Yes, it can be resource intensive. Use mid models for best performance

SherpaTTS is Foss and works offline after downloading voice data

It’s been here since more than a year. https://blog.mozilla.org/en/mozilla/firefox-androids-new-privacy-feature-total-cookie-protection-stops-companies-from-keeping-tabs-on-your-moves/

It’s there on mobile. Check the details tab in tracking protection. You should see it mentioned there.

You are better off using an open source app like Aegis, KeepassDX, among others.

These are miui shenanigans. You can disable chrome in settings and set different browsers as default on most other Roms like oneui, stock android, realmeui, etc. Last time I used miui, I decided never again.

They said PWA. Chrome and Chrome like browsers can install pwa as native apps, aka webapks on your android. Firefox can only add a shortcut where sites can run full screen.

My older redmi has this issue where once a accessibility service was killed, it had to be disabled and enabled with the 10s mandatory wait because xiaomi. Miui also disables a bunch of APIs like 3rd party apps cannot change the wallpaper or the running services option present in most ROMs. This isn’t to ignore the aggressive app killing behavior of miui. Overall, my experience wasn’t great. Oneui is a much better and more stable experience, IMO.

Gestures were broken in android 11, but Google had released a fix, so they worked with 3rd party launchers. Xioami, for some reason, hasn’t applied that fix, so it’s still broken in miui. Other roms do not have this issue.

He must be talking about glance on samsung.

On the latest miui, you can not use gestures. Only button navigation

This isn’t the default for others. In OneUI, for example, you can use a combination of both, even with 3rd party launchers. One-handed mode+, for example, is awesome for gestures.

That €20 is for remove ads. Update the app and check the sidebar

Last I knew fdroid didn’t support shizuku. Unless, you talk about 3rd party fdroid clients like droidify and neostore, etc. Also, unless xiaomi borked the adb perms(I’m sure they did like they do for accessibility service apps) shizuku can work with wireless adb.

It would still still prompt that pop-up. That was the case when I had one on android 10. It’s a miui thing unless it gets bypassed for this android API.

There’s a setting to disable scanning of installing apps. Disable it from security app. Also, don’t debloat the security app it will break things for you.

They won’t need too. Chrome is the standard.

Firefox could get litigated for ad fraud and these trusted 3rd parties could block firefox from accessing the sites. It won’t work.

Yeah you should. It installs fine on my android 13 device with same amount of ram. I think must be some black listing issue.

I kept on seeing that so frequently it became annoying. Later, I discovered it stopped when I started to use cloudflare dns with their playstore app. So, I think it must be rate limiting from lemmy.ml itself or some weird dns issue from my service provider.
