Manufacturer skins have long provided customisation for the Share menu. The stock experience has never been good.

Maybe that’s it. My dad’s current phone does run an old Android version, so that might be why local backup restore worked. The WhatsApp version was up to date though. I can confirm local backups work on Android 8 and Android 11.

So did I, about 2 weeks ago, for my dad. It worked. It’s unlikely that anything changed in a week

They do, but they don’t explicitly allow restoring from local backups directly within the app anymore. However, if you manually move the backups to a new phone or whatever and then fresh install WhatsApp on that phone, you will be prompted to restore messages from the local backup that’s present.

I don’t try to mess with their cloud backup scheme, I import the local backups manually instead. Their cloud backup is so slow and their chat transfer feature is so buggy.

I hate these types of ads too, and they’re so common.

Also there are some ads which make the normal 5sec skippable video ads more like 30sec skippable ads. They’re usually game ads, where they show you a skippable ad after 5 seconds, then they make you play a mini-game of sorts for 10+ seconds and then it shows you a splash screen with the name of the game which you’re only able to skip after 5 seconds. Wastes so much time.

New meme just dropped

32GB!? These things have a lot of storage now.

Overpopulation.

I use Nova Launcher because I’m used to it and there’s really nothing that still can replace it. There are plenty of similar launchers, but none that’s as feature rich as Nova. People love to hate it because it has been acquired by an analytics company, but I have data disabled for Nova Launcher, so it can’t really do anything. Even on other older phones that don’t have the option to disable data for Nova Launcher, it hasn’t sent a single KB of data in months. I don’t think it’s a problem.

Lemmy is far, FAR from a representation of the general public.

ReVanced also has the ability to remove the current BS YouTube video quality selector and restore the old resolution selector.

I’ve known about NewPipe for a long time but I’ve never really wanted to use it because of the vast amount of missing features. It might be alright for people who don’t use YouTube very often or want to preserve their privacy at all costs but I can’t use it.

I also can’t stand the official YouTube client, not necessarily because it’s so bad, but because ReVanced simply has so much more QoL features that I can’t live without now.

You think that’s going to stop them from doing whatever they’re doing?

Except only harm people who come from search results to find a lone solution for a problem that’s since been deleted.

Bro got exposed by Google

1. This is not mildly infuriating. This is extremely infuriating. India has been making education more of a business than a social right for some time now and that has claimed many lives.

2. Maybe provide a source from media organisations that are not this dramatic, actually provides context and in a language 99% of people here can understand…

3. Don’t fucking use the clickbait YouTube title. Maybe type an actually relevant title!?

But that just requires more effort and more work for the moderators. It’s better to stick with other platforms that already specialise in image hosting who will moderate their content themselves too.
