[The Weekly Edition @lypnv]

Anyone looking for a quirky Readwise Reader alternative that they'll be able to shape by getting into it's initial test batch?

It's designed to run on Android devices for now but iOS will come if there is enough feedback.

Leave Tridge alone. Seriously. Just mind your own business. Various people stirring up drama, with a cohort of seemingly terrible followers. Fork it and do the work yourself, if you can think you can do better. If not, STFU, and let the man cook however he wants.

@madebygoogle @HunterIkegbunam don't bother replying to them by the way, they ask you, but then ignore your response anyway.

@HunterIkegbunam it's sad but my wifes ancient iphone xr has better battery than my pixel. hated on apple for a long long time. but can't deal with samsung. and pixel is a wreck

@WhosCinq @TapasBlox @Nacitrex @AnthiiSunshine aye. pixel 6a was a shitty phone for a decent price. badly regret my 8a.

[The Weekly Edition @lypnv]

@dr3dn0t @Nacitrex recently went from a pixel 8a to my wifes ancient dusty iphone xr. sad to say but the xr is an upgrade (exception: camera, and screen brightness).
