I’ve been using NextDNS for about 1.5 years as a paid customer.

Sometimes I run into these weird connection issues where nothing loads. I turn off private DNS on Android then turn it back on and pages start loading again. I haven’t had this issue on iPadOS and Windows.

I don’t know if it’s an Android thing or a NextDNS thing.

I wish there was an easier way to enable/disable it on their website as sometimes you need to access a website blocked by your filters and it can be cumbersome to remove private DNS in Windows’ settings.

Other than that it’s worked well.

Unfortunate.

I made a subreddit https://old.reddit.com/r/RandomButton/ a decade ago to showcase subreddits I discovered via /r/random. Kept it updated for about a year.

Firefox works fine for me so I’ll stick to it. Chrome will have annotation support for those that need it though.

Google also had a lightweight PDF reader decoupled from Google Drive but it looks like it’s no longer available: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.apps.pdfviewer

Cool! I enjoy year-in-review stats.

Nothing serious, but I track all the games I play. According to stats, I completed 30 games and spent a total of 4d 15h 32m playing games this year.

As a child I yearned for the mines

Live action version of the animated movie?

Why?

Mostly Lemmy. Mastodon sometimes – I have to spend more time there muting RSS bot accounts to find stuff of my interest.

Dipping my toes into Bluesky as well. So far it’s been good – very polished experience.

I also lurk quite a bit on Tildes.net.

I have to agree. A16 is looking to include more features and improvements than A15.

Hopefully my Pixel 6a makes the cut for Android 16.

6 series (don’t know about 6a) won’t receive major OS updates anymore.

8 and 9 series come with seven years of OS updates.

I remember trying K9 years ago and the UI/UX felt hostile to me trying to add accounts and I uninstalled it. Tried it again last year or so and it was painless. It just worked.

It’s now my default email app and I look forward to improvements as it becomes Thunderbird.

Genius Bar

Once a week.

Dark, Twisted and Cruel from Alan Wake II’s soundtrack.

Haven’t played the game yet. Came across the song while listening to Alan Wake’s American Nightmare’s soundtrack.

Even crazier is when the central screen is also your speedometer and gear switch.

It’s crazy how much control is shoved into menus on the touchscreen.

0-60 mph in 1.38s is insane.

A sort of sequel to my post from 9 months ago.
