved that they have pretty much full control over the internet. Microsoft is ruining the entire PC market. I could name more but these are the first few that came to mind.

I would consider doing that but I’d rather not have to go through the process of re-downloading all my apps and re-customizing my phone just because I disabled a potentially important app.

I forgot to mention these in my previous comment but I’ve added some information about the app in my post. As for that app that you mentioned, I’ve never used ADB commands before and I don’t want to risk bricking my phone, so I don’t know if I’m going to use it.

It’s not the account that I’m worried about. It’s hard for me to explain what I’m actually concerned about. I guess an example would be that the SIM card becomes invalid or something. One of the phones where I disabled Mobile Services has an effectively permanent error at the top of the screen that says “invalid SIM card”.

Yes but it’s still possible and I have yet to see someone mention that they were able to disable it and still use their phone service.

I would try but I don’t want to disable something if I don’t know for sure that it’s safe to disable.

I’d try that but I don’t want to end up finding out that disabling it permanently disables my phone’s service. My phone’s service is through Tracfone and they are the developers of the app.

Ok I figured out that you don’t actually have to setup Shizuku to use Canta. The only problem is that Canta doesn’t provide a description for Mobile Services. It just provides the package name, which I searched for online, but the only thing I can find is that it’s specific to Tracfone devices.

I actually can’t uninstall it but I just using my phone’s settings app and either remove or disable it depending on what that phone allows me to do. Canta seems pretty complicated to use but I’ll try it and see what it tells me.

I’ve been using Fennec F-Droid, which is based on Firefox. I mostly use it because I want a non-chromium based browser and Firefox and it’s derivatives have browser extensions on android. I chose Fennec F-Droid because, while I could be wrong, it seems to be slightly smaller and run slightly faster than Firefox.

I haven’t been paying to much attention to the news but I’ve heard that other, non-NATO, countries have threatened some of the countries that are just simply giving aid to Ukraine. So, I’d assume that those other countries would get involved in some way and just make things worse for everyone.

The thing that I don’t understand is that, if this is such a big problem for Microsoft, why not just remove the system requirements or at least make an alternative version of Windows 11 that, even if it lacks certain features, doesn’t have those requirements?

Microsoft wants people to switch to Windows 11 but a majority stay with Windows 10 because their systems don’t have what’s required and they’re either not willing to use Linux or they can’t for what ever their reason is. Making Windows 11 more accessible to Windows 10 users would fix this problem for most users but they’re not for some reason. I know they’re Microsoft and Microsoft doesn’t care about their users but they’re seemingly willing to lose a significant portion of their users over something so insignificant, which is out of character for Microsoft.

I know you’re probably just joking but I’m not actually sure why it’s called that. The only thing it does that other keyboards don’t (outside of having more keys than anyone would probably need) is that, I’m pretty sure it’s the smallest keyboard app for android. It’s only 1 MB while the second smallest keyboard I know is the LG Keyboard and that uses a little over 4 MB.

While I normally use whatever the default keyboard app is, I do sometimes use Unexpected Keyboard. It doesn’t have auto-correct but it has more keys available than even normal keyboards do. It may take some getting used to though as, for example, to use the “alts” for each key, you have to swipe in that direction. So for example if you wanted to press “Esc” with the default settings, you’d press q and swipe diagonally down and to the right.

For customization, I don’t know if you can add images or gifs but there is some visual options and you have pretty much full control over the layout of the keyboard and what keys it has.

I think since at least middle school. I was already aware of some of the lies and “half truths” that they were teaching us. I don’t remember most of what they taught us but I remember telling some of my classmates about it and they acted like I was weird.

There are currently two main reasons I don’t use PeerTube:

1. Videos have inconsistent playback performance.
2. It’s pretty confusing and difficult to use if you are just looking for an experience similar to YouTube.

If they can find a way to make playback performance consistent and make the entire experience better, then I’d consider using it. But, I already use YouTube alternatives like Odysee and Rumble, so I don’t know how much I’d end up actually using PeerTube.

I’m going to assume that I can’t just buy a 100$ gift card to buy multiple things, so I’d probably just buy a cheap tablet/phone or something.

On a bit of a tangent, I actually looked into android tablets to see if you could actually buy one for 100$. It looks like you can get some decent ones but I’m so confused by their wording. I hate that they seem to use the terms “ram”, “rom” and “memory” both interchangeably and completely differently from how their used for PCs. Does anyone else have this issue or is the mobile market completely different from the PC market?
