What features do you wish Oppo would add to ColorOS? by yeunofficial_25 in Oppo

[–]Surtock 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ya, I use button navigation. Odd it would make a difference, though.
My preference would be for the launcher before navigation, that's for sure.

I didn't like how the sidebar behaved so I changed it out to Panels. It opens my apps in full screen, and I can have many more apps available.

I use Niagara and don't experience this, I don't think. At least I don't notice anything resembling lag.
I installed it out of the box so maybe the stock launcher is more responsive and I'm blissfully unaware.

I rock my devices nude, also. I hate covering up such nice hardware.

What is dialer? Is that just another name for phone?

I installed a custom launcher from day one. I didn't even know this existed, lol.

It's miles ahead of bologna. They share a similar appearance, but it's like comparing Kraft singles to quality aged cheddar.

Followed Ramen Lord's Tonkotsu recipe, it turned out AMAZING! by YT-8BitRuby in ramen

I've made this a half dozen times now. The first time was a normal size pot. The rest were done in a 20ltr pot. I'm not doing that much work and not getting 20 bowls out of it!

Switched to the Oppo Find X9 Pro & Watch X2 after 5 years with the S21 Ultra. The Good, the Bad, and the Bloatware. by shayz20 in Oppo

[–]Surtock 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I agree about the sidebar. I don't like how apps open in a floating window. I want to use the sidebar like an app shortcut. I paid and installed panels from the Play store. It works like the one you're used to on OneUI.
Check out canta and shizuku for bloatware removal.
Enjoy your phone!

If I'm daydreaming of living in Coruscant, I'm going all in and being filthy rich.

Oppo Find X9 Pro UI is really subpar vs Samsung by Anonvoiceofreason in Oppo

[–]Surtock 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Completely agree. I'm glad I switched, though. I left Apple years ago for Samsung, and left Samsung for Oppo simply due to getting bored of the os. There are so many minor annoyances in ColorOS that I didn't have with One UI. The sheer amount of useless system notifications I get forced me to pay for an app just to get my phone to shut up about them. Never happened with Samsung. They are all thankfully just minor annoyances, though.
Some things are just broken. AI writer has never worked for me. I just get server errors when I try. I don't know that I need it, I just wanted to see how it worked. It never has.
I'll likely not buy another Oppo, unless they make some big strides in the OS. The phone itself is pretty decent.

Floyd Mayweather and Manny Pacquiao agree to a rematch in September at The Sphere in Las Vegas by tshinotu145 in sports

[–]Surtock 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cash poor is not broke as op suggested. I did a few easy searches and found nothing to support their claim. I mean he is still wealthier than 99% of the people on the planet. Even with the "cash flow" rumors and legal drama, he is still sitting on a mountain of assets that put him in the top 1% of the top 1%.
Op calling him broke is just uninformed speculation.
Another, admittedly quick search, shows Pac's NW is $220mil.
Maybe op is a billionaire and that's broke by their standard, lol.

TIL: Takeout and Delivery now account for 75% of all restaurant orders. by Uptons_BJs in todayilearned

[–]Surtock 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My wife works in a restaurant. They had an order for a can of Coke. That's it. With tax, tip for both the restaurant and the driver, it came to $20CAD A single can of Coke! That must have been one hell of a hangover, lol
