No problem here with Fold3 on Android 14, luckily

Skagen Jorn gen 6 hybrid

Pros:

• Looks like stylish regular watch with real hands
• Always-on e-ink screen
• Good Gadgetbridge support
• Battery life about 5 weeks

Cons:

• Expensive
• Slow due to e-ink screen
• Limited features compared to full smart watches

Honestly, if you don’t feel like self-hosting could be a hobby, just don’t do it.

If done correctly, it can take up quite some time, but that can definitely be worth it (privacy, freedom, hobby/fun, etc). But if not done correctly, that can cause problems in security, performance, compatibility and perhaps even financials.

Just find an instance you like (read the rules about privacy, allowed languages, allowed content, etc) and create an account there.
