While I agree with your position of current reddit comments, the OP was comparing to old reddit. I feel like it’s only been true in the past 5-8 years of reddit. And while that’s not what I’m looking for, the low amount of engagement here is a bit too low where I start considering just getting like a news aggregator app. I’d prefer something with SOME discussion as that was part of the value of reddit for me.
I agree, but I just wish it was easier to find interesting communities. Sorting by “hot” definitely dredges up more content, but they’re all like 0-5 comment posts. Sorting by active shows the same few posts for a few days. I’ve been trying to sub to communities that seem interesting in “hot” content, but there just doesn’t seem to be a lot of content yet? I may just be spoiled by the scale of reddit, but this seems fairly low and feels a little empty.
Am I just missing good communities? Is there somewhere to find them? Or are we still just really “too early” where most content is only getting 5-10 comments?
If this is actually their thinking, why even bother with the Fediverse at that point?
Literally from the “debunking” article you posted:
The only thing they may be good for is that studies have shown the blue light can interfere with our bodies’ light cycle
Googles already been doing this for years.
Pretty sure this is root only. Normal apps don’t have access to the charge controller and I’ve never seen an app that claims to do this without root.
I don’t know why Google hasn’t put this feature directly into Android. It’s honestly one of the biggest pushes away from Pixel devices for me and it’s absolutely silly.
Honestly, this is more bad “charging hygiene” than anything else. I thought this was the case too until like 10 years ago when I learned how Li-on batteries worked, and since then, I’ve had negligible battery deterioration after 3+ year old devices.
The TLDR is don’t charge your phone past ~80% except on rare days you need the extra juice, and by extension, definitely don’t leave your phone on the charger overnight. Most people do exactly that and it absolutely murders your battery health.
If you’re on Android, AccuBattery is helpful with charge alarms and detailed info if you want to learn about it.
If you have a Samsung with the “protect battery” quick option, it’s a god send and makes this all super easy.
Foldables are the only interesting thing to have happened to smartphones in the past like 6-8 years. It’s kind of sad.
As long as the paper is not easy to access then in all ways this is better then software.
You have to log into a website. Enter the password from the sheet of paper. Now log in again with a password manager that has autofill.
Paper is not better in “all ways” and that’s why this thread is being downvoted.
Maybe my interest are too niche, but the trending communities stuff has felt too… Bland/general for me. I’ll keep trying it though, thanks.
The stuff I’ve seen has had communities with many posts but only a handful of comments. Maybe that only exists in those larger, more general communities for now though.
