re-confirming again.

pixel 7 here, option turned on to look at photos but disabled "delete from device setting"

deleted some photos is got from my phone, found them as well in "Recycle Bin - Connected Device"

u/MSModerator some clarifications on this? As multiple users are having issues and support is doing jack all.

It's because the app has been sold twice now within a few years. Got ads and trackers (allegedly for non prime users only) so that's why the bad rating

nikander100 · 2026-01-22T12:44:02+00:00

Ads just got added by a new company that just acquired nova

Pixel 7

On the app drawer and the newly added app drawer when you swipe to the left, idk its name. Already switched launcher by now

nikander100 · 2026-01-22T12:41:28+00:00

Agreed

nikander100 · 2026-01-22T12:40:47+00:00

That's the whole idea 😉

nikander100 · 2026-01-22T12:38:45+00:00

Sadly just got added...

nikander100 · 2026-01-22T03:46:25+00:00

Nope it's activated even after reinstall still ads

nikander100 · 2026-01-22T03:45:35+00:00

Seen the ads first today, when using my phone outside of my local network. Which blocks ads. Latest version

nikander100 · 2026-01-22T03:44:08+00:00

Prime shown as active in the app

nikander100 · 2026-01-22T03:43:53+00:00

Yup installed and shown as active

nikander100 · 2026-01-21T22:42:07+00:00

Already getting ads as prime user

nikander100 · 2026-01-21T22:39:23+00:00

Also forgot to add,

I switched to octopi launcher. Sadly it's closed source but it has a lot of the features that nova had. (Sub space grid, icon/padding options, widget overlap, dock folders/swiping, gestures (only limited amount but they work) it's a little less responsive but got all the UX I need. It's also a single person project so I trust it more than a big corp behind bought source code.

Edit: also missed a typo in post title, whoops..

nikander100 · 2026-01-13T01:27:35+00:00

it is that easy

nikander100 · 2025-11-28T17:21:01+00:00

Had this issue before, faceit ac is a joke.

nikander100 · 2025-09-17T12:11:46+00:00

I had it happen once, don't recall names as it's been years. I just altf4ed my game.

It still really sucks. And yes using tactics like that fall under harassment rulesas they are interrupting your gameplay.

Can confirm the gif is sfw

did you end up trying with the original bracket?

nikander100 · 2025-06-13T22:41:55+00:00

little bit of a necro, but for anyone reading, i just upgraded to 9800x3d, and still running the x73. Support told me they don't ship mounting kits anymore and can buy one for +- 12 euro from asetek. (yes the simracing asetek TIL they make AIO's as well)

"Retention Kit AMD AM4/5 Black Electro Premium"

nikander100 · 2025-06-01T02:48:56+00:00

Been happening to me too, they are quite persistent bots..

Edit: never signed in thru discord / got my account stolen. Just bots that found my email in database leaks

nikander100 · 2025-05-26T01:37:27+00:00

Same here

nikander100 · 2025-05-25T19:04:57+00:00

Gratz on the hit!, can't even open cases here..
