What kind of battery life do you actually get? I can barely scrape a fully day out of my phone right now so anything similar to that is fine by me!

It sounds so weird to call "a few hours of walking" lazy but I completely get what you mean, and I'm all for it!

I assumed they meant the travel walk was probably within that time then they spent the other hours walking around the shops/market stalls etc. Which is pretty standard where I live! We're not a "walkable city" but we get the bus into town and then spend a few hours walking about buying stuff before getting the bus back. Like OP its doable by bike too, both methods work depending how lazy you're feeling and how many shops you want to go in.

I wasn't aware the calculator app used h.264/5, what relevance is that?

Heroic is amazing. Rather than running the crappy Epic client via Wine, you just install this native piece of software that then launches each game via Wine/Proton/whatever else and pretty much just works every time, complete with things like EAC

Wait, so instead of using tabs in your browser you just... put separate windows on top of each other, and use your taskbar/keyboard shortcut to switch between them?

Curious how they expect this to work for people who aren't even "paying" [with money or data] Meta users. Those people who never signed up for any of their services yet are still being tracked across websites via those social sharing buttons and the like. Are they supposed to pay Meta to not hoard their data from all the other websites, despite never setting foot on a Meta site?

Is "Hey Siri, skip this track" really any better than just, reaching up and tapping your earphone?

That's awesome, never heard of this! I was referring to the stock Fairphones, which are absolutely Google-filled. But if someone is reselling them with all that crap stripped then that project is for sure worthy of recognition.

Their mission is amazing but I'm not going to sit here and pretend any Google-laden Android isn't also ad-laden.

Well, that's fair. You're an absolutely miniscule minority of Android users though
