This must be some weird American thing. I’ve gotten pixels on contract before in my country and I can OEM unlock and flash them no issue. If you don’t pay the cell carrier will just blacklist the IMEI. They don’t lock down the device itself.

Aegis is for Android, Ravio is an iOS app.

Basically any Fossil / Skagen (they’re the same thing) Hybrid (meaning e-ink) watch will work with Gadgetbridge. I personally have the Fossil Machine Gen 6 Hybrid which works great. Ignore the ‘Alexa’ bit, that does nothing via Gadgetbridge (and in fact you can just flat out remove that ‘app’ in the GB app). Heart Rate and Message/Notification/Call control functions all work fine. Step tracking works, but sleep tracking does not (Fossil doesn’t have it done on the watch, it’s done in their app, so until/unless GB replicates that functionality it won’t work).

I use a Fossil Hybrid watch with gadget bridge. Works really well, though one caveat is that while you can read and dismiss messages on the watch, you can’t reply from it. This isn’t a problem for my use case, but YMMV. The couple weeks of battery life is a great plus, though. (E-ink screen)

Wait why the hell is lemmy.world federated with Meta anyways? That seems… stupid?

The discussion thread for Fedora specifically stated that the change was requested by Red Hat, as well.

Especially with Red Hat’s current shenanigans that just recently happened. I can’t see how anyone thought this was a good idea OR good timing for it.

Try Organic Maps on F-Droid. It seems to have no anti-features and is pretty solid in general.

That’s truly odd, I’m running a Ryzen 5600G and a 6700XT and the game is rock solid (Fedora 38, Gnome, Wayland). Runs great on Steam Deck as well. I wonder if the RX580 is the culprit? If MESA is up to date, try a newer kernel for updated Radeon driver? (I assume as Ubuntu 22.04 is LTS that you’re on an older kernel)

Well, I originally used Jerboa as it does as well, but with the current version problems I had to do something else until it’s fixed.

Yeah, I have two Lemmy accounts (one on Lemmy.ml and one on Lemmy.world, since Lemmy.ml won’t let me add nsfw instances to my subscriptions list for whatever reason) and I’ve had to start using Thunder as my app for Lemmy.world and Jerboa for Lemmy.ml til this whole mess gets sorted out.

Thunder, which is on the IzzyOnDroid F-Droid repo is a decent Lemmy Android app that plays well with lemmy.world currently. It also supposedly has an iOS version.

Yeah, but beans have a ton of fibre and that prevents the refined carb blood sugar spike as it takes a lot more time to digest.

F-Droid does their own builds of apps, they don’t use APKs released by devs. So updates from them are down to however long they take to get it done. If you want faster updates, you can add the Izzy on Droid Repository to your F-Droid client, as they update from the releases on GitHub and Jerboa is available there as well, and updates more quickly.

Even so, breaking Jerboa app access to every lemmy instance that isn’t lemmy.ml is a bit of a big oops. Especially during a period of tons of new users who may not understand what the problem is. Hopefully steps can be taken in the future so that it doesn’t happen again.
