Go and check the link, but essentially:

• small
• 2023 release (Android 13)
• HEADPHONE JACK (I was almost sold here)
• NFC
• 8GB RAM (that is powerful)
• 256 GB internal storage
• Dual SIM or SIM+MicroSD
• IR BLASTER (whatttttttt)
• LED indicators (front AND BACK)
• fingerprint scanner
• face ID
• FM Radio
• PROGRAMMABLE BUTTON (ok I'm in love already STOPPP)

I mean... this list is mindblowing. So...

What's the downside?

Honestly, you can go and check all reviews... but this phone is virtually perfect for the size, the only issue I have is that the screen is a bit too tiny, 3 inches, and 480p, and I think this will make many people run away.

It should make me look elsewhere also... but where? Any other small phone with a bigger screen is pretty bad, old, etc... and I really needed a new phone, so I realised this was an opportunity to commit to the cause, and buy and hopefully push this form factor from Unihertz to mainstream brands.

Hopefully one day we can get one with a slightly bigger screen, I believe 4 inches and 1080p would be brutal. But for now... I think I've found my new phone. In fact, I bought it 3 hours after knowing its existance.

If you are not sold yet...

Go check reviews on YouTube (example). Honestly, you'll see every reviewer falls in love with the device, even non-small phone lovers. It looks like it performs pretty well, it's decently fast, battery is solid, screen is bright and colorful, the LEDs are really useful, even Face ID (which I'll probably disable) is quick, it does not heat up at all, and even photos are pretty decent...

And it's something like 200 $. Come on. What a deal.

Will report back.

So, what do you think?

I am worried that there is not really a benefit of doing that, just more noise and energy consumption.

There does not seem to exist like a single, complete solution for this that everyone agrees is the way to go... or maybe I did not look hard enough.

How do you do it?

My priorities are:

Top priority

• Turn off

Amazing to have

• Volume controls
• Pause/play

Nice to have

• monitoring state (on/off)

I saw that System Bridge exists, and looks almost perfect aside from the fact that is not even in the AUR (outdated) and is not distributed under Chocolatey in Windows... this makes me think that the project is very much not widely used at all.

So, how do you deal with these things?

How can I kill this evil thing?

This is probably not the place to do it but I figured it would be where I could find someone who fixed it.

I think apps become really relevant in the federated world, as it allows to manage multiple accounts at the same time, in the same place, allowing for quick switching, etc, while simplifying so much workflow (and making server requests lighter too!).

On F-Droid, tho, I see Peertube apps basically being frozen in time. No updates since a long time ago, but Peertube itself keeps getting better and better, so what's up?

Also, don't link NewPipe, I know it allows Peertube videos, but you cannot log in or interact, which is crucial for the survival of the fediverse.
