Should I buy a Pixel or a Samsung?
  • Haven't had a samsung phone since the note 3, but I remember having issues with unlocking the bootloader, I think you had to use some 3rd party tool because samsung provided no guide in their manual. With nexus and pixel phones it's really easy so them I can definately recommend.

  • Any tips for first century?
  • The gels I use have a recommended dosage/intake schedule written on them, but my advice would be to pack at least a small amount of "real" food. If it's hot it could be a good idea to add some electrolytes to your water.

  • What do you use for outgoing smtp?
  • Love it. Heard about it from HN some years ago and been using it since. The guy who runs it is super friendly and aswers mails quickly too. And yes, it's super cheap, I'm using the "usage based" pricing or whatever it's called.

  • Data saving feature?
  • No yet I think. It' probably best to check the github page for any feature suggestions and add one if it's not already there. Remember that the app is still only in alpha.

    Yamaha SR400 Tire Change
  • I change all my tires myself, my best tip would be that of you're using a lot of force, instead of sweating and swearing, take a step back. With the correct technique it should be fairly painless. Same goes for bicycle tires aswell, those I'm usually able to do with just my thumbs and a lot of patience.

    Thinking about donating, awkward question

    Hello everyone!

    I'm having a hard time making this post as I've been so thankful for this awesome instance and the people in it and don't want to sound ungrateful or start any unnecessary drama or controversy.

    I'm thinking about setting up a recurring donation through opencollective but first wanted to try to make sure that I'm not supporting something that I'll later regret.

    I've been reading some worrying reports of sensorship from some of the major instances and political affiliations of some core people in the Lemmy project.

    I'm of course all for everyone being able to voice their opinion (ofc. excluding harrasment, personal attacks etc.) but sensorship of critical posts (from reliable sources) about any organization/state/nation is kind of a dealbreaker for me. I sincerely hope that these reports are false.

    The mastodon.world code of conduct starts with the goal: Provide a friendly, safe, and welcoming environment for everyone regardless of gender identity or expression, sexual orientation, disability, personal appearance, body size, race, ethnicity, age, religion, nationality, political affiliation, or other similar characteristic.

    Which sounds fantastic, but I'm interested in hearing if people have experienced any kind of censorship or other weird meddling with posts made on this instance or the mastodon.world one?

    -Edit- Just wanted to clarify one more thing (sorry for the long post): I have NOT heard any reports of such activities in this instance (lemmy.world)
