Irregularly Updated Community Feedback: PipedLinkBot Gone Rampant Edition
pin
Previously: [Submission Statement Edition](https://lemmy.world/post/3297922) Haven't done these in a while, so let's get started. 1. Since we haven't really heard any feedback one way or the other, *rule 8 is now official*. To be fair, we've had a lot less microblog posts than I expected (only one Twitter/X post in the last month even after I waited longer than the initial 1-2 weeks expected, and that was a crosspost.) - Again, the rules are always a work in progress, feel free to give your two cents here whenever you like. 2. As you guys know, PipedLinkBot went completely insane 2 days ago and looks like it's temporarily shut down. So, I'd like to use this opportunity to explain why I banned the bot pretty much immediately after our community reopened. (And gloat a bit, of course) - Even though I do agree with the principle of using open source, privacy focused frontend instead of using Youtube directly, I have a real problem with using a bot to respond every time somebody posts a Youtube link. It feels like spam, and it doesn't feel like it serves any utility besides pushing an agenda (even though many people here would agree with it). Most people have seen it around here enough to use pipedvideo if they wanted it to use it already. - I think it's always been a rage inducing part of the reddit experience that you see you received a response to your comment, but only have it been a bot smugly correcting your grammar or tell you all your letters are in order or something useless like that. So, for this place, I would like to make sure that everyone you talk to here is a real person as much as possible, because people inspire people to be greater, but bots don't.

Dead touch digitizer graphene pixel 6a backup methods
I have a pixel 6a with graphene installed. I want to transfer everything to a second pixel 6a but the digitizer is toast. I tried mouse via usb a to c dongle to get in and back stuff up, but it doesn't work on lock screen presumably until it is unlocked once with the mouse plugged in, as with the new one. really any backup method that can work will do if there are any.

I currently use a normal tablet for watching lectures + taking notes in splitscreen mode, but I've been thinking that this would be the ideal device for my workflow. Essentially a hinged, dual-pane tablet with stylus support – prefarably with Android. Does anyone know if something like this exists, or if there are any tablets that I can buy a second hinged screen for?

It has much less bloatware than the stock Samsung ROM, the thing is that I feel it's unstable. You do get Galaxy AI as well, and the Vulcan Updates app is a bit broken (at least in my case). Good ROM? Yes.

From fast4x in the RiMusic Telegram channel: > Hi all, i can only say that i am very sorry and that unfortunately the project cannot continue to be a music streaming app based on YouTube. It is unfortunate this happened to such a good FOSS music streaming app. Hopefully, someone can continue it. To all the people who contributed to RiMusic all this time, thank you for making a great music streaming app! As well, thank you fast4x for working hard each week to get RiMusic to where it is.

Is Google deliberately crippling my phone…
... or are notifications just really bad on Android? For background, we've got an old, sick, dog and my wife often needs to get help from me urgently. I'm still running an old Pixel 4a - it worked really well for me until Google crippled the battery and even now it works well enough that I'm not tempted to upgrade. My notifications always seem to be delayed - in batches. I have 3 buildings on my property and each has a Nest doorbell. Some days I can be walking around and I'll constantly hear ding, ding, ding as I walk past each doorbell. Other days I can walk around and hear nothing, and then I'll get 5-10 notifications all at once. Today was a perfect example of why this is so frustrating - I'm sitting at my desk with my phone in front of me. It's plugged in an charging. My phone starts ringing and it's my wife upset that I have not responded to her messages. I go help her with the dog and come back to my phone and sure enough, 8 minutes ago there's a notification from Google Chat, 6 minutes ago there's a notification from Google Messages and 4 minutes ago there's the phone call. The Google Chat and Google Messages notifications never came through - until the phone call came in! I've been through and made sure that all the battery optimisations are turned off for all the apps that I want instant notifications from - but that shouldn't have any impact here - my phone was plugged in. Is this normal Android? (kinda rhetorical question - I've been running Android since my Nexus 4 and don't think this is normal but it feels like it's somehow the "new" normal) I'm not running the stock Pixel launcher - does the launcher get involved in notification delivery at all?

Is there a video or wiki explaining how Android works?
Hello, I was looking to make a custom ROM for my device as a hobby project however I have zero knowledge of Android. I have never compiled AOSP myself nor used a custom ROM for a long time. It would be great if we have a Android wiki like we have Arch wiki Thanks in advance!

The future of unlockable bootloaders?
With all the latest bad news from Xiaomi, where to go to buy a new phone with an unlockable bootloader today? I used to buy Samsung, then moved to xiaomi, now what? Unlock the boatloader is a basic requirement for me as at the very minimum I want root and preferably lineageos down the road.

Apparently Android apps (even in current Android versions) can check for the presence of other Android apps by listing the apps they want to check for in their manifest file. Nothing stops them from listing dozens or hundreds of other apps, and some do exactly that. Up til Android 11 they didn't even have to list the other apps in the manifest. Then Google "tightened" things to be almost as bad. Dumb move, Android.

Alternative to Nvidia Shield
The shield is a great device, but I'm starting to notice some considerable lag at times. Before I factory reset it, is there a good alternative? I have an older Apple TV I'm going to try but I'd prefer to stay Android. Features I'd want are * Android TV * Netflix and Jellyfin support * Powerful / fast * Similar codec support, however only for compatibility. I'm not needing HDR or Atmos etc. Some of my family are deaf so we watch with subtitles and have a simple speaker setup.

> Qualcomm claims that my Samsung Galaxy S25 Plus' Snapdragon 8 Elite CPU is faster than the Intel Core Ultra 288V chip. My smartphone also has 12GB of RAM and 512GB of solid-state storage. In short, it's more powerful than most of my laptops. So why not use it as a laptop? > Why not, indeed, says Google, which has introduced -- at long last -- a native Linux Terminal application in its March 2025 Pixel Feature Drop.

What phone can I switch to that gives the least money to American companies?
I currently use an iPhone, but given the recent attacks made by the US president and members of his administration on my country (tariffs, annexation threats,etc) I am loathe to support any company based out of that nation any longer. Obviously I know that it is likely impossible to get a functional mobile experience with zero US corporate involvement, but what is the least possible I could do and still be practical? A degoogled fair phone device? Something Chinese running a custom rom like lineage os? I want to sell my iPhone and Apple Watch ASAP and get something that won’t have my sending money to the US via my app purchases (store cut), monthly services (iCloud), and my data being used/sold. Thanks!

Can you force android to use 2.4ghz WiFi?
I've got some smart home devices that need to be setup by another device on the same WiFi network, but it has to be 2.4ghz network. My modern android phone insists on connecting to the 5ghz network and so can't complete the setup. Currently, I use an old android tablet that only connects to 2.4ghz to get round this, but it's clunky. Previously I've changed the WiFi network to produce seperate ssids for the two bands, but I'd rather not have to switch these settings around everytime I need to modify something. What I want is a system setting in android or an app that forces my phone to turn off its wireless N capabilities and only use the 2.4ghz band. My searching and reading stackoverflow posts suggest this just isn't possible, but surely that's not true?! It seems like a simple enough option to have! Tldr : how to force my phone to connect on 2.4hgz WiFi rather than 5ghz

FOSS Sports Scores App
I have been using different apps for years to follow my favorite teams and leagues. I used Bleacher Report for a while and then a few others. Problem always is at some point they get enshitified and start covering the pages with ads, sports betting, and send pushy notifcations. I really just want something that will let me see the games being played today and send me notifcations when the games start.

Is there an app that can change what the default browser app is based on which app is open?
