Is it even worth going from Apple to Android?

Is it even worth going from Apple to Android? - Lemmy.World

I’m considering leaving Apple for Android for a very long time now. On my shortlist I have the Fairphone Gen 6 and the OnePlus 13. Other options are not possible. I don’t want Google or Samsung hardware, or any other manufacturers that make it difficult to unlock your bootloader. One of the reasons is the freedom to install any app I want on my device, because it’s my device. But with the news about Google forcing developers to share their personal credentials it makes it difficult for me to go to Android. Basically Google is trying to kill sideloading. Should I even move to Android now or is Android with the limitation just like iOS?

Dating apps are killing my self esteem and I feel like a complete moron - Lemmy.World

I’m 33M and last night I downloaded Tinder again after deleting it for the 100th time. In a few hours I got 16 likes, but not a match. So I decided to go ahead and pay for one week to see these matches. Literally all of them were fake accounts. Not a single one of these 16 were real. I broke down in tears, because my dating life hasn’t really been good. As a POC it’s even more difficult. Then, as the idiot I am, I went ahead and spent money just to find out all of it is just a scam. I don’t know how to deal with this anymore. Meeting in real life is basically non existent in this day and age. I’m just so over with life itself. My self esteem is completely down the gutter. I wish there was an easy and painless escape out of this life.

PSA: F**k Proton Drive - Not a single way to export media! - Lemmy.World

Sorry, I have to vent right now. I am really sad that I will probably lose my pictures of 2024. I have a Proton Drive subscription, but it’s been giving me a lot synchronization problems. I won’t go into detail on them, because I have already spent so much time with Support to find a solution. There just isn’t any and it’s unclear they will ever fix it. So I decided to cancel my subscription on Proton Drive at least. Turns out it is practically impossible to download my media from Proton Drive. This is my sixth attempt downloading media and it keeps getting canceled close to the end. There is no other export option than to manually select media, download them through the browser and pray that it will finish. I tried with 500 items, as support recommended me. It didn’t work. So I worked my way down to 400, now to 300 and it keeps failing. I don’t know how to get my pictures away from this terrible Drive app. It’s not doable to work in very small batches. I don’t have this time on hand and Proton can’t offer any solution either. I cannot even downgrade my subscription if it’s using up more than the 15GB storage that they offer. After I find a way to export all my media, I will close down my Proton account. This is not the way of doing business. In the best I managed to easily download all my media from Google Photos and iCloud. I regret leaving iCloud and at this point, just invest the money in self-hosting solution. Never Proton Again
