Yes this is partly to show off I got a new phone because I’m so fucking happy to be rid of my water damaged Samsung!

Also to show off my amazing meme skills using a meme generator app. 🤓

Bye seriously… I’ve been living in a cave for years. What apps do you recommend?

I installed, so far:

  • Photo editor pro
  • Mi Remote
  • Meme generator

What else? Recommended ebook reader? Anything else?

    My comment had nothing to do with xioami being Chinese, a corporation is a corporation and they’re all trying to collect as much of your data as possible, I guess you can let them if you want lol ¯\(ツ)

      Oh no, no worries. I just saw an opportunity to soap box for a sec! 😃 Thanks though! I’d love to install a firewall but I don’t wanna root the phone. I use mobile-only banking (Monzo, Revolut, Monese) and they refuse to run if you’re phone is rooted. :(

        Ha, fair enough…

        It’s just the first thing I do with a new phone is make sure privacy is as tight as I can get it (without rooting since I’m not confident enough to do that), so that was my recommendation to you… I also have an older xiaomi, and a newer honor (from after their split with huawei), neither are amazing but they do the same job for so much cheaper, I really can’t see why people insist on spending thousands when you can spend hundreds for pretty much the same thing…
