Welcome

We're not The Onion! Not affiliated with them in any way! Not operated by them in any way! All the news here is real!

The Rules

Posts must be:

  1. Links to news stories from...
  2. ...credible sources, with...
  3. ...their original headlines, that...
  4. ...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”

Comments must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.

And that’s basically it!

It would be better than the Samsung Bixby button. At least I would be amused when I accidentally press it instead of annoyed.

There is no Bixby button any longer. There is a configurable side button. On my S22 it's set to act as power button.

The Bixby button was okay when you remapped it to something useful, but Samsung kept going out of their way to break the remapping tools. Heaven forbid people use their phones they way they want to.

Ya, they really wanted people to use it.

They should have built it better then. I wanted to use it, but it was pretty janky.

I know you didn't ask but just in case you (or anyone reading this) don't know about it; Good Lock from the Samsung store. Once downloaded, you can create a routine in the settings app to reconfigure the bixby/power button to do whatever you want
