What tools do you use to choose a new phone?

GSMARENA Phone Finder is pretty amazing. You can filter by basically any phone characteristic you want. Back material? Yep. Refresh rate? Also yes. Proximity sensor? You got it. Minimum wired charging wattage? Sure, why not.

I've yet to find a more comprehensive one.

Edit: taking a look at Kimovil. It seems like it has much of the same filters as Phone Finder, but with the bonus of also showing price, which is nice.

LocalSend cross-platform application for transferring files on local network

LocalSend has been a godsend (pun intended) to me. I used Snapdrop/Sharedrop before, but it was always a coin toss if the transfer would work or not. I ended up switching to filedrop, but for some reason my transfer speeds were really low.

With LocalSend my issues have been all but resolved. I can send huge files between my pc and phone without fear of it disconnecting, and it works on my pc, old notebook, my dad's iPhone and my android phone. I really can't thank Tienisto (the creator) enough for what he built.

I think OP is mixing up IRC and Matrix. IRC indeed does require you to be online to receive messages (but there are ways around that), but matrix loads your messages offline just fine.

Checked it now and I have 3k unread messages on the lemmy support chart.
