One of my biggest concern is banking apps not working. Is that still an issue with Custom ROMs? Edit: Nevermind, answerd below

Damn was this also the last time you had joy in your life?

Hit me up if you wanna do that survey again. I’ll gladly help you with structuring and formatting

+1 for Mailbox.org Comes with a great feature set and is inexpensive

Yeah I’m still on Windows 10

Tbf I do this too but sometimes Windows will shut down after an update and next time I start it it will “configure my PC”, restart once more and then show me the login screen. Doesn’t even take 5 tho. The worst thing however is when I start my laptop and login, just for Windows to decide it’s updating rn. However this is usually happening at work so I suspect that the update server on the domain pushes an urgent security update that can only happen once a user logged in. Still super annoying but doesn’t take more than 5 minutes.

I still have a Samsung Ultrabook Series 9 with Windows 7 Ultimate laying around. Buddy is over 10 years old and works in a pinch as a replacement device. It’s always a pleasure opening it and seeing the custom login screen

I wish I could upgrade it with a USB-C and more RAM but Samsung was really anti consumer back then…

I’m running Stock Android 13 Fairphone 5. So if it’s not available for you it’s most likely taken away by your vendor. I remember my Sony XZ2 with Android 10 already having that feature 🤔

That’s not right. As long as they are excluded from DnD with their phone number, Android will let them through. It even says so in the settings (feddit.de still has image upload issues but the info states that “Even if messaging and calling apps can’t reach you, people that you choose here can still reach you through those apps”)

I often have to run through folder systems on Windows so feature parity is important. At the office I have a mouse who has these buttons “hidden” on the scrollwheel. I can just push the wheel left or right. That’s pretty ergonomic and actually feels quicker than having thumb buttons on the side of the mouse :)

Browsing without a forward and backward buttons on the mouse is a fucking chore

No I haven’t tested them yet. However something I do notice is that people tend to forget the small drives much more often. Simply because of the form factor.

As a general purpose USB (which not only works great for daily use as a thumb drive but also works with no issues as Linux Live or persistent USB) I can recommend the Sandisk Ultra line. I had them everywhere from 16GB to 128GB. They never let me down. The housing might look like it’s made from flimsy plastic but it’s surprising sturdy.

A second drive I’m currently preparing for use as a persistent Linux drive is the Samsung portable SSD T7. It’s nice and sturdy and the USB C to USB C interface allows me to easily run it on my Laptop without using up any of my precious USB A ports.
