    As someone who moved from Android to iOS this year, I miss the reachability of being able to swipe back from either side of the screen. Like many of the other Lemmy apps, Voyager lets you customize gestures for Posts and Comments. I disabled swipe-right because that’s iOS’s Back gesture, but I still need to start from the very far left edge of the screen in Voyager. Some other apps, after having disabled those swipe-right gestures, allow me to swipe back without having to reach the far left edge. It’s way more comfortable for me as a right handed user.

    I switched earlier this year.

    Shortcuts app:

    • Shortcuts has Tasker vibes. You can do a lot with it, especially automation.
    • Lmk if you’re a Google Home user. You can setup Shortcuts so that Siri passes on commands to Google Assistant.
    • You can even customize the Action button to run a Shortcut. I’ve got mine to check if it’s connected to my home WiFi, then toggle bedroom lights; if connected to work WiFi, then… etc.
    • Take advantage of Focus modes (Work, Sleep, etc.) because Shortcuts can use that as a condition.

    Apple TV: Ted Lasso is worth watching.

    3rd party apps worth mentioning:

    • QuickScan. Completely free, with optional donations. Create multipage OCR’d PDFs with your camera.
    • Brave Vivaldi browser mainly for ad-free YouTube.
    • Paperback if you read manga, manhwa, etc.

    Lemmy apps: Voyager is the most frequently updated and smoothest, but it lacks some QoL features that I enjoy in other apps, such as Thunder. Give all of them a try.

    Sleep alarm with gradually increasing volume: you need to use the 1st party Health app to set up your nightly alarm.

    Additional settings:

    • Back Tap. You can customize double tap and triple tap with a limited set of actions.
    • Reachability. Top of the screen temporarily shifts down.
    • Haptic Touch. Set to Fast so that long presses don’t take so long to activate.

    8th grade. A girl tells me in the presence of classmates, “I love youuuu.” I just think it’s a joke/prank so I reply, “I’m too young!” Later she privately asks me if I meant that. It didn’t click for me until high school.

    Fresh out of an all-boys high school, so no interaction with girls since 8th grade. Freshman year college, fall semester. Classmate says she’s cold and hooks her arm in mine on the walk to lecture. This happens every day. Another classmate asks if we’re dating, and I say no, she’s just cold.

    Same semester, same class, in a lab section, it’s warm. I ask my lab partner (different from arm girl) doesn’t she feel hot, why not take off her sweater. She looks at my and says, “I’m not wearing anything underneath.” Next day in lecture she’s dresssd up really nice and sits next to me.

    Every day in this lecture these 3 girls sit with me. My high school buddy who’s also in the class tells me, while we’re studying, he thinks it’s hilarious that I’m surrounded by girls. I shrug it off.
