There are a couple specific Reddit subs that I use that haven’t migrated. They are an app specific and a device specific sub. They are the only reason I still have a Reddit account. There aren’t as many posts on Lemmy, but they are increasing. There are also other places like Scored, Raddle, Tildes, Rabbit Hole, Saidit, Kbin, Aether, and Minds. Some of them have seen some growth since Reddit took the plunge off the cliff.
I use it for lots of things. I’m not a coder, so I can’t make my own apps from scratch. With Tasker I can make my own apps. I’ve made tons of them.
I still have a Reddit account because there are some core subs that haven’t migrated, but I don’t have to official app installed. I use Tasker to check Reddit and notify me of posts.
My memory is horrible and my schedule is varied every day, so I can’t set alarms for certain times. I made an app where I can say something to my watch and it will remind me depending on my location. For example, I can remind myself to get paper towels on my way home from work. When I leave work, it will send a reminder to my watch.
I use it for call screening. I only let calls from my contacts ring. It sends all other calls to voicemail.
I use it to run scripts in Termux.
I have a routine that will tell me why an app was closed.
I have it POST things to the timeline on my watch with JSON.
I have it reassign functions to my phone’s buttons. I made an app that turns on the flashlight when I shake the phone.
I have it put the battery level of my Bluetooth devices in my notification bar and on my watchface.
I have it gather weather and notify me conditions and severe weather alerts.
I could go on and on, but you get the idea. You can do just about anything with it.
You can use Beeper to replace all your communication apps. That way you only have to install one app, and you don’t have to have Meta installed.
Why does it even matter if there are books that aren’t in the school library? It’s not like there’s no way a student could read a certain book just because it’s not inside the school. This is as pointless as arguing about which restrooms people can use. People on both sides get all worked up and upset, but at the end of the day a student can read a book even if it’s not in the school and anyone can use any restroom. My mom used to go in the men’s room all the time and nobody ever took any issue with it. I’ve read tons of books that weren’t in my school library. In fact, almost every book I’ve ever read wasn’t in my school library.
