and the clear choice for the best place to put said messaging feature is in… checks notes… Google Maps
i can’t see any way how this would be both inconvenient and possibly distracting. nope, no way.
I still don’t know much, but I can read, and apparently that’s all it takes to make a Lemmy account

they were godsends back in the OnePlus 6/7 days because their phones and custom OS was meant to be more root friendly than the rest. it was what sold me and a buddy of mine on them in the first place
sadly, it’s gone south now but it was fun back when it happened
i mean in this case, if you’re planning to root you’d much rather use a custom OS that will still give you OS updates
or, just buy a different android and avoid the bs entirely
didn’t work for me at first too, but other YouTube specific ad blockers had side effects (videos opened in new tabs would play automatically instead of waiting for you to switch to that tab, etc)
here’s what I did:
reset uBlock to default settings, then purge caches and update
clear all caches in your browser (in Firefox/Chrome you can just search for cache in the settings search bar and it’ll come up)
fully close and reopen browser
installing better adblockers
or just updating uBlock lol. not sure what YouTubes team was expecting here
Google claims that privacy is a priority
lmfao
You can somewhat protect your own privacy via VPNs, adblockers… I personally use TrackerControl, which for the most part can identify and block unnecessary trackers and URL connections on an app-by-app basis to better protect your privacy
You can get it if you’ve enabled the IzzyOnDroid repo
Obtainium. For all those cool apps you find on GitHub, GitLab, FDroid, Izzy, APKPure, and more. In some cases you can add your own links and it’ll try to scrape them for APKs for app updates
I get it now, thanks
is accessing other communities of other instances what this app helps with?
can someone explain how exactly Lemmy works? I was told it was something like an alternative to reddit, but I don’t understand what instances are
Project sandcastle was always a PoC thing to me. On release, only the iPhone 7 was even close to being able to properly house the OS. Most devices would be missing important things like sound and cellular support, and wouldn’t be able to use the camera (among other things, some losing out on more than others depending on the exact device, there’s a whole spreadsheet that shows what works and what doesn’t for all Sandcastle-compatible devices)
Not to mention, file changes on Android using Sandcastle wouldn’t save, essentially meaning every time you reboot it’s like a factory reset (your iOS files are fine, just the Android bits wouldn’t be saved through a reboot)
There was some fork or continuation of this that brought on a bit more progress since then, but I can’t remember the name anymore. No new updates from that one for a while either
