I’m using Sync for lemmy and another Sync for reddit thanks to ReVanced.

I used to do this, effectively it confused my brain of which platform I was at at the moment lol.

Anyway not anymore since Sync for Lemmy is so busted to me in my instance (not even showing upvotes for example) and the dev has been absent for so long that I am already using another app (my personal favorites are Summit, Voyager and Boost).

I always try to use Lemmy, but Reddit is always more attractive to me because:

1. The Sync for Reddit app works way better than Sync for Lemmy (I understand there are a lot of clients for Lemmy, which is good, but my brain got so used to it that I always struggle with other apps).

2. I never used Reddit to browse mainstream media (like r/all) I always browse subreddits I liked and created multi subreddits of them, some examples of them:

Handhelds (SBCgaming, 3DS, PsVita, nds, PSP etc).

Media (Piracy, Arr stack, Stremio add-ons, Kodi add-ons etc).

As you can see none of those communities or similar are particularly big, so I think they have entirely enshitified… (Maybe just r/piracy lol).

Thanks to my allergies I can sneeze with my eyes open, (I don’t close them all the way) I remember people saying that was not possible?

With that reduced amount of “me time” (he/she time?) I bet OP wouldn’t understand videogame references /s

This is an issue of the past for me since I started using Real Debrid with Kodi and Stremio.

I have a good backup amount in 1080p in Plex (physical and debrid symlinks), but when I want to experience 4K films properly I head up to Stremio or Kodi.

I just finished Ace Attorney Investigations II and I am at that stage confused for where to go now after finishing a game (is not that I do not have a backlog lol).

Anyway, I continued Pokémon Omega Ruby yesterday but I have that one, TWEWY, BOTW (both for Switch) and Chrono Trigger for DS sitting in the middle of a playthrough and I don’t know where to go now.

I just went to Pokémon because I never finished the GBA version and it is the easiest IMO, TWEWY I beat the DS version multiple times and I consider that one better than the Switch one (gameplay wise) maybe that is why it hasn’t caught up my attention so much.

BOTW is MASSIVE! And the joycon drift demotivates me lol And Chrono Trigger… I am pretty sure I am about to finish the 1st ending… But I am kinda lost in the plot lol.

So, did Reddit lose a considerable amount of user base since then or not?

No, I prefer my 2020 phone over my 2014 one… But maybe that is not entirely what you want to mean in your post.

You don’t need to upgrade your “tech” yearly though.

Kinda related, it seems that the Fen Light addon creator also says goodbye to the Kodi scene… It seems like a big day for streaming piracy.

It is official, vanilla internet is fucked.

They are quite annoying to me, especially if I am multitasking fast, it will kinda get stuck in the middle of the usage… And that is not nice.

If your device has more than 60 hz, perhaps that feature might mask this a bit, but definitely stock launcher will always have smoother animations than third parties if you are using full screen gestures, I am currently in MIUI (I was on AOSP before) and well, I can’t even install another launcher here, but I can confirm it is as smooth as it can be.

The only thing you are missing is smooth animations while minimizing apps or triggering the app switcher, swipe between apps works fine.

if I watch a movie or doomscroll on Lemmy

Are you telling me we really made Lemmy that good to be as good bad as Reddit? 🤯

Exactly, thus I am not using anything but Lawnchair with Quick Switch (requires root) as a launcher replacement.

They should just let us install icon packs, third party launchers are broken since A12 or A11 if you use full screen gestures (and I would not use android buttons even if I get paid for it lol).

The pastel colors are washed out and unattractive.

And then it’s me who thinks A12 was the best UI change that Android has had… But don’t mind me, I came from iOS something at that date, so I am kinda used to “simpler” UIs.

I do agree you should be able to customize it yourself, AFAIK you can do so if you are rooted.

Why only limit it to one model?

Yeah, many of us hoard a lot of tabs, for the better for worse, but even after some simple web searches you can gather a lot of links quickly, so it is always handy to have a good tab management.

OP said he’s using a private tracker, are all private trackers guaranteed to work with the arr stack?
