Two years ago, a feature was added to Android 12 where the previous audio source would fade out when a different source starts playing (e.g. you start a YouTube video while music is playing).

A post was made on XDA on 18 May, 2021:

Audio focus is determined by the app in question that's playing media. Google explained that when an app requests audio focus while another app has the focus and is playing, the framework forces the playing app to fade out. This will be a nice change because instead of another app abruptly ending its audio stream whenever the user starts another session, Android 12 will nicely fade out the old stream that's lost focus.

I remember being very impressed with this feature and found it satisfying every time. However, after buying a Samsung Galaxy A24 running Android 13, I was disappointed to discover that this feature is missing.

This is yet another reason why I can't wait to install a custom ROM on this phone. For now, though, I guess I'll just have to wait.

User jAm-0 has issues getting into and out of his phone's bootloader. He attributes this to the bootloader being corrupt and wants to replace it.

User return.of.octobot provides instructions to allow reflashing the bootloader. One of the steps is to run fastboot flashing unlock_critical, which allows the bootloader to be overwritten.

Overwriting the bootloader is the only way to hard brick most devices, and fastboot flashing unlock_critical tells Android you don't care and are willing to take the risk. Hard bricking makes a device unfixable on the software level.

jAm-0 has another question and receives responses from return.of.octobot and another user, nrage23. Again, no disclaimers are given and the word "brick" isn't even brought up.

jAm-0 hard bricks their phone.

I couldn't find a solution on the internet when I had this problem, so I thought I might share this with other people who run into it.

Consistency

As you may know, a message written in one Reddit client doesn't display the same in another. Here's an example:

```
First line
Second line
```

First line
Second line

They also differ in how they render subscripts with parentheses (a^(\(b\))), nested subscripts (a^b^c), and code blocks and lists that immediately follow text.

Lemmy doesn't have these issues, since its Markdown specification is clearly defined.

Images

On Reddit, if you want to add images to a text post, you have to use the Fancy Pants editor on reddit.com. If you attempt to edit such a post on the official app, a third-party app, old.reddit.com or the mobile site, these images simply turn into links. Additionally, you can't attach images in comments.

Lemmy lets you attach images from anywhere, including comments.
