That’s the first Android phone, the HTC Dream (or TMobile G1). I loved this phone, even if it was chronically underpowered.

Bad wording on my part, I wasn’t disagreeing. My file server has a /files directory because it saves me a few key strokes and because I can.
Is Gobo case-insensitive by default? Typing those seems annoying.
That’s an old image, though - Windows has a C:\Users\youruser setup like /home/youruser for a while now.
I find the %APPDATA% thing way less convenient than ~/.config and I’m quite happy when programs have the “bug” that they still use ~/.config on Windows.
I like that idea of using the different fonts for e.g. Copilot suggestions - reminds me of reading Asterix comics as a kid when they’d use gothic black for the Goth’s speech, etc.
edit: e.g.
There’s kroki as well, which includes Mermaid, Excalidraw, GraphViz, PlantUML, etc.
Well yeah, you need to do the computation somewhere and it’s not doing it on the server so…
Ah bollocks, another trusted voice silenced. Now it’ll be that slight bit harder to find a review that isn’t just parroting stuff from the press release.
Ah, I didn’t know that - thanks
What connection do Chromebooks have to Android? I thought ChromiumOS was based on Gentoo Linux.
Yup, I think a lot of people just use their web browser for everything, and they can definitely just switch. Outside of work, how many non-techies have set up their email to use a native program? Very few, in my experience.
I think documents are sometimes the exception, since there’s a sizable (perhaps older) group that like to use Word for everything.
Oh, that’s LAN - I thought you’d put ian and I was trying to get the joke. Stupid sans-serif fonts.
Thunderbird on desktop, although I don’t love it.
FairEmail on Android.
I’m curious to know the impact of ad-blockers - I didn’t see you it mention in your post or blog, so I’m assuming you tested with stock browsers. Also, did you clear history and data from your Android install since it sounds like you’d normally use that?
I’m assuming that ad-blockers would be a net benefit to both battery and performance, given that in a way it’s an optimisation. The boost from removing data and computation (that the user doesn’t want anyway) must be far higher than the overhead of the plugin, right?
I’d assumed it was servers running on renewable power, although I’m not sure how they measure that. I know some hosting companies and CDNs have that as an option, but I don’t see how you’d know if each server chose that option so I guess it’s more like “servers with green hosting companies”.
Don’t downvote stuff just because you’re not interested in it! There’s no algorithm you’re training, you’re just being rude to people.
Downvotes should be for worthless content and people being dicks.
I haven’t used atuin yet, but I believe the histories from other machines is more like accessible than mixed - you don’t just hit ↑ on machine1 and see machine2 commands.
I used to have some with e-ink displays that showed how full they were, but I always wished I could use them to show a label instead.
I missed the news that K-9 was becoming Thunderbird for Android. I used to use it before switching to FairEmail, I think because development had stalled. It’s a solid choice, hopefully they don’t add too much in like they have with the desktop version.
I had a “T-Mobile MDA Vario II” (HTC TyTN 300) which was similar, and also had a collapsible stylus which lived in a little hole on the bottom. It was Windows Mobile, but it was great having the keyboard fully accessible (without that extra bottom bit the G1 had).
It looked like this, just less German:
