Some days ago, a neighbor invited me over because she was donating books that belonged to her husband, who died from covid during the pandemic. There were a lot of books, and even by choosing only the ones which caught my attention, I was able to get over 100 different books.
It was the first donation I have ever received and I got really happy about it. I am already halfway through The Shining, which was in the collection. So it got me thinking about donation itself.
What about your experiences with it? And I am asking about donation of things, not money.
After trying a Samsung A13 stock for a week (got lured in with the specs)_ I’m back again to my old Nokia 6.1 with Lineage. The hard requirement for the next phone will be custom rom support. (Pref Lineage) When you have tasted freedom, first rooted phone was the Samsung S2, 1st with custom rom a Moto G2, it’s hard to go back.
Oh, I forgot, while developing for the '15 Samsung Tab S2 I got a value edition version gifted to develop something for as well. A company wanted a cyanogenmod/Lineage for that tablet and gave it to several developers to get that image. (tablet still runs)
It is indeed hard to go back. My current phone is the first one I haven’t flashed in +10 years. I think about it sometimes, but I fear I might lose my macro camera… I found out that I really like photographing insects.
It proved impossible for me.I use the phone for almost nothing, but what I use it for is hindered a lot by the bloatware (and huge amount of ads). At the moment I’d rather use a 5-6u old device that’s debloated and rooted then a new one.
