    it’s an android app that lets you automate almost anything on your phone/android system. downsides are it’s a pay app, not foss, and fairly complicated to set up at first. upsides are it is almost unlimited with what you can automate. looks like there is a free trial. might be a lemmy-instance for it, (there’s a reddit sub) disclaimer; i haven’t used it for a while now on older android releases.





  • After reading the “issues” discussion from w weeks ago, this is just an idea at this point. The simplemobiletools fork was a mock up for something that sounds like its very much in the planning/ideas stage. you can also go to fossify.org to see another mock up that does nothing right now. You could message one of them, but I think maybe its some MIT software team / group & their just tossing ideas around for a foss hub of sorts.


  • I can tell you really want that to be true, but the bots posting links to “elsewhere” articles with a summary or TLDR that reads like it’s been run thru 15 really crappy language translators & fail to even make sense let alone properly summarize the pertinent details - yeah that’s what drives me away. I’m prolly a fringe user, my primary use is to satisfy my hobbyist/DIY addictions, & I enjoy being able to read & learn in the same place/format. I generally have little interest in the social media/what’s trending or political subs. I used to appreciate seeing occasional posts from the social/politics but they are so toxic & devoid of any conversation that might interest me. I’m really hoping that the humans that are still out in the real world doing amazing things will find their way to federated freedom so I can selfishly return to my daily realization of how little I know. Because those bot posts coupled with all the ignorant hate comments have the opposite effect - I start feeling like there’s nothing left to learn here…
