Similar experience.

I was on a trip this summer with my girlfriend and at some point we talked about a particular bag of a particular brand. She wanted to buy it and we talked about trying to find a store in the city we were in.

The next day she had ads of the same exact bag in her IG feed. We never did any research online of the bag so we assumed the phones were listening.

On top of that, none of us are english so we spoke in our native language.

Same way you would prepare a meal without cooking knowledge. Sure, you can buy prep food and heat it on the microwave, but that's about it.

I installed FB a few years back when it started to get popular and everyone was creating accounts. A few days later, a friend of mine posted a picture and tagged me. I hated the fact that I couldn't control that (The security settings were pretty basic back then) so I immediately deleted my account and never looked back.

IG is ok I guess but I'm not really into it since everyone's life appears to be the same.

The only one I really like is Twitter because it lets me stay informed about topics I'm interested in.

try with CMD + Space

I assume you're suggesting to bring up a Finder, which really doesn't fix the problem after I search in the Finder.

Looks like designers at Google are more used to iOS than to Android...

That dialog has little to do with Material principles...

To the point that the Material design files are only available in Sketch, screw Android designers that happen to use other platforms.

Yes and no.

AFAIK, licences are limited and no way near that price. When a taxi driver retires, he "resells" the license to another colleague for a huge amount (150k+). The buyer buys it knowing he'll be able to resell the license when he retires too, and so on.

This practice has been going on for years, so now taxi drivers are afraid of losing the status quo because they've paid an overpriced license.

I'm using a Xiaomi Mi A1 for some time now and so far so good. I was looking for a pure Android experience without all the crapware and custom UI's that come from any major phone brand and this is exactly what I got.

Also, direct updates from Google for 2 years without interference from the brand (Xiaomi in this case). Which means I have security updates every month.

I'm not going to buy anything that's not an AndroidOne from now on, with the exception of a Pixel.

You got exactly NONE updates from google. "Android One" has a requirement for vendors to provide updates. All those updates were from xiaomi.

After doing research in order to buy a new phone, I find it strange that Xaomi products are being suggested as an alternative to vendor anti-privacy and bloat.

MIUI is baked in and you need to register an account with Xaomi if you want to unlock your bootloader and put, say, LineageOS on your phone. Xaomi has a bootloader lockout period on their phones, during which you must wait and use MIUI for a period until your bootloader unlocks. They've increased that period from what was once a couple of weeks, to over a month on new models. That's plenty of time for Xaomi to harvest your data.

Meanwhile, there are other phones that allow you to unlock your bootloader without a data harvesting period.

A couple of months ago, I started getting notifications for random alibaba crap on my Xiaomi phone. Turns out, there's a system app which sends you ads as push notifs. Switched to iphone the next day, privacy is the killer feature.

Mi A1 is Android One phone, i.e. no MIUI, but pure Google experience.

Interesting approach, away from all the CTCI bs. are you guys hiring?

Still, I think that kind of salary in Spain is for high profile senior positions in most cases.

I have heard that such companies like Telefonica, Wallapop, Casuma pays around that range. No ?
