I have an S7 (yes I know it's old) I still like it and it works - but - something happens about once or twice a month and it starts hanging up whenever a phone call connects and/or an app will get super laggy.

Anyway, reboot fixes it (so far) and nothing else I've tried does.

There's definitely something with these older phones that is like a slow leak and the simple, easy, lasts for weeks fix is to just take 2 minutes for a full "turn it off and back on again"

Plus the overheating when something gets stuck doing a background thing. Reboot reboot.

I plan to use this phone until it dies, reboot stops fixing things, or needed apps are no longer working/supported.

Slack no longer works/supported, but that one I'm just like "oh, noooo" However I expect ones I actually need to start falling off and I'll be lucky to get a couple more years of use.

My meandering point, some of us are still using Android phones where reboot helps a lot

My husband isn't on Lemmy, lol. I was just pointing out that my house has a similar light dynamic as this guy's. And that sometimes it's the wife with the light sensitivity. And yes, I know I'm weird for it compared to other people. :)

I'm the wife and I'm like you. I will stand in the dark and wait for my eyes to adjust rather than turn on a light.

We have fairy lights and red LED string lights for the high traffic areas to dissuade hubby from flipping on the overhead.

Low light motion sensor nightlights for a couple spots so that we don't step on a cat on the way to the bathroom.

The kitchen lights are dimmable, so we can go bright when needed to cook, and dim if just searching for a snack.

I love it. He has given in and adjusted. I find it calm and cozy.
