No, you don’t. Element is a client for Matrix and Matrix doesn’t use phone numbers.

+1 for Droidify, it’s great. Used Neo Store before as well but Droidify is better IMO.

Tbh this is kinda making me want to spin up a Lemmy instance to try out this tool haha

This is great! I was actually wondering why they weren’t doing this already.

What Android version do you have? Nowadays Magisk is used to root devices. There’s a guide on how to install it on the GitHub I linked. Before you can install that you need a custom recovery like TWRP tho. Keep in mind installing a custom recovery requires you to completely wipe the device and install a new rom, so you’ll probably have to use a custom rom like LineageOS and you’ll need to backup important files. Also, the files you need to install for TWRP and LineageOS are specific to devices, so you’ll need to look on their respective websites (I linked both) if your tablet is supported.

Godot is honestly just so much nicer to use. I switched to it back in the day because of that after using Unreal and Unity. I didn’t even know what open source was at that point, I just liked it more.

I think the difference is that hardware, like a 144 hz monitor, isn’t really making you better at the game, it’s just that what you had before was making you worse. If you get a 144 hz monitor and your aiming gets better, that’s not because the monitor made you better but because the 60 hz monitor, you had before, was holding you down.

I actually have that in my library because I bought the Index but haven’t played it yet because I wanted to play the first 2 games first. I didn’t play the first game for very long tho because I got stuck at some point early into the game and haven’t felt like continuing yet. You can also really feel the age of that game, controls and that kinda stuff. Not sure if I should just punch through that game or just say fuck it and play Alyx.

Did the US ban all phones from China? I thought it was just Huawei.

There’s a difference?

A lot of Xiaomi phones have custom ROM support, I also got a Nothing Phone 1 recently and that has custom ROM support as well. Google Pixels are far from the only ones.

This is just a Miui thing, this is issue isn’t present on custom ROMs like LineageOS

Proton works on any distro

I use LineageOS, so I’ll have to wait until there’s a new version based on Android 14. It has some pretty cool looking stuff tho, like the changes they made to the back gesture. Definitely excited for it.

Pretty sure it just works. GNOME actually has a specific page in the settings for Wacom tablets.

Does anyone know if there’s a text editor with Material v3 design?

I don’t think so. People didn’t switch to privacy friendly messengers because everyone was using WhatsApp, even though there was a benefit to it, so I don’t see why people would switch to a TikTok messenger when there is no benefit to it at all.

There’s a setting to put them into seperate sections and aside from that, Element isn’t the only Matrix client. And for group DMs you can just make a group chat.

idk what you mean by that… you can send messages or files to eachother, just like on discord. What else is there?

DMs are one of Matrix’s main features

That’s because it’s open source

Using no password manager and a different password for every account would be the most secure option but most people (including me) would be too lazy for that. Instead I used to use the same password everywhere, which is obviously very unsafe. I then switched to Bitwarden, where I can just generate a secure password for each account and I can access them all with one password. I still need to remember only one password but it’s a lot more secure than using the same one everywhere.
