If you are on Android, use RedReader. It still works with full functionality as before, except that NSFW subs can't be opened. It's available on F Droid as well.

I knew their update policy was bad, didn't knew it was this bad.
Mobvoi's alternatives always boasted of much longer battery life than Pixel or Galaxy counterparts. The author moans about lack of Google Assistant support and wireless charging but honestly, significantly larger battery life is more than worth any Assistant.
Also, wireless charging might be more convenient but it generates a lot of wasted heat and my Galaxy Watch throttles when charging via WPC mechanism in high temperatures.
One valid criticism is the slow rate of upgrades that this company gives and it's lesser international availability.
Stock android experience is the exception, not the norm, sadly. Some manufactures like Motorola or HMD have a light touch and close to stock but other ones don't. The worst offenders are Chinese brands who twist it so much and without much benefit(Atleast, Samsung's ONE UI is customizable as heck, can't say the same for Realme's).
I think the article mentions it. AOL tried to block it and this to and fro went 21 times before finally coming to a stop. MSN and Yahoo later signed a deal, I think, so that the former will work with latter's contacts properly.
Err, this payment doesn't block ads. It only switches off personalised ads. So, the user is still seeing ads, just not targeted ones. So the site is getting both user's money plus ad money. And technically, I am not sure how privacy preserving this is because you will still need to create an account which technically leaves you vulnerable to tracking.
My first smartphone was their cheap Lumia 520. Yes, it had its limitations (it couldn't natively playback mkv files and no VLC support was there yet; only one paid app offered this basic thing) but the polycarbonate back was good, the battery lived decent enough despite being small and the OS was very smooth.
True, even Samsung budgets still have the 3.5 mm jack. I guess Motorola really wishes folks to purchase their wireless options.
Hardly any proper compact phones are released now. Even Asus has switched to larger sized models with its newer Zenfone series.
Pixel 9 isn't aimed at Pixel 8 or even 7 users. These 2 phones are still very much in software support period and have a decent hardware so as not to upgrade per year. Pixel 9 is aimed at gaining either new users or upgrading very old Pixel users.
Still, two problems persist, the phone still somewhat gets hot and charging is still on the slower side. Even Samsung has jumped on 45 W bandwagon, not to mention Chinese OEMs which can recharge more than twice as fast.
What is the benefit of an ultrasonic sensor over an optical one? Is the former even quicker to respond to input/touch?
