I turned off my activity history, and I've noticed a needlessly degraded experience on some Google apps, like in Maps where it no longer labels your home location as "Home", but it's a saved location anyway.

It's the exact same.

The Oculus desktop app is a bloated mess. I wish it was just a tray tool that provided what's necessary to connect Oculus Link and use PCVR apps. Instead it pops up a bloody window every time with zombies and what not and does not even allow you to minimize it to the tray.

Not surprisingly, it does all the data tracking that it can for a "text-based conversation app".

Screenshot of the Threads app's privacy section on the App Store. It has the following text: "Data Linked to You. The following data may be collected and linked to your identity: Health & Fitness, Purchases, Financial Info, Location, Contact Info, Contacts, User Content, Search History, Browsing History, Identifiers, Usage Data, Diagnostics, Sensitive Info, Other Data"

I started playing Rainworld, and I really like its survival and mystery elements. The sounds and art is also top notch. I'm also considering picking up the recently released Downpour DLC.

Indeed. I opened the Signal app after a really long time last week and found that they had added a useless Stories feature like WhatsApp. I uninstalled the app since I never used it anyways.

Edit: Looks like Signal stories can be turned off unlike WhatsApp stories. That's a win I guess.

Lol I've been wondering why I'm seeing a lot of duplicate comments recently.

+1 for F-Droid. I always prefer open-source alternatives from there over ad-infested bloatware which the Play Store has a lot of.

Moin moin! Hamburg is a lovely city, I enjoyed it a lot when I visited a couple of years ago :)

I kinda like it, and hope we see more of this. Maybe skeuomorphism is not the best idea for UI elements these days, but for things like icons it makes perfect sense.

Many apps in iOS still use beautifully detailed icons which make for eyecandy without sacrificing functionality.
