For my own tastes (and budget) the Fold form factor isn't too interesting to me. I like a more compact phone. So I was just looking into the Flip 5 as a possible purchase.
Unfortunately I saw the camera setup is worse than the base S23 on all fronts (main lens, no telephoto, selfie cam). I knew the battery would be a bit worse, but I'm not a heavy SOT so it didn't bother me.
Adding in at least a bit of deserved worrying over longevity and I decided to pass. I really thought this could be the year and if the camera array was a bit better I likely would have pulled the trigger.
I thought leaks had suggested that the phone will be >6" this time around? Has it been confirmed to be sub 6 now?
I was very interested in the 9, but ultimately camera performance and update policy pushed me in another direction.
I had read the >6 rumor a while back so being closer to launch I guess 5.9 is more reliable? The only source the article mentions is winfuture.de and I don't know much about the site
Kind of a related question so I think it can tag onto this post:
I am using sub.rehab to find communities corresponding to subreddits I would visit. My account is made on lemmy.world (also made a kbin account).
So whenever I see a community from .world I can subscribe, but if it's from another instance I am not able to as I don't have an account there (.ml for instance).
Is this the same sort of functionality being discussed as being added to the newest update or is there another means to subscribe to a community in another instance?
Gak
I block the ads, pretty decent experience imo
What doesn't work with that view?
I've noticed the same. Annoying, but better than the alternative. It also stops my non-stop scrolling so that's a positive side effect lol
old.reddit.com still works for me
Thank you! Didn't realize this and was messing around for a while and still couldn't get it set right. Now it's all 🤌

I tried quite a few: Jerboa, wefwef, Thunder, Liftoff, browser (Brave)
Ultimately chose Connect which functions great and has some good customizations I appreciate
Patiently waiting for Sync
I was on the official app a while back then ended up on Tusky. How does Tusky compare to those options?
Yes the gapless hinge and larger exterior display are the main selling points this time around
That app is completely zucked from the start
Can I actually post from Jerboa now?! Edit - Great success!!
Why did you do this to me?
Connect and Thunder seem to work best for me. I'm on .world so Jerboa isn't an option at the moment
Liftoff, Thunder, and Connect for Lemmy are all alternatives
Soon Sync for Lemmy as well!
Asus Zenfone
I'm doing my part!
Bitwarden FTW
