I initially held on to the headphone jack but nowadays I've completely stopped caring. My Galaxy Buds 2 Pros are pretty dang good even by audiophile standards and the convenience of TWS is quite nice. For my wired IEMs the 9$ Apple dongle works just fine with my Galaxy S24+. Nowadays some IEMS also have USB-C version and I suspect that this trend will continue. Like it or not that jack will eventually become a thing of the past on the vast majority of consumer electronics, not just on phones.

Y'all would be surprised how many Facebook users there are outside of the west. In my home country of Vietnam Facebook is like Twitter+Reddit+more. It's the most popular social media app. Everyone is on Facebook. The government posts news on Facebook, academic institutions post news on Facebook. Everyone posts official news on Facebook. Hobbyist discussion happens on Facebook. Buying and selling stuff - also Facebook. Wanna watch short form/long form content? Also Facebook. Facebook Messenger is also the second most popular form of communication. But it is to us what iMessage is to Americans. If you're not on Messenger, fat chance nobody will talk to you. There's Zalo which is technically in first place but Zalo is where the Vietnamese government gets to exert its control and it's mostly to conduct business and talk to boomers. It's that bad. Facebook is also very popular in other Asian countries like India, Indonesia, Thailand and the Phillipines, although I'm not sure to what degree.

Nice. I love Gboard. One of the few things Google nails.

Some small but useful OneUI features for you Samsung users'

• Dual Bluetooth audio: Samsung devices can stream audio to 2 Bluetooth devices at the same time which is very cool when you have friends who want to listen in but don't want to share earbuds. I use this very often.
• One time passwords for wifi hotspot: Samsung devices can create a otp for hotspot that only works once and stops working the next time you turn on hotspot. Very useful feature that I use all the time too.
• Bypass charging: If you game with your phone, search for game booster setting in advanced setting and turn on Pause USB PD charging to use bypass charging and save on battery health
• Turn off UltraHDR: On OneUI 7, turn off SuperHDR in advanced setting to stop the screen from brightening whenever you scroll through an UltraHDR video (fuck you for this useless flashbang feature Google and fuck you Apple for defaulting to HDR recording)

I haven't seen anyone mention Gboard yet so I'll say Gboard. Best keyboard on Android.

Y'all are so cynical around here geez.

My gotos for the last 3 years have been Spigen Ringke and Nilkin.

It's still a tiny echo chamber like it was a couple months ago when I cut back on Lemmy use. It can get pretty repetitive and boring to read. I came back to Reddit because the user base was larger and there were more perspectives I could hear from.

I use Samsung's T4510 charger and cable combo. For third party chargers I believe they need to be PD PPS3.0 and the cable needs to be 5A.

California has only counted around half their votes so a popular vote win for Kamala could be a thing.

So this is how a democracy dies...it votes for its own death.

Some devices taper off their fast charging faster than others. It doesn't have to be at 80%. Just as an example you can see the charts in the charging review for the S24 Ultra here: https://www.chargerlab.com/charging-review-of-samsung-s24-ultra/. A fun fact is that since Samsung 45W tapers off so much there isn't much difference compared to their 25W charging. The difference is 10mins at best. Sometimes the 45W can be just a hair slower even.
