  • Have you even seen r/india? It’s the inverse of what you have written. Criticising the govt is the rule there, in fact, there was a whole subreddit called r/indiadiscussion originally dedicated for meta linking of why people got banned from r/india. (r/indiadiscussion isn’t meta only anymore but if one trawls through the old posts, assuming they aren’t deleted, one can see the breadth of bans from r/india)

    It’s r/indiaspeaks that was originally formed as a free speech bastion that turned rightwing because the main sub was staunchly on the opposite side of the spectrum(and loved to use the banhammer).

    I don’t think I can link usernames here but a notorious powermod of r/india used to moderate r/worldnews as well and banning from once meant ban from the other.





  • HMD, the spiritual successor to Nokia, still produces the odd phone (latest being the HMD Fusion) that is close to stock Android in feeling. The author mentions that folks looking for stock Android are well served by Pixel A series of phones but they are still overwhelmingly expensive, Atleast in emerging markets.

    I could be wrong, but didn’t previous generation of Samsung A series phones come with eMMC storage. I think this has UFS 2.2, so slight increase there as well.

    But I agree that overall it’s an incremental upgrade only. And base model of 4GB RAM might not hold in the long term. I had/have an entry level Samsung phone(A05 I guess), but that stutters much
