I like how you've chosen to keep it free of apps

redlemace@lemmy.world · 7 pts · 1y (1 reply)

I tried .... but does not work with folding screens, it requires rolling screens and those are not very practical

SubArcticTundra@lemmy.ml · 5 pts · 1y

True. I too keep most of my apps away in a drawer

Mustn't it get tiring having to search through the apps alphabetically?

Also what does the button do?

Moonweedbaddegrasse@lemmy.world · 5 pts · 1y (1 reply)

Nah I find I can get to everything quicker. The way the menu on the right pops out the names of the apps when you touch it has to be seen to be appreciated.

The button can do anything. I have it set to open my actual phone, i.e. to make a call.

Moonweedbaddegrasse@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 1y

I like it that way. Get more on the screen. Icons look pretty but are rather pointless with this layout.

SubArcticTundra@lemmy.ml · 4 pts · 1y

I put an analogue clock on mine too so I don't have to wear a watch on my wrist anymore. Idk my brain just finds analogue clocks easier to interpret (probably thanks to them displaying the time geometrically). I wish Android let you put widgets on the lock screen too

SubArcticTundra@lemmy.ml · 1 pts · 1y (2 replies)

Interesting. When/why did you choose to take on religion?

ArgumentativeMonotheist@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 1y (1 reply)

I was reintroduced to religion after 20+ years of disliking anything related to it by my now wife. My own suffering just made it impossible for me to believe in a kind Creator (the so called 'problem of evil') since childhood and I was too literate and intellectually competent to eat up some Christian creed nonsense (confession doing anything good for your soul, 'faith without works', God being one but somehow also three [and there's a dove involved?]). 😅

I'm sorry that you also have to deal with it. Tracking helps to hold a routine and at least for me to look back and see trends - even lows eventually pass so this current one also eventually will.

Agreed. Fortunately mine has a clear cause and I'm working day by day to remove that cause

Hey, thanks! It's a photo I took almost a decade ago in New Zealand. Here's a link.

I also have a second "swipe" to the homescreen (with about as many apps), but I make a point to keep apps installed to a minimum, and everything else is not used commonly enough to justify a place on the homescreen. 95% of my app opens are probably Firefox, haha.

SubArcticTundra@lemmy.ml · 2 pts · 1y

Using your homescreen as a bookmark screen (FF lets you make shortcuts) is definitely a life hack

Pilferjinx@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 1y

I'm not sure what you mean exactly. But I can scale the app rows up in the settings. I don't have an issue though, but my app drawer has bigger icons if that's what you mean. Also I think I disabled the dedicated app bar.

6.5/10, the text (both the app title and the top bar) is unreadable, and do you really use that few apps?

ArsonButCute@lemmy.dbzer0.com · 2 pts · 1y

I'm easily distractable so I have the scale cranked up and the color cranked down so I only do what I opened the phone to do. I actually have a dual screen device (extra display on extras of folding phone) so I don't use the top bar when I'm not in app, otherwise I'd care more that it wasn't legible on the homescreen.

SubArcticTundra@lemmy.ml · 1 pts · 1y (1 reply)

Woah that's unique! Do you have a tiny phone or did you just crank the scaling up?

ArsonButCute@lemmy.dbzer0.com · 1 pts · 1y

Huge phone, big app icons.

I try not to use apps other than my browser for privacy reasons, but also I'm super easily distracted so I try to keep the apps I freauently use on my home screen and HUGE so I don't get distracted by other apps or bright colors.

urheber@discuss.tchncs.de · 1 pts · 1y

It's bad android ports of PC flash games. I'm not sure what they're trying to simulate, because half of them didn't work. But I assume, it's the former, although there are many genres. Mostly it's just an excuse to pump ads.

home screen with purple stars background and multiple folders

I have nearly 300 apps, some I access some of them through MIUI's drawer but most are here.

Also I hope I get around to sort it all around again as the folders includes app that I use multiple times a day and I don't access as much the home screen apps. And I should delete that UCCW widget, I don't read theses infos anymore

It's an alarm that requires a QR code to be scanned to stop ringing. Otherwise I just disable it and fall back to sleep, even with the QR code I have to put it far away to make sure not to go back to bed
