You keep reading because reading is a reflex. If you can’t get your attention, you’ll keep reading, but you’ll be contemplating in your imagination. This is normal.
Are you happy with it? What are its best and worst qualities?
I love the phone. Its my first non low-end android, and I can’t see myself going back to an iPhone. I love the assortment of emulators available for Android, and the pixel 7 main camera is very good. The selfie camera could use some work, but picture taking is not what I got this phone for anyway.
Which phones have you had previously? Which were the best and worst of the lot?
My previous phones were an iPhone 11 and an iPhone 5C before that. I have a Moto G pure (low end android) for a little bit, although it was more of a secondary phone instead of something to switch to, as it is very sluggish to use. The iPhone 11 was a good phone, the selfie camera is still better than my current pixel phone. I definitely craved the feeling of freedom I got from my Motorola though, despite its shortcomings. So I went ahead and got my pixel.
How often do you upgrade to a new phone? Very rarely, I might be upgrading more often now though due to pixels having shorter security update Windows than iPhones.
What other Android ecosystem devices do you have? Watches, headphones/earbuds, etc.
None at the moment, although I am planning on getting Pixel buds.
Do you also use any Apple products, or are you Android all the way? (And/or Windows, Linux, ChromeOS, etc.)
For now I am android all the way. I have a Lenovo Thinkpad with Windows 11 on it, I have tried to switch to Linux but my laptops display needs fractional scaling as the dimensions of the screen are different from the resolution. So until fractional scaling gets better on nvidia cards I’ll have to stay with Windows.
How is it ephemeral? My Docker instance for Lemmy logs forever unless I manually clear the logs. My Caddy reverse proxy logs every request too. Both are stored to disk and I’m free to copy them out at any time. They’ll keep increasing in size until I decide to clear them.
They’re logged through the Docker engine, not the container. A malicious actor would require a sophisticated container breakout attack to even attempt to clear them. Those attacks are rare and highly publicized.
Alternatively, an attacker could try to find my real instance IP from behind Cloudflare (probably not going to happen), somehow bypass my provider’s firewall which only allows SSH from my home IP (my home is more likely to be broken into than that), and then somehow defeat SSH authentication on top of both of those (quantum computers aren’t quite there yet).
I’m having trouble seeing the risk you’re concerned about.
My first distro was Manjaro. It was really cool, but also I remember having some trouble getting things to work on it without super extensive troubleshooting.
If we get a Ukraine post to the top of r/all, maybe congress will approve another $2b in “aid” for the bottomless money pit wholesome chungus war effort!!
