  • I use DNS66 downloaded from F-Droid. It registers itself as a VPN, but it’s actually a DNS filter, not a VPN. It works to filter ads on most apps, and you can individually disable it for specific apps if needed.

    I also use the Firefox app, which supports a few add-ons (much less than the desktop version), including uBlock and some similar options

    I’d recommend one or both. They’re working great for me on a non-rooted Pixel 4a 5G

    I have the Galaxy Watch 4 and I like it. Here’s a screenshot of the heart rate settings. On my current setting, it monitors continuously while exercising (including a long walk) and every 10mins while still.

    It can also monitor blood oxygen continuously, but only during sleep (presumably to check for sleep apnea). While awake, you can take a manual blood oxygen measurement

  • What podcast? I like a good podcast.

    Yeah, I feel like that phenomenon happens elsewhere too. I read the book B.S. Jobs last year, and it talked about is all the (debatably) useless positions popping up at companies - extra layers of management, assistants to make the managers feel important, corporate lawyers that are only there to cause trouble for the other team’s corporate lawyers. Just a whole lot of man-hours spent not making products/services/whatever.

    (I wouldn’t say I’m 100% on board with all the book’s arguments, but it sure made me think)
