I keep hearing this from people but it runs terrible on my SD. Cannot get more than ~27 fps and it regularly dips below that.

Did you tweak the settings somehow?

I previously played it on my Xbox and had a great time. Would love to play it again on the SD eventually.

Sort of. Google and Microsoft really weren’t on good terms back then (relatively speaking). Both were competing for the mobile OS market, and Microsoft ran this whole „Don’t get Scroogled“ campaign to demote Android.

Naturally, Google did not offer any of their apps for Windows phone - i.e. no Google maps or YouTube. Microsoft then made their own YouTube client for windows phone which was an okay app. However Google wasn’t happy with this and had them take down the app and replace it with their own version instead.

The problem is that Google’s YouTube app for windows phone was so embarrassingly bad that after countless 1-star reviews they decided to pull the app from the windows phone store, effectively leaving the platform with no YouTube app at all. There was at least one third party client which was decent, but there was never another official one after that IIRC.

I switched from Android to iPhone a month ago and the Nextcloud app can definitely access & sync all photos & videos just fine.

So far I have not noticed any problems with background sync but I do also open the Nextcloud app frequently so that might have something to do with it. I guess a workaround could be to set up a shortcut which opens Nextcloud whenever the phone is connected to a charger during the night, for example.

Lastly I just want to add that it isn’t all sunshine and rainbows on Android either. From my own experience photo sync never worked reliably on whichever phone I was using (Huawei, LG, Samsung, Google, Microsoft, …). And let’s not forget that each manufacturer is also trying to push their own gallery & backup solution to lock you in. Even worse, some manufacturers like Microsoft have this mishmash where you have OneDrive for photo sync but then also Google Photos which you can’t uninstall and keeps begging you to please back up all your stuff and then pay for more storage. It’s the same BS as Apple with their iCloud tbh.

What about OneDrive or NextCloud? They offer photo uploads

I have the same experience unfortunately in Europe. Was looking for a new hairdryer the other day, and it's just endless pages of the same Chinese crap with made up brand names and fake customer reviews.

Gave up and drove to the store instead.

Usually if you use Do not Disturb and the same number calls you twice within 15 mins then it will still ring

ICYMI the "simple" apps were sold to some shovelware company and will require a subscription soon (or maybe they already do). So you might want to look for an alternative if that's what you are using.

Literally everyone I know uses WhatsApp. It's probably been over a decade since I last sent or received an actual SMS (except for 2FA codes).

It's on my todo list I swear

Change / coins are pretty annoying imho

Well I literally just ordered an ultrawide OLED for work, but I guess I'll have to play some games then to protect the monitor...

I remember trying this as well but it didn't help, and the problem also exists on Linux
