Bought a new phone. Transferring stuff with the Samsung utility worked quite OK. The only apps which are completely copied over including all history and even the notification sounds:
signal
mastodon

None of what I’ve said here should be taken as a defence of #capitalism BTW, it’s simply an observation of actual reality that so called “free market conservatives” are rarely capable of even recognising, let alone dealing with.

Mistä johtuu että kaikki isot nettipalvelut tuntuvat olevan matkalla kohti järjettömyyttä? Lintula on oma lukunsa, mutta kun pitkästä aikaa kokeilin käyttää Amazonin nettikauppaa, tuntui se olevan täynnä huijausyrityksiä enkä löytänyt sitä mitä etsin. Jäi nettiostos tekemättä.
