I wish Kbin allowed disabling picking the blurb’s body of text X’D

Any with good hardware as long as you can switch to stable and community-made ROMs.

Can’t disagree, UI still hurts the eyes, and I’ve been using it since 2021. "<.<
Still, so far, it appears legit through comments I saw from quite a few developers and users.

Bandcamp, Supraph Online, Ototoy, Uta 573, Steam and GOG’s OSTs and Apple’s iTunes store have been my to-go options. No DRM, no worries. Just avoid Apple’s music subscription, as it is DRM’d.

By this logic, demos from GOG could be posted too, since both are appetizers for something else (in Prime’s case, an appetizer for the paid service), and both can be claimed.

Prime is a paid subscription, so users would need to pay to be able to get the game.

If you like reading books, comics, etc, maybe Librera Reader?

Dunno how it is on Google Play, but it’s available FOSS and DRM free outside of it:

(Translated copypasta from the Portuguese community, yeah, but since not many English speakers understand Portuguese, worth doing)

Dunno the site, but one thing I do is to go to a site known as “AppSales” and to hide whatever titles I find with MTX with Ublock Origin filters. The process is a chore, but at least, each title needs to be hidden once and only once.

And sure, this is considering that the person uses only Google Play. I, for one, prefer to seek games in stores like Humble Bundle (owned by IGN), Itchio, and so on.

Duolinguo feels more like a very annoying ad than a learning tool, often under-explaining what it tries to teach while heavily penalizing and shaming the user for getting things wrong.

What I would suggest, other than hiring an actual teacher, would be to immerse yourself in works from their language, such as music, comics, books, movies, and so on. Also, Spain’s Real Academia Española has a dictionary+conjugator site that is VERY helpful, even for “dialects” such as the Latin America variations (link for the tool is dle.rae.es). Finding someone to try to talk to in Spanish may also help, although getting to know some of the grammar beforehand is advised.

Now, as for either free or FOSS programs specifically for learning the language, sadly, I’m not aware of any.

Opa

Olha, estou confortável com usar pelo navegador então nem fui atrás de aplicativos.
Mas ao que tudo indica, o Kbin permite gerar um feed RSS, então pelo menos publicações podem ser vistas em outros serviços.
E imagino que, tal como a concorrência, tenha um API público próprio, então talvez tenha aplicativo próprio também.

On the plus side, this gives people plenty of time to tackle their ever increasing backlogs, and also to give companies more reasons to put out a functional product in order to compete with all the kilometric backlogs people already have.

Not a stats guy myself. At most, I get trophies out of something that feels a bit like OCD. Ultimately, I just want to have fun with my games, and not to boast them around. And tbh, one of the reasons I started dropping Steam was precisely the enforced social features (still use it, but now I’m finishing more games than I get instead).

Same as the past 10 or so years, from what I can tell.

You also need to find instructions specific to your device on how to unlock the bootloader, and a TWRP specific to your device. From there, you do a clean flash through TWRP (erasing certain partitions and then installing the new ROM), and then, you should be good to go.

First, I’d suggest flashing a community system ROM. OEM systems are both very bloated, and stop being supported much earlier than community ones, so they’re not ideal unless you need to use it with some banking app or the sort. And if you don’t need Google’s services (de-Google, anyone?), I strongly recommend going for a vanilla system instead of a Gapps one.

Now, as stated in MargotRobbie’s comment, one good use is as a media player. If you can sideload stuff like VLC and Librera Reader, you should be covered.

You can also use it for some lighter gaming, if that’s your thing, as there’s plenty of emulators, wrappers and engine implementations for Android.

You can also use it for running servers, if you do this sort of stuff.

And if you like to test around with softwares, a spare Android device is pretty good to have.

Got a gaming laptop some months ago, and it is actually very powerful indeed. But it came with Win11 by default, only requiring the final setup. Now… How can a system lag a decent laptop so much.

Needless to say, it didn’t take much for me to decide to swap for good ol’ Mint Xfce, and even try out a few other Linux systems, and now, pretty much everything runs flawlessly, at most requiring to avoid using the ultra settings.

But indeed, Windows is bloat incarnated, and it only gets worse. So much so it even feels like Win10 on a VM can clog the whole system. Weird how that doesn’t happen with Win7, no matter how long I leave it open on a VM.

No meu notebook antigo, Ubuntu demorava pelo menos 5 minutos para iniciar. Eu literalmente deixava ligando e ia fazer alguma outra coisa. Já com Xubuntu e Mint Xfce na mesma máquina, esse valor consistentemente caia para 1 minuto a 1 minuto e 20 segundos.

Achei que “i3” fosse de “Intel i3”… e.e"

Desktop environment Gnome é bem pesado. Recomendaria tentar usar algum sistema Xfce, já que é, até onde sei, um dos mais leves.
