I liked my Pixel 5, but a Pixel 8 Pro upgrade was free for me. I initially missed the smaller form-factor of the 5, but I quickly adapted to the 8. Getting a TPU case with a built-in MagSafe-whatever and magnetic PopSocket is a great combo.

I am forced to update from Pixel 5 because it won't receive Android 15.

After assembling all my open tab URLs from Firefox for Android that I saved over the past two or three years, deduplicated them, and deleted the garbage URLs, I have over 11,000 URLs I've saved from my phone. 7,000 of them are just from HN alone.

You could open a small number of URLs each day. Here is how I do it on the desktop github.com/chapmanjacobd/computer/blob/main/.config/fish/functions/opentabs.fish on Android github.com/chapmanjacobd/phone/blob/main/.shortcuts/tasks/open-browser.sh and here is how I sort my tabs: pip install xklb && library cluster-sort tabs.txt sorted_tabs.txt

Yeah it's hard to justify the cost of teams with experience in all platforms, not to mention the cost of code ownership itself. I do like coding in Swift anf Kotlin, though!

Never tried Kotlin but it looks like such an improvement from regular Java! Java makes for a great language to learn early on, its verbosity is very pedagogical, but man is it exhausting on the long run. Still kind of hate the fact that Android apps need a full blown JVM, you shouldn't need 12 GB of RAM in a phone to keep several apps alive when multitasking...

I never understand people who can browse like that! I never have more than 20 tabs open at a time on desktop, and 10 on mobile. I recently got the Tree Tab extension thinking it would help me in those moments when I have quite a few tabs, but I've gotten good enough at managing my tab volume that it doesn't even give me much value.

Why I changed the sidebar design? To improve one hand usage on mobile devices, especially on the Android app (play.google.com/st...), to reduce the gray color in design and to make sure content stands out and doesn't depend on sidebar layout.

I changed the way unfeeder.com fetches articles. It's faster, new articles every couples of minutes. It doesn't depend on the Facebook API any longer. I can provide a JSON API for iOS and Android developers.
