On my Android phone, switching away from Liftoff to another app usually causes it to unload. So, when I switch back, it loses the scrolling position I had left, which means I have to start again at the top. Other apps on my phone don't do this, and apps used before Liftoff don't get unloaded, so I don't think this is a memory usage issue.

Has anyone else noticed the same?

Would it be possible to have an option to speed up (but not completely disable) animations? On my Android phone, Thunder animations are much slower than everything else in the system, so even just respecting the system setting would be great. Thanks!

Several years ago, I used Blockada, which was frequently recommended. According to some discussion threads, it seems to have fallen from grace.

What ad blocker that doesn't require root do you use? What's your experience with it? Would you recommend it?

Screenshots of Boost for Lemmy included.

Hi all,

I think it would be great to start a weekly/bi-weekly/monthly bean review and recommendation thread. Back in the days of the lockdowns, I found lots of great roasters on /r/Coffee and /r/Espresso, and I think it's generally interesting to see what others are using.

So, tell us about coffees that you've had recently, where they're grown and who they're roasted by, how you're preparing them, and anything else you'd like to share!

If you comment, please also let me know your thoughts on having this as a recurring discussion and how often you'd like to see it.

Cheers!

Is anyone else unable to comment? I've tried posting some comments several times, but I'm not getting past the spinning wheel.

Edit: Ok, it works here. Perhaps it’s related to specific communities? Although I was trying to post on a local community to begin with…

We’ve come full-circle: we went from the volumetric, 3D designs with shadows of the 2000s to everything flat, and now we’re gaining depth and shadows again!

I liked the Saturday APPreciation threads on /r/Android and found them really useful for discovering new apps. How about we get something similar rolling here?

I use private browsing a lot for the automatic site data clearing. Several browsers restrict taking screenshots in private windows, which is only an inconvenience to me. I hope more browsers will allow the user to decide if screenshots are allowed on their own device.

My home ISP does CGNAT for IPv4, but provides native IPv6. I can use IPv6 just fine to access most of my resources, except for one specific server. I can access the server over IPv4 from my home network, and either over v4 or v6 from other networks I've tried. But I can't access it over IPv6 from my home network.

What could be the problem here? Where do I begin to diagnose it

The S21 FE doesn't have an LTPO display, so you can run it at either fixed 60 Hz or fixed 120 Hz; there's no dyanmic scaling. For those of you who own one, what difference in battery usage do you notice from running the display at 60 Hz vs 120 Hz?

Furthermore, the modem in the SD888 is not the most efficient around. How does you battery life compare when you have 5G enabled (and actually connect to a 5G network) vs staying on 4G only?
