jacktherippah, (edited ) in Lemmy, recommend me a good budget Android phone please

As a fellow Vietnamese, I would like to recommend a used Pixel. 6th gen Pixels are pretty cheap right now. Last I checked a used 6 Pro used was around 7m VND. They have flagship hardware and 3 years of updates left. And they’re open to custom ROMs unlike Samsung or Xiaomi. Honestly can’t beat them for the price.

SurpriZe,

Don’t have more than 4 mil. Is Pixel 5 a great choice as well?

jacktherippah, (edited )

Pixel 5 is already end of life according to this. I don’t think it’s a good choice any more. Might be better to look towards Chinese brands then.

SurpriZe,

For example?

  • Star Wars Galaxies, A New Hope launched in July and doesn’t have any of the BS restrictions in place like SWGEMU does. Play on multiple toons, use of macros and scripts, ultimate fun.

www.radio-browser.info

Many, many streaming radio stations from all over the world (some over-the-air, some internet only). Open database, so there’s apps for just about everything.

I just about lost my mind earlier out of frustration for this. I love listening to rap/hip hop and the algorithm makes multiple mixes with the exact same songs every time.

I just typed in “underground” in search and found so much good shit. Not even all rap. There’s all sorts of great music I have never heard!

On Android install InnerTune from F-Droid. Allows you to play Youtube Music for free and no ads.

brambledog,

I was using innertune and will go.back to it when I can convince my wife to stop paying for youtube, but I’m definitely not looking forward to going back to it.

Innertune had issues communicating with Bluetooth and would have loading issues when not on wi-fi.

Also, the app fully breaks and has to be redownloaded if you attempt to use a widget maker for it.

NetNewsWire has done me well on all my Apple things:

I have been using https://spotifyshuffler.com/. This allows you to create a shuffled version of your playlist, then you play through that version once with Spotify’s shuffling disabled.

PresidentCamacho,

Is the idea that it’ll break Spotify preference to play only certain stuff?

Navigate,

The idea is that you don’t rely on Spotify shuffle at all. A separate app reads your playlist, shuffles it once, and puts that shuffled version into your library. Now you can play this new version with the in-Spotify shuffle disabled. Once you’ve heard all the songs, just rinse and repeat.

Thunderbird has RSS feature AFAIK. KDE’s KMail as well.

I’m a fan of Elijah Craig, personally. I’m not a drinker, but that’s my go-to when I decide I want a drink

Apicnic,

To me it’s the best value for price bourbon I’ve found, and it’s very good. I haven’t tried very many of their higher end or limited offerings though.

I got one of their limited runs from a buddy about two years ago. I can’t really say it was better than the standard. A little “hotter”, even, swish which isn’t something I tend to prefer.

fubo, (edited ) in FOSS alternative to... Sending Spotify links?

I know I’m middle aged but … MP3s? A few megabytes isn’t that much these days.

JetpackJackson,

I just didn’t want to look weird/sus plus mp3s don’t always do a preview thing in discord (I know, I’m trying to switch to matrix) so sometimes it makes you download the file But yeah I guess I can just send the file

Sabata11792,

I haven't touched an MP3 file for years. Everything's streamed.

I still touch MP3 because it is compact and we need everything to be stored locally.

Been using free tier Feedly for many years now. It’s “good enough”. Before that I used Akgregator, which did a pretty decent job for a local app.

Other odd RSS adventures: I played with self-hosted Tiny Tiny RSS for a while, and it is actually pretty awesome. It’s automatic filtering and tagging capabilities were amazing. But I got tired of maintaining it. I toyed with NetVibes ages ago – it is a “dashboard” oriented web site, with RSS support. It worked pretty well actually, but the UI is … unusual. It used to be free. Maybe still is. I don’t know. I found myself using the cleaner and simpler “good enough” Feedly more.

It should be pretty easy to move your RSS feed collection between apps/services as most of them support OPML format import/export. So just go ahead and try stuff and see what you like. (Just check first that it supports OPML import/export.)

I believe it’s Android only, but Innertune quickly became the best way to listen to music. Check it out :)
