I thought Nova was going the way of dinosaurs (i.e. there’s only one developer left to support it).

Edit to add: Unlikely that Google will do anything about it. What will users do - switch to iOS? Also, is it completely in Google’s hands, since stock launchers on third party devices such as OnePlus, Samsung, et al continue to work quite well.

There’s also an option to transfer your chats to another device without backing up to Google drive, but it obviously works only as a transfer tool not as a backup.

This is the technically correct answer. My good person, you have, very clearly, been thinking a lot about this! Well explained!!

Edit to add: reversing in gives you a much better angle than pulling in because it’s your front wheels which are doing all the steering work.

UIs have started to hide the actual details

This is what it’s really about. There’s no need to understand the nuts and bolts because now the software obfuscates all of that.

Hi. I’ve heard quite a few people do this but never managed to ask why. So, taking the opportunity to ask.

What I mean is, if the large part of the phone is about the software experience and software optimisation (and the hardware in itself is nowhere near cutting edge) what’s the upside of installing a non-google OS on it?

Perhaps I’ll try it someday. For today, just curious. If you could shed some light on it. Thank you!

Thank you very much!

Seems a bit roundabout to access it like that but I guess that’s a downside of the federated structure shrugs

Nonetheless, thanks for clarifying this, much helpful!

Hi and thank you for putting this together!

When I’m searching for Lemmy posts from the browser, if I’m taken to a post on a different server, do I need to register/login on that server to be able to comment?

Or can I open that post on Jerboa, logged in from my account, to comment?
