Start at the very top press and hold both fingers and follow through all the way to the bottom.
Basically follow through the motion all way to bottom OR swipe with both to at least mid screen and then flick downward with momentum. Can’t see why it wouldn’t work for your phone 🤔
Samsung phones have so many quality of life improvements over the default Android experience that I don’t think I can get away from them just from software alone (why do you have to scroll down twice to change the brightness on normal Android it’s the most important function in the quick menu)>
Only have to scroll down once but using two fingers. I am using Android 12 Motorola UX. I assume that stock Android would be similar.
I’ve had several Samsung phones over the years and do not like how bloated their apps have become like Samsung Notes, Samsung Health, and such. I liked their software experience when S5 was released much better. Remember Milk Music? 🙂
The only reason to buy a Samsung these days is their top shelf hardware but primarily in. their flagships. Also had hardware issue with last Samsung flagship device I owned and then awful tech support from Samsung to boot.
Moto has really upped their game especially in their Moto G 2023 5G models.(U.S. here) I’ll be sticking with Moto mid-range going forward.
I highly recommend KISS launcher
When paired with the Panels App it is such a nice setup after customizations.
I am so glad that Nova sold to that data mining owner of a company. If they hadn’t I would have still been using Nova and would not have come across KISS launcher.
So fast, so efficient, with a real nice search feature. KISS has brought me great pleasure. Nova I hardly used any of the myriads of features and I was just there for the hype.
Jerboa as a placeholder for Boost. In fact launched the rocket a little bit ago in anticipation.
True but I pair KISS with the Panels App and tuck some widgets into the side bar. Not perfect as I can’t get PowerAmp widget to work. 🙁
Wonder how much the Republican candidates will spend talking about catastrophic climate change? 😅
Why isn’t that rule relaxed until an Android App community is robust enough.
If I were to start a community moderator tools would one use if necessary. Definitely don’t want to pay for an app to do that though. Typically have been a compliant participator but not an overlord previously.
So true but the game changers are on the way Boost for Lemmy, Sync, and I think one I am missing. Hundreds of thousands if not several million potential Fediverse users .
These apps asked for preregistration for their upcoming Lemmy versions and some users may be maintaining Reddit until their app is ready . Some I am sure signed up for Lemmy, KBin, etc.and were discouraged and stayed with Reddit.
I am almost certain over the the next several months the user base will increase but will it increase enough to get decent engagement levels on more of the niche communities.
That is the sizeable advantage has at the moment.
Probably so. But then why are Android and Android Apps struggling for engagement? But more randoms, casuals, just a wider overall demographic will be needed for niche communities to become viable.
The communities I mainly communicated in on Reddit either don’t exist, or have paltry engagement here.
This is why I am keeping my Reddit account active to make posts in these forums to invite others over here to build engagement.
On the large subs it was that but so much on niche subs like AndroidApps.
I know what you mean within seconds my post would be downvoted. Its either a downvote bot or a rude moderator. Lemmy is a breath of fresh air.
Same except for me its BoostforReddit.
I would like to recommend Motorola . Also why are there so many deleted comments already?
KISS launcher
Especially when pairing it with the Panels App
KISS has a small footprint is very fast and really makes my smartphone experience super efficient. I toggle minimalistic on, change search engine to Brave/DuckDuckGo, set my six most used apps as favorites which then show as icons at home screen bottom, assign tags to shortcuts such as favorite websites or tools such as compass, barometer, speed meter, distance calculator, etc.
You can have a tag category show up as a window from the bottom right settings menu.
Kiss also has a very effective search component. Literally the only scrolling needed will be doom scrolling on ones favorite social media app.
Widget functionality could be better but can be supplemented by said Panels app.
I have used hundreds of Android Apps since my first smartphone around 10 years ago and KISS is my most favorite of all (open source or regular) due to how its impacted how I use my phone.
