  I like using e-reader because it’s cheap, better on the eyes, the battery lasts forever, and generally screens are bigger than the phone. Also not killing your phone battery showing text is a plus.

  I’ve been kicking around a couple of nook simple touch for several years. it’s ancient, android 2.1! It was easy to jailbreak them and add a launcher, and a couple sane ebook readers (though you’ll have to find older versions of apps that will work with eclair). pop stuff on it over usb, and it’s on there. The ones with backlights are getting super rare, but if you don’t care about that you can probably snag one for round $20 places like ebay.

  Really can’t beat that, costs more to get a power bank to keep from killing your phone reading things.

  Did you perhaps watch thirteen ghosts at some point? Because your animation looks a lot like a part of the machine in that movie, the “Basileus Machine”. To be clear, it’s entirely fictious.

  See link with interesting title.

  Look at actual domain, if it’s *tube/invidious immediately skip over link.

  Click, see it’s loading (any) video site.

  Immediately close page.

  Skipping some steps here, usually fast enough that you don’t even have to hear voice.

  If you won’t write it out in text, it’s not worth receiving the information.

  Internet-routed media transfers, bypassing some (very) shitty filtering done by carriers. Most will compress and downscale any media sent via MMS. A friend didn’t have RCS until recently, and I always had to remember to send links and not actual pictures because they would always recieve unreadable garbage if I let the carrier transfer it. But really, ANY other messaging app solves this… Signal, Telegram, Discord, even Steam Chat will blow the pants off MMS.

  That stuff is super public?

  Seems like a bunch of cut-and-dry violations.
