I’m surprisingly level-headed for being a walking knot of anxiety.
Ask me anything.
Special skills include: Knowing all the “na na na nah nah nah na” parts of the Three’s Company theme.
I also develop Tesseract UI for Lemmy/Sublinks

Not sure about Android, but on iOS, when one scans a QR code it shows the web address on the screen that the user then taps on. For the average user, I doubt that they are going to question what the URL is before following through to the website.
Android does the same. The problem is most of those QR codes are encoded short links which tells you nothing about where they’re taking you.

could take you to a PDF on the restaurant’s Wordpress site or it could take you to malware or somewhere else you really don’t want to go.
In that case, I blame the people generating the codes for using URL shorteners. My org uses them in flyers for the public, and I always have to chastise them and re-create the QR codes because they run the URL to our website through bit [dot] ly. 😡
I used to work with a guy who was a dead ringer for Bill Bailey both in appearance and personality.
Weird. Other than how it used to choke when there were conflicts (and all uploads stopped until that was fixed) I haven’t had any issues like that. Guess I’m just lucky.
I’ve had pretty good experience with Nextcloud’s instant upload. The only time I’ve had it shit the bed was ages ago when it would occasionally get stuck on a conflict, but that hasn’t happened in a long time. Pretty much all of my image folders (camera/DCIM, Screenshots, Downloads) get synced. The only annoying thing was when apps would suddenly change where they download to and I’d have to reconfigure yet another sync folder, but I can’t really fault NC for that.
Mine is set to upload and keep a local copy and only do a one way sync (phone to NC). Not sure if that causes less issues than a 2 way sync or deleting the local copy after upload?
I dunno, and I’m not judging, but having had people close to me suffer from eating disorders, that arm upsets me lol.
Doesn’t matter what it is; it’s edible, and the owner of that arm desperately needs to eat it.
Pretty much same as you listed, actually, but with a few additions:

And yes, I consider all the re-post instances/bots to be spam.
Yeah, some are. It’s just unfortunate that you frequently have to pre-order, fund a kickstarter, or roll the dice with some unknown Chinese brand that may or may not ever see a software update/3rd party ROM support. That, or they’re more expensive because of the smaller production runs.
I really like the PlanetCom ones, but they’re a bit pricey and have some quirks that would probably make them not a good fit for me as a daily driver. Not sure I’d want to pay those prices for a secondary device.
I did order a Minimal Phone the other day (July batch), so hopefully should have that toward the end of July/early August.
Until then, I’ll keep using my Cat S22 Flip which I have grown to actually love.
While [insert ad company name] products are a little more expensive, the quality and customer service are unmatched. It evens out when you use the [insert ad company name] reward card which gives 5% off each purchase.
Both of my last two laptops have internal batteries. Both of them are also fairly easy to replace. The Thinkpad is the easiest (as is usually the case), but my old Zenbook is almost as easy (just requires a very tiny torx screwdriver which I already had from my cell phone repair days).
As long as they’re not glued in and otherwise a huge PITA to replace (like phones), I’m okay with internal batteries.
The only one I saw I kind of liked was the Titan, but it seemed a bit out of date (not sure if it gets updates, and I didn’t see it listed as supported for LineageOS).
50:1 aspect ratios!
My genuine hope is that this puts an end of the stupid “thinness wars” and we actually see innovation in devices again. I’m beyond sick of the “tall, skinny, razor-thin rectangle” form factor.
