Just a few examples I use on my S23:

  • Hiding the alarm and VPN icons from the status bar
  • Charging the battery to only 85%
  • Rearranging/deleting the camera mode favorite buttons (Photo, Night Mode, Video, ...)
  • Creating folders in the app drawer of the default launcher
  • Option to customize the long press of the power button (I set mine to the flashlight)

    I've been using Kagi for a few months now. Before that I used Brave Search. With Brave search I had to use the g! bang every few searches. Now with Kagi I have maybe used it five times in total. It has so much better search results!

    Ich habe seit Kurzem einen Glasfaser-Anschluss. Den alten DSL-Vertrag habe ich durch den neuen Glasfaser-Anbieter kündigen lassen (inkl. Rufnummernmitnahme), er läuft aber noch ca. ein Jahr - ich muss so lange auch noch nichts für den Glasfaser-Vertrag zahlen.

    Ich weiß, dass man bei einem Mobilvertrag seine Nummer schon x Tage vor Vertragsende mitnehmen kann. Aber wie ist es bei der Festnetznummer? Muss ich da bis zum Vertragsende warten? Dann würde bis dahin eine einsame Fritzbox am Telefonanschluss rumdümpeln und nichts anderes machen als als DECT-Basis zu dienen.. Oder kann man so was wie eine vorzeitige Portierung beantragen?

    I'm using Qobuz. Since it is a rather small service, I just hope it is more private than the "big players" like Spotify/Apple Music. But the main benefits of Qobuz are the audio quality and the (afaik) highest payment per streamed song for artists.

    I was a Nexus/Pixel user for a very long time (until the Pixel 5). But there is no more small Pixel so I "had" to switch to Samsung. The Pixel 8 could be an option although it is not really high end - I'd like to stay with 3 cameras for example.

    I have been an Android user for 13 years now. After using almost every Google service possible I am going down the privacy rabbit hole lately. Gmail -> Proton Mail, Chrome -> Firefox, Keep -> Notesnook, Google Search -> Kagi, ...

    I am currently using a Galaxy S23 with as few Google apps as possible (and focussing mainly on open-source apps). I am familiar with rooting (I was a CyanogenMod user back in the days), but today I want to use the phone without tinkering and problem solving. I also like to use a smartwatch and banking apps, so GrapheneOS is a no-go unfortunately.

    So it is "Stock" Android (or Samsung's Android ) vs. iOS for me. Is it better (in terms of privacy) to use an iPhone or stick with an Android phone with an system wide ad-/tracking Blocker (I use Adguard)? It seems there are more privacy-friendly/open-source apps on Android.

    No, because a cow has to be impregnated and their baby is taken away (and either killed (male) or is also going to be a milk cow (female)) just for you having some pleasure.
