I like:

• customizable swipe left/right gestures,
• swiping to close a post,
• being able to set the font size of the different parts of the post list,
• different display formats for different communities,
• switching between accounts easily,
• the markdown hints in the editor,

I don’t think any of these are unique. I just like this implementation.

I don’t know.

I’m pretty basic:

1. Sync
2. Chrome
3. Reddit
4. Antenna Pod
5. Guardian newspaper app
6. Google Play Books
7. Libby

I have a Pixel 8 Pro. My previous Pixel (a 4XL) barely lasted a day with low/moderate usage. The P8P ends each day around 50-60%, has a pretty good camera, and has good enough performance. I feel like the UI responsiveness has improved over time, but that’s probably my imagination.

It’s probably to stop third party apps from screenshoting the banking app.

• All duplicate tabs, bar the most recently used copy, would be archived.
• This feature joins a toggle to automatically archive inactive tabs.

A tablet is nice because it’s a bigger screen. I like reading ebooks on them. (plz don’t tell me to get an e-reader)

A watch is nice because it means you can ignore your phone, but still reply to notifications. I like the more accurate step count. I’d really like a device that counts my lengths when swimming too, but I haven’t had a chance to use one yet.

In both cases I’ve gotten devices that have more battery than I expect. I rarely found myself in a situation where charging was a hassle.

Ara was pretty cool. I really like the idea, but I was never clear on what the mods would contain.

A couple are obvious: biggest batteries and fancier cameras, but what then? I can see enthusiast stuff like an IR camera, and maybe some nonstandard radios. But is that enough to appeal to most consumers?

What kind of “oh” are we talking about? A sexy “oh”? Or disapproving? Surprised? Or like a late night comedian?

I’ve been using a dbrand case for around a year. I like it.

Unlike the other commenter, I do occasionally take the case off. I’ve noticed no ill effects.

Words would be so much easier to understand.

That’s a great recommendation. I tried Paprika and a couple of others. Paprika is winning so far.

I grabbed it yesterday. It does a great job of pulling recipes off sites.

I’m trying it out now. It seems pretty great.

I’ll give it a shot. Thanks!

Thanks! I’ll take a look!

Their best simply wasn’t good enough.

That sounds really frustrating. What kind of phone is it?

It looks like a pretty minor change, but I appreciate it nonetheless.

Yeah, I’d like to use the network, but the reviews are pretty bad. That and the lack of UWB makes it seem pretty weak.

I’m impressed how el Reg fleshed out a pretty sparse story with a bunch of relevant (self) links.

I like Sync. It’s fast and I find it really easy to use.

That sounds like an awesome feature, but no, I don’t have it. And I’m not sure I ever did.

Magic Eraser is pretty hokey. Every time I use it, I need to wait for a while, and then I get a smeary result that I don’t want.

I charge my P8Pro once every two days. It’s magical.

I was just grumbling about this today. It’s one of those little changes that might help someone, but interrupts a flow that worked well for me.

What wasn’t confirmed, though, is whether first-person will feature in any of the main modes, or if it will be just limited to the game’s Unreal Editor.

Seems significant.

I play Fortnite cross platform with Switch and PC. The Lego mod is open world. I’m not sure it’s playable on Linux.

The Fusion sounds neat.

Square Home is an old Windows Metro style launcher. It seems like someone’s passion project.

I like that

• It supports widgets
• Tiles are colorful and easy to find. I find it easier to use than the default Pixel launcher (ymmv).
• It supports folders on the home screen.

That photo editor looks great! Thanks!

Can you recommend a good one? I got one a couple of years back and it is sloooooooow.

This item isn’t available in your country.

The text lines up with the recipient’s text bubbles. It’s on the left, and it’s left justified, so it’s under the other person’s messages, rather than mine.

I could have sworn the old UI had the text entry closer to the right.

They definitely are!

I think Facebook Messenger has this feature, so they’re probably just playing catch-up. To a feature nobody wants.

just when you thought Uber couldn’t get any scummier

What smart features did you enjoy?
