I been using android since version 2 and never encountered this. I guess it depends on the device a lot, as I’ve worked a lot in the mobile industry I’ve tended to have the more powerful devices.

Which makes sense, smart phones being small computers and all, the slower ones are slow sometimes and the faster ones tend to be faster.

Androids diversity has always been it’s strength and weakness

This is a good question.

Been wondering the same thing, upvoted for visibility.

Let’s hope we get an answer.

Yeah that’s true. There’s a link in MSConfig to the right screen in task manger.

First place I’d look.

Run MSConfig and see what’s running on startup.

Turn off any services you don’t want and any programs you don’t need. I suggest hiding Microsoft services unless you’re confident, it’s easy to break something and they’re unlikely to be causing that.

That damn algorithm. You send a dic pic to one celebrity and you’re being bombarded for life

This is why I use waterfox

The reason is because of the bias in the studies themselves.

For example, there’s more studies showing that internet addiction is bad for teenagers because more studies have been run on teenagers.

Addiction of any kind of harmful to all age groups. The ways in which it impacts people depends on their life circumstances. For example, older people are more likely to lose a job or a marriage due to addiction than a teenager is, that’s not because of the nature of their addiction.

The simplest explanation is that some teenagers are depressed or otherwise struggling and turn to social media and internet because that’s what they have to help them cope. It’s a natural correlation, this study is saying that we don’t have the evidence to imply causation.

It’s easy for some people, especially those unfamiliar with online activities and particularly those who don’t value online activity, to see the correlation and blame. This is really helpful as it means they can avoid addressing the cause of the initial depression.

Not really achieving a degoogle that way though, they’re still getting all their tracking data

Another approach would be to have Firefox remember the passwords for a small number of sites, while deleting cookies after each session

My solution…

Use waterfox with cookies turned on for a small number of websites.

Use Firefox with automatically wipe for everything else.

Sync on android has this function. I blocked YouTube and it’s associated domains.

Also going to block this one, this story is such bad journalism.

Middle mouse click on the folder will also open all bookmarks in that folder. It’s how I begin each working day

I really really wanted to use Jerboa. I love Jerboas and I love FOSS.

But I tried sync today and it’s just better.

Really disappointed at the pricing model but I’m just ad blocking it in protest of the insane pricing.

As an app though, I’d happily buy it for a reasonable price given the quality.

This is clearly a job for tasker!

This is similar to what got me started using tasker, now it does a few dozen jobs for me.
