I got the 9 because it has reverse wireless charging and just put a case wkth magnets on it. 10/10 would recommend

We (in the US) pay something like 3-5% more for things to cover credit card transaction fees. If you're not getting rewards for that purchase, you're simply losing all of that money. That's why I use a credit card with rewards, and it's also a reason (alongside the points in this post) that I would support any movement to get rid of them.

No, this is about official support from Google.

Judge James Donato originally agreed that forcing Google to carry rival Android app stores within its own Google Play store, and share its own entire catalog of apps with those stores, would be the best way of undoing the company’s illegal monopoly over Android applications.

there may be two different tracks for Android: stores-within-a-store in the United States, and Registered App Stores everywhere else.

I'm in a similar situation actually. I use MySudo for VOIP wherever I can. It's essentially my spam number just to get codes on, but I've never tested it with WF specifically.

Tello and US Mobile are they best "real" number carriers I have found. $8/mo, and you can pay another service to forward all messages to your extra-US number. You're trusting two parties for it, but I haven't found a better way.

I haven't been able to find one. As a workaround I use gasbuddy in a browser with ad blocking. I get information from them and they get nothing from me.

Would be ideal if there were a better replacement, but it would be hard to get a solid userbase.

OSMAnd is not OSM. OSMAnd and CoMaps are on equal ground as far as using OSM.

IMO OSMAnd has more features which is great if you want them, but I prefer CoMaps for having what I need while feeling simpler. Can't really go wrong here, they're both great.

I don't know the current status but the macos update broke booting into Asahi. Everything is still there, just not bootable. I just haven't booted, let alone updated, macos so I have had no issues personally.
