Xiaomi and Poco phones are champions of bang for buck most of the time. But always at the cost of whatever data collection and ads.
It’s made worse that Xiaomi have been clamping down on unlocking the bootloader with more and more hoops.
I use Thunder on Android for my lemmy.zip account.
Interstellar for my kbin.earth and fedia.io accounts.
Trying out piefed with piefed.social because of their Topics and custom feeds. No “release ready” mobile apps yet, but IIRC either Interstellar or Thunder is trying out supporting piefed.
I think I’m going to like piefed for the custom feeds. That’s my most missed function from reddit, the multireddits. Their default Topics works well enough, but I have my opinions on it, and piefed allow I can set my own.
I don’t really use other fedithings. I’m like the normies, I want some kind of algo-feeding for microblogging and whatever instagram is categorised as, except for the threadiverse/reddit-like.
What I wish is more viable is the Huawei Pura SomeNumbers. It’s passport sized when closed, with a usable portrait-ish small outer screen to fit besides two cameras. Opens like a book into a landscape orientation, to a 16:10 ratio screen. A dream device.
Too bad it’s locked in China. Technically.
