I'm waiting for a Sony Xperia foldable. Hamburger style obviously.

An update from a previous Android version to a newer one borked the battery life. It's been noticeably worse than when new. It has times when it just heats up because the CPU is going better, but the actual load is minimal.

It's done because this phone has battery saving features, like you can set it to only charge up to 80%. Over time the max battery life has taken a moderate hit. It's not that it's not tolerable, it's just that I wanted to refresh. Also I kind of messed up my headphone jack, I thi k the ground contact broke, and I already ordered the replacement parts so I want that installed anyway, so I might as well put in a new battery.

I mean, aside from foldables, why should I buy a new phone if nothing's changed much. Most new Android releases seem to make me dislike something here and there.

I've had this phone for about a year and a half now, I'm going to take it to a phone repair place and swap out the battery for a new one, then it will be just like new

What about comments though?

Ah yes, the Toyota Camry feeling

Well yeah, but they expect people talking nonsense to get pummeled in the court of public opinion

That's literally not free speech. If I say I like to eat broccoli every day and that people should try it for health reasons and you're some kind of carnivore mod and it tickles you the wrong way and you block me for it... That's censorship and the opposite of free speech.

You're telling me that you control the narrative. Now there's nuance to censorship for sure, but you're telling me that if you don't like what I say I'm out. I have to type within the confines of the bubble of what isn't too uncomfortable for you.

I say let the downvotes do the talking. If I go on the electric vehicles instance talking about how (non-ironocally) I love to roll coal and how that's what's keeping me from trying EVs, I expect to be downvoted into the shadow realm. And that's ok. What I'm not ok with is a mod assuming that my voice sucks and that I don't deserve to be heard. Maybe some smart lemmier(?) will point out some doodad that makes a brrr noise and shoots out some harmless mist or something.

I'd be more happy if they just dug a really big borehole and then just filled it up where no one lives
