Nice, hopefully this fix Sync for Lemmy issues with sorting.

Yes it is a thing, and it is a beautiful thing.

You have installed the Sync for Lemmy Lurk edition.

Huh, this sounds nice, although I don’t quite understand how to implement it to my scenario, my carrier does not allow hotspot either, that’s why your comment intrigued me, but I am not sure how to achieve this, even when I get the big picture 😅

Just relax, eat chips, and doom scroll your way to death

But Lemmy is down.

For me yes, I can tweak my system at my liking, root breaking things is not something that has ever happened to me, all my bank app works without issues and I can’t remember the last time they didn’t.

I run Paranoid Android rooted along with tons of apps that require root acces such as Swift Backup, Adaway, App Manager, BBS, FKM, KonaBess, Pixelifly for Google Photos, Saver Tuner, Revanced, SD Maid, Termux, X-Plore etc.

And some modules like Zygisk, Detach, Pixel Launcher Extended

I know some of those apps doesn’t require root specifically (can work with adb) but for me is just easier to just put Magisk and call it a day.

I use SwiftBackup as my backup solution, is Neo Backup any better?

circumventing Hotspot restrictions from my Carrier.

What kind of restrictions?

How much improved in SOT terms?

Well, for starters do you have a mac?

I wouldn’t attempt to try hackintosh or something like that in a non Apple product, not if you don’t like thinkering at least.

Obviously macOS works better with Apple products, performance and battery wise (for example in models where you can install Windows it sucks big time battery performance wise, and the hardware doesn’t help either).

What I like about my mac is that it is like having the best of Windows and Linux merged, you got a nice interface with good program support and also scratches the Linux itch with its terminal, and you can also install homebrew from there, very similar as you’d do from any Linux distro (I manage completely my Synology NAS from there with SSH for example, something that was not always possible in Windows natively).

The keyboard commands are nice as well.

Maybe I just feel that way because my OS journey went from Windows > Linux > macOS.

By no means it is a perfect OS, It sucks that it is not as customizable as the other two, also its window management sucks balls without the proper programs (apps/programs really improve the experience overall).

Honestly I don’t think I can cover all the good and bad things about this OS, or any other, if you are interested you can give a quick glance in any Apple store, but that is just the tip of the iceberg obviously.

I see, thanks for the clarification!

Same setup, I hardly doubt his setup works better than this.

macOS and I like that despite how closed it is you can find new features, commands, apps and cool facts any day, I am gonna start to log all the good shit it has because my brain can’t keep up LMAO.

Call me crazy, but I don’t see people rocking laptops from 2008 until this date, I have seen people using Macs from that day using recent macOS versions (with OCLP) and some hardware tweaks like upgrading the RAM or SSD if needed, or replacing the battery.

Heck my Mac is from 2014 and it runs fairly fine.

Yes, I am not saying Mastodon is better than Lemmy in that regard, but it is something at least, and you get an idea of what people to follow to boost your feed anyway.

I have seen some interesting things there that I don’t see on Lemmy, mainly speaking of some not that popular gaming or handhelds, but maybe this is an effect of a higher user base there than here.

And probably never will, as I said I hardly used Twitter so I guess I never “tuned” my algorithm.

By algo you meant algorithm? If that’s it then you can follow hashtags and you’ll have your feed more interesting for yourself with no algorithm involved.

I never used Twitter, but I am enjoying Mastodon a lot now that I follow my own stuff :)

That’s fair, more avocados for me.

Avocados are great!

Hot works for me, top doesn’t.
