Add SponsorBlock and DeArrow in the list. You will not regret it.

Having 2G support doesn’t mean it doesn’t have 4g support. I have a phone which supports 2g 3g and 4g.

Not true. I only know about 6310. It does support 4G. Edit: my bad I was looking at Nokia 6300. Its weird that 6300 has 4g but 6310 doesn’t.

They are making their own BRICS currency again the US Dollars. That’s why they are buying gold.

I use Arch BTW, so no problem with outdated packages. ;)

very cool post

Lineage os has an option for that. Maybe you can do something like that with root on stock.

Yes, bloatware can be disabled easily with Universal Android Debloat

I don’t think this lawsuit is going to make a difference.

Its not a problem anymore. Nvidia Drivers work fine now.

You are mostly right. Its tricky to get into Linux.

• Linux is not for running windows programs. Linux alternative of such programs suffice my need. although some can be installed using wine but its highly likely you will likely run into bug. Some apps such as adobe suite, office 365, etc won’t work at all.
• Those distro recommendation websites are garbage, don’t trust any of them. There are “basically” three main flavours
• Arch
• Debian/Ubuntu
• Redhat

Everything else is just based on them. Like pop os, Mint, Zorin are basically same under the hood. You can make any distro do whatever you want.

What problem are you facing with NVIDIA?. Are you using noveau or nvidia properity drivers?

ar0177417, 2 months ago (edited 2 months ago)

Yep, open drivers have problems but nvidia proprietary drivers work fine. I use it daily. EDIT: Fixed spelling

Its better to dual boot windows for windows programs. I am currently on Artix (Arch without systemd). I just like the OS to get out of my way when I am doing something and upgrade manually myself when i have free time.

Arch wiki is the most comprehensive Linux wiki. Try that.

I am using the aur version and it shows for me. Maybe check stremio settings.

I have Infinix Hot 30. Currently using lineage OS GSI. GSI will work as infinix and tecno are devices by the same company.

I had this issue too. It can be fixed by using alternate way to detect headset and Bluetooth workarounds --> Mediatek in phh settings

ar0177417, 2 months ago

the first options in settings, above network and internet

Try using lineage os trebledroid variant

I have been rooting my phones since android 7. I like rooting my phone because

• it allows me to block ads without a VPN or a DNS (AdAway)
• I can install apps from fdroid like I am installing from google play store, I don’t have to manually install an app.
• I use NeoBackup to backup apps with app data. *I use revanced (I know I can use the non-root version but why install an extra app (microg) that runs in background).
• I can disable tracking/telemetry of individual apps by disabling their activity component.

So, I would say rooting is a big deal for me and banking apps still works.

I think aurora Store (3rd party foss playstore) can do that but official play store can’t.
