Comment on LineageOS 23: Sleek sixteen, streamlined suite, future flow in ~tech
rodrigo LinkTL;DR:
- Google no longer pushes monthly tags and patches to AOSP; and most fixes/security patches are now pushed quarterly, if at all.
- Security patch levels may occasionally lag: we only increment them once all patches are public.
- LineageOS 23.0 is based on Android 16 “QPR0” because QPR1’s source isn’t public yet.
-
- Because of this some headline features (like Material 3 Expressive) will come later, once sources drop.
- Pixel support continues, but with reduced source access, they’re no longer guaranteed, let alone on day one.

Comment on Brazilians don't get dry, minimalist literature. A bit of a rant. in ~creative
rodrigo LinkThat's a harsh, generalizing opinion to have regarding literally millions of people and based in one rejection. Not a genre that I'm into, but off the top of my head I can remember Carla Madeira,...That's a harsh, generalizing opinion to have regarding literally millions of people and based in one rejection. Not a genre that I'm into, but off the top of my head I can remember Carla Madeira, a contemporary that fits this description/style.

There was a rough transition to the current version (I guess in iOS 16?), but after that it got really good and intuitive. I've tried a lot of alternatives (Overcast, Pocket Casts, Castro), none of them better than Apple Podcasts (IMHO, obviously).

Thunderbird, the second best option, is heavy and ugly (although it works fine) and other than that, there’s basically nothing comparable. Such an overlook on two of the most basic apps. I suspect for most people these apps were replaced by web-based ones, so no one cares.

Maybe spreading your purchases among a bunch of stores is better privacy-wise than concentrating all of them in a few or only one?
