Interesting that you would say someone like that when the options on a screen are in the same place, too.

Is there a launcher for me? in c/[email protected]

Well, the Google feed mainly. I guess maybe it's less about what features it's missing and more about what features in gaining.

Weird. When I swipe to the left on nova, nothing happens. What am I missing?

Is there a launcher for me? (lemmy.world)
 

I've tried a lot of the launchers I see talked about frequently- Nova, Niagra, Smart Launcher, Action Launcher, etc. but they all seem to not be worth the hassle of switching away from pixel launcher. Also none of them have the Google News feed that the pixel launcher has. I feel like I'm losing features when I switch. Perhaps I'm just stupid and am not utilizing the features these launchers actually bring to the table.

Can you tell me about your favorite launcher and it's features that keep you hooked to it? Thanks.

No, they tend to be correct.

Doesn't seem like those are available in Android.

Just installed f droid to check this out. I don't like it. Way too bare bones and not really intuitive.

I like being alerted to weather events such as warnings and watches. I also like hyper local forecasts.

Nothing really compares to what Dark Sky was, but MyRadar is as close as I could find and I've tried all the major and some not so major apps on the Google Play store.

Switched from uTorrent to QBitTorrent (lemmy.world)
 

So a bunch of people in this subreddit told me that uTorrent was trash and to switch to QBitTorrent.

I didn't think much of it. How could one be so much better than the other? They're both just torrent downloaders.

Holy shit was I wrong. I don't even really understand what is happening, but downloading torrents on QBitTorrent is so, so, so much faster and I don't even understand how.

A movie downloads in basically seconds compared to 10 or 20 minutes on uTorrent.

Why is this? What is this magic? What makes QBitTorrent so much faster?

I just deleted my entire library and redownloaded it. (lemmy.world)
 

A lot of my files were shitty 480p versions of movies from the Napster days. Now they're all 1080p, with a few 720p exceptions (mainly tv series episodes). All in all 500 something files in total. Now just watching uTorrent slowly download them all. Hopefully my VPN keeps the eyes off of me...
