Great news if this can be developed into a universal covid vaccine with no side effects that everyone can take

I fully realize OP isn’t trying to start a phone war, but there seems to be a few misconceptions in his original post, like hinting on something that do not exist in Android Auto when in fact AA has many of those features built in, that make me cringe a little. I just feel it would be nice if some of the factual info can be corrected…

I have to respectfully disagree with many of the points you mentioned, and I believe it really boils down to the different android phone models that can provide a very different user experience.

I have been using my Xiaomi Mi 11 for a maybe 18 months now, and going through some of your points but from this phone’s perspective:

1. iOS has smooth animations for everything, is quicker for searching and finding apps, and just plain looks better to me - the Miui interface is renowned / notorious for being a copycat of the iOS interface, so I actually see no big difference from the iOS interface. But Android being Android, it is highly customizable, and with my phone rooted, I actually have the iOS’s own San Francisco system font installed (I hated Android’s default roboto font), and have customized the main page to have two news update widgets just the way I wanted it. My background is an animated waterfall that to me looks stunning (created from my own video shot during a hiking trip). I know it is subjective, but honestly I see it the other way around. Android, with the right phone model and when setup right, can have butter smooth animations for everything, is just as quick if not quicker for searching and finding apps (I literally have the apps organized in their respective folders, never difficult to find), and it just plain looks better to me especially with the animated background of my own choice.

2. some stutter in animations and slow app indexing through their search bar - … yeah it probably has something to do with your old phone. No problem whatsoever over here. 120Mhz refresh rate. Butter smooth all day long.

3. iMESSAGE AND FACETIME - can’t comment here. Facetime especially can be a headache if everyone else is using an iPhone.

4. Voice Assistant - haven’t tried Siri for years. But I have been using Google Assistant both in Android Auto and (to a lesser extent) on the phone itself. No complaints there. I have a Google Nest Audio device too and thought it integrates well with my phone and my smart home (turning lights on/off, activating the home alarm system, interfacing with Home Assistant, etc)

5. CarPlay is quite a bit ahead here as well - hmm this is where I am really quite confused. My wireless Android Auto works extremely well with my vehicle. It starts up as soon as I enter my car in like less than one second with a totally seamless process (as in I do not need to do anything at all). With the coolwalk version of AA (released for more than 6 months already I believe), it actually has everything you mentioned that are available on Carplay: No warning message, time IS near the driver, app bar IS on the right where I sit (we have steering wheels on the right side). My AA IS smooth and is already wireless without any need for any dongle. And since my phone is rooted, I can even tweak my AA to play videos which is nice when your car is parked and you are waiting for someone for instance. Here is a snapshot:

On my Firefox Android I have “installed” Lemmy (specifically lemm.ee) as a web app. When I quit this app everytime Firefox crashes. Anyone else have the same issue?

If such a big group can kill themselves together, I have a feeling they can communicate… Probably a group decision

Mine is a Xiaomi phone, so probably not just pixel exclusive…

Because I have no audio content in my Jellyfin server.

OP here. I am only using Jellyfin only for videos, and for that, Fermata is actually a pretty good app to let you access Jellyfin via Android Auto to watch videos.

I am pretty sure Jellyfin AA works as it should (for audio only, which I did not know about) otherwise there would have been lots of posts on Reddit prior to the exodus…

Docker container running on a Synology. Version 10.8.10.

A stream without username/password (e.g. those in https://github.com/iptv-org/iptv) work just fine. Just this stream I encountered that contains a username/password doesn’t. And like I stated in OP the stream itself probably isn’t the problem, as KODI can play and list all the channels within just fine.

I prefer to use Jellyfin because it transcodes even these live TV streams for my mobile devices when reception isn’t that good.

Oh that would explain it then. I use Jellyfin only for videos, it has zero music content as of now.

Maybe I will try adding a music file or two to see if the mp3’s will show up.

So you now have 2 separate drives that are not mirrored?

I have actually just unsubscribed from this community. Moving over to !world@lemmy.world, hopefully they have better-quality news posts there.

Can’t watch the rest of the video after only 2 minutes. I am a Hong Konger, I know first hand HK is NOT using the NSL “to target people working in secret for a foreign power to damage our community.”

Fact is, the HK puppet government is following CCP’s footsteps to target those who calls for democratic measures and rule of law to be applied and upheld in HK. These people, by voicing out, are now fugitives who in the eyes of the HK govt have “all violated the all encompassing NSL”. They even have a bounty on them.

I risk crossing the red line myself by saying this. Hopefully the HK police is not yet scouring Lemmy, or I could very well be labelled as someone “who is working secretly for a foreign power” myself.

This “reporter” is clearly spreading fake news.

Edit: I just noticed the sidebar of this community that says “Please only post links to actual news sources, no tabloid sites, etc”. Has this post then violated the rule? How do I get in touch with the mods?

You mean like this?

Whoever took the video badly needs a crash course on basic video recording skills…

Same here. Nothing gets uploaded anywhere else, you keep your own .kdbx password file and sync/backup is entirely up to you. Much safer than solutions like 1password or bitwarden imo.

Kee2pass for windows is what I use to access the password file on my PC. So across different devices I can still see my passwords.
