I tend to not really care for most new things, as most of it feels cheap, inauthentic or a scam to further the surviellance facist oligarchy state. Id be completely content with time frozen in 2004.

So, to be a little more positive, what are some new things that are actually good?

Note, to me, new is within the last 10 years.

I’ll start. The fediverse concept is neat.

    Same. Updated to Graphene almost two weeks ago and have been loving it so far. The only thing I’m missing is the built in call screening. I get so many spam calls.

        As of now, nothing. When I was on stock android I had the Pixel built-in call screening. I might try a third party service but I haven’t found one I like yet.

          In Graphene’s phone app, you can go to Settings -> Blocked Numbers, and enable “Numbers not in Contacts”. That will send any call from numbers you don’t have saved directly to voicemail. I still get the occasional voicemail message that’s just 2 seconds of silence (they didn’t hang up in time) but it stopped all spam calls for me.
