Thank you! I will add them to my list, seems good😁

Awww, hope you make it eventually

I'm just checking my social media apps for any new messages and maybe droify for updates. After checking them in the morning I kinda think to myself that now job is done and any more time I spend of my morning on them is kinda wasted. Checking social media from time to time and speaking with your friends seems kinda healthy, but doomscrolling is kind of a waste after a point (happens if I'm too bored to start my day).

The thing is, after I check all these, I might go in a loop due to boredom (boredom may have many many reasons behind it). When I have tasks to do or I'm in a period that my friends and I are busy, this is more intense. The phone is an easy and portable distraction. All these contribute to an increase of phone usage (currently I'm in one of those situations and phone usage has increased probably by at least 50%).

Aw thank you. I that it's a thing people do here on lemmy so I thought about doing it too.

I see you are efficient by using only 1 app😆

Nice

I did it, but it's my first time doing it😆

Should I change something? (I think I put a lot of info that may be unnecessary.)

Insular (the degoogled open source version of Island) has a page comparing Island, Shelter and Insular

https://secure-system.gitlab.io/Insular/faq.html

I don't know if its updated, but you can pick the ones that fits your needs.

I picked Island because I thought I may have issues with my notifications if I had chosen Insular. (Plus, there was this bug I was talking about and thought that it would fix it. Installing Island wasnt the solution, but I had already spent a lot of time/days setting up my phone multiple times and didnt want to try it again, with the possibility of problematic notifications.)

Yeah indeed.. I too check the site from time to time. I had seen on their last posts that they were thinking of moving out of kbin.social due to the downtimes..

I will try to update you if/when they come back online.😅

and the people who made then happen

I thought it was talking about how to beat those people mainly responsible for the heat we face (like people in govs or big companies) and thus were the reason why those ideas were made.

Those "root checks" are a joke. ~Nobody raises a brow if you are an admin user with root privilages on windows, (desktop) linux or macos. But it's such a huuuge deal when you manage to actually own and use your own mobile device the way you want by breaking free from what they impose on you, ugh...

Any app that doesnt work when you have root access ~shouldn't be used at first place..

Lsposed is a magisk/ksu module that has its own modules too. Like a manager insude a manager giving you even more options.

I would like to help you with various stuff and customizations but I just don't have enough time to explain them all.😅

I'm just gonna list stuff you may find useful:

Apatch (root and magisk/kernel modules manager)

Mrepo (magisk modules manager)

Shizuku

Color blender (to tweak metarial you colors)

Droidify (fdroid alternative)

Aurora store (play store alterantive)

Total commander (closed source root file manager)

Canta (used to uninstall system apps, I just use it to see the descriptions of various apps and disable them)

Smartpack manager (info about the phone and more)

Appmanager (various detailed info about apps)

Hidden settings (settings your rom may not show, closed source)

Island (for dual apps)

Neobackup (root backups, has issues with work profile)

Databackup (root backups, I use it to backup work profile apps)

Sai (installer)

Roundsync (uses rsync or rclone I think)

PrimitiveFTP (to send/recieve files with ftp connections)

DroidFS (to encrypt files)

DiskUsage (to visalise storage usage)

Db viewer (to view databases of apps, closed source)

Termux (temrinal for android, too advanced for me)

UsageDirect (logs app usage)

Motionamate (logs steps)

Neutrinote ce (notes)

Fossify apps (gallery, sms, calendar etc.)

Librera (pdf, epub etc viewer)

Moneywallet (expense/income tracker)

Magisk modules:

• Advanced charging controller

• Busybox for android ndk

• Lsposed-mod (maintained version of lsposed manager, after the original went archived)

• Zygisk mod

Lsposed modules/apps:

• Lucky patcher (hacking apps if you want to)

• Free notificiations to manage notifications

• Matrix rain (fancy effect with matrix background in notification shade)

• messengerEX (to disable adds in messenger app, in case you use it)

And many many more stuff

I was setting up my phone for about two weeks some months ago (the was a bug with xiaomi and work profile)😅

Oh oke oke. I had issues with magisk a few months before I switch. I think there were incompatibility issues between magisk and lsposed manager, so I did a full reset, I upgraded the rom (from a beta version from November 2021 of the rom xiaomi.eu miui 12.6/android 11, I went to xiaomi.eu hyperOS/android13) and installed apatch so that I dont have incompatibikity issues (plus, it hides root much better).

I think it may be based on ksu, but also uses superkeys with passwords or something. I don't know much about its security, you may want to check the issues tab on github or generally the project itself.

Have you tried apatch as an alternative to magisk?

It ~combines rhe advantages of magisk and kernelsu

Amazing! So many options and bands, along with proper descriptions, thank you very much!!

Ayy, thank you for the songs and the thorough analysis!!

There is a band that once had made a song with those lyrics:

Once again we hear them calling for war It doesn't matter what they're fighting for They light the match and watch the whole world burst into flame The story's always the same So tell me, people, are you ready to kill? Behold the propaganda, get your fill A distant enemy is threatening our freedom again How much would you like to spend?

They don't care about the blood on their hands Look at the world, and you will understand They count the money as the innocent continue to bleed They're always planting the seed So tell me, people, are you ready to die Without believing in the reason why? They paint a picture, and the whole damn world is deceived It's all that they ever need

Millions are falling in line And it's just a matter of time Endless destruction will ensure their pockets are lined For all time

No more defending the lies Behind the never-ending war

No, it can't be disguised anymore How they smile as we pay for their war

No more, by Disturbed

What happened Disturbed, did you forget what you were screaming about in the past (in 2018)? They also had some other songs similar to that. Come on guys... that's dissapointing..

(Though they do had some war-glorifying songs before this one, but I thought they had changed their view, matured or something..)

Lets gooooo🔥🔥🔥

Well done!

Yeah cool, no rush, besides it seems like kbin has some issues to solve first😅

Oh indeed, it's down again (yesterday I could read the posts)😬..

is bad even in a ”neutral” way

Yes, they give attention to anything they choose to talk about, so without critisism it can promote it. Plus, it takes attention from anything else they don't talk about.
