ChromeOS does run android apps, but to run them well you need 8gb of RAM because both VMs run -Android and Linux.- With this implementation Android apps would run natively, and thus only requiring more ram for Linux apps in the VM they plan to add.
Preliminary PWA support only on Windows??? windows…
what would need to change for you to actually give a flip phone a try?
For me to start using my phone as the main way of my computing needs and entertainment needs. Which I don’t. I only use it to send messages and read when my laptop is not in my hands. So I essentially have a not-so-smartphone, not-so-dumbphone.
Yeah, phones are quite capable now. I ran a MC server just for me and some friends and it seemed fine.
I tried another server with mods and it exploded. Mine is quite small: 3GB RAM, so not much for a modded server.
I would host a lot of shit on my phone werent it for my ISP which only provides IPv4 and also puts me behind CG-NAT.
I believe this will pass. Sooner or later, the AI companies will have to stop losing money and adjust their pricing. And then it’ll turn out that using AI for everything gets you worse results than humans, at the same cost. And that will be that. I hope I can hang on until then.
such hope, i wish i had

But isn’t this what people are trying to avoid when it comes to digital privacy? User data being used in less algorithms?
Yes. Invidious and other programs, websites and anything else are useful for these kind of things. When you go to another house and in another computer you want to see some video but not affect the watch history of the user that uses the computer mainly. Or just simply watching some video that you wouldn’t normally watch.
But most people who use YouTube actively on their main computer binge-watch. Sometimes they follow creators, sometimes they follow what the algorithm recommends them for the day. Invidious does not have such algorithm, since its a proxy. So, it is really not for everyone.
You see how often growing youtubers complain about more than 85% of their viewers are not subscribed to the channel, or how just some videos have more views than their main content? The issue is that Invidious doesn’t have the algorithm Youtube provides to everyone, and that not a lot of people really watch their subscribed page.
one more step to transform this laptop into an androidbook
What’s so funny is that they were going to allow encrypted (they say) calls on the web app but then suddenly released a native windows client and told everyone if you wanted calls you need to use it, then removed all buttons for calls or video calls.
I guess they’re coming back on that.
For me, the reason why Delta Chat hadn’t caught up on me is stickers. There’s a sticker picker on desktop, but not on mobile, and its behind more settings. Weird that it doesnt do it like WhatsApp where stickers are added to personal collections (favorites) that only sync between accounts and can be added manually; it’s not necessary to make it like Telegram or Signal where you can add a collection from a repository.
For chatting it is really enough. Like email.
It’s why Molly has local database encryption.
Their point is to make them dissapear, not fix.
I only use SearXNG because it loads faster than DDG for me. It parses very very fast on my low end pc, and thats what I wish.
