You forgot to name the prestigious degree: "Entire Political Science"

Google, the poor multi-billion dollar scrappy startup that maintains Android, made a payment app that has one notification setting, "Google Pay". So all the ads, promotions, everything.

Amazon is another poor startup that does that on their Android app.

I have a PWA (Web App) created for this website on my home screen. I always check downloaded APKs by uploading them here.

It's smart. It does not always require you to upload the apk. 99% of the time, the APKs from Mobilism are already uploaded and scanned there by other users. In that case, the website simply checked the file hash, skips the upload and shows the scan results.

As for the scan results themselves, I'm not an expert. Maybe others on this thread can help you there.

This is my story:

1. YouTube has a limit of 5000 videos in a playlist. So, the default 'Watch Later' playlist was filled up quickly for me.

1. Then I created a 2nd playlist named 'Watch Later 2' where I'm 3600 videos in. But now I've ditched this playlist for something new.

1. Instead, now I simply open a video & close it, to add it to my History. 'History' also has a search button now, but it needs the exact video title I guess, no typos.

Also, I have a total of 84 different custom playlists that I've created for different topics & God knows the total number of videos they contain that need to be "watched later".

This is my life now in YouTube.

1. Mixplorer Silver - Feature-packed File Manager
2. Hermit - Lightweight PWA browser
3. Instaddr - creates disposable Email addresses
4. Readera - Feature-packed book reader
5. Moon+ Reader - Feature-packed book reader
6. Balance - for Meditation. They have been offering a one year free trial for some time now. It has been really helpful for me. Their programs are highly customised to achieve your goals. Give it a try.
7. KWGT & KWLP - if you're into home screen customisation, then these are must haves.
8. 1DM - Feature-packed Browser and Download Manager (Direct downloads & torrents)
9. Niagara Launcher - Lightweight, minimalist, with solid, fluid animations. One-hand friendly. Free version has ZERO ADS. I've been using the free version for a couple of years now. I'm hooked to it. I don't think I can go back to a normal App Drawer drawer style launcher now. They offer one time purchase as well for the pro version. I felt no need for the pro features, though i'd definitely buy the pro to support the dev.

Some of these have decent free alternatives. Mixplorer is free to use officially through XDA. KWGT & KWLP have free ad supported versions available through their official website. Regardless, these have been installed on all my phones for years now.

and for promotions you could use !newcommunities@lemmy.world

I was introduced to reddit via the Relay for Reddit app by an MKBHD video. For me relay was reddit. Couple of years later I found Reddit has a website and an official app. I took a look. ALL MY FAITH WAS LOST IN UI DESIGN & MY EYES WERE BURNING.

There's also DeArrow by the same developer that made SponsorBlock. It converts clickbait titles and thumbnails to be descriptive rather than being clickbaity and sensational.

Yep. They are all great. Photon is my favourite so far. Sleek & Fast with a Black & White theme. But they are still a Work in Progress amd lack features. I tried them a week ago. I always end up reverting back to lemdro.id

I was thinking about this yesterday: How come only SmartTube has proper Google login, while other Third party wrappers don't.

It would be awesome to use NewPipe with Google login. It's so fast and lightweight compared to the official YouTube based apps.

Can someone Eli5 what's this about? My guess is this is about windows game emulation on Android.

I guess the iPhone sales numbers in the US are keeping them awake. I personally think Apple will only bend if they are forced somehow by the US government, like the way EU did with type-C.

From my limited understanding of web trackers, tracking companies like Facebook & Google and other 3rd party trackers like to identify unique users on the internet so that they can be served targeted ads suited to that unique user's traits. They do this by creating unique 'Fingerprints' for these users by taking note of their browser characteristics like Timezone, Screen resolution, Fonts, Language preferences, etc.

This setting simply resets this fingerprint daily so that these tracking companies are not able to track you on the basis of your browser attributes. if you turn this on it will increase your privacy but will break some websites.

Why don't 3rd launchers not support native gestures yet? Why does Google refuse to fix that?

Use Obatanium to update GitHub apks. You can add other sources too.

kbin's api is not out yet for app developers is what I have heard.

Literally.

Great video though.

I don't get it. Are the snake and the plane shown by the image viewer without the window?

If you are looking for native Lemmy apps for Windows, I don't know if they exist.

But here is an awesome updated list of webapps available for Lemmy: The Great Big List of Lemmy Apps

You can create a shortcut for them on your desktop. These are fast and minimal and have different styles. There is one webapp in there that is very similar to the old[dot]reddit site.
