Definitely exstrinsicly. I do play open world games (and (J)RPGs) and while I do attempt side quests etc, it rarely holds my attention in the same way as the main story, if there is one. If there isn’t one I’ll usually get bored pretty quickly.
No, I’ve honestly never heard that be a thing for this phone. Do you drop it frequently or something? Never had any charging issues.
Xiaomi Poco F2 Pro (Redmi K30 Pro). I honestly only really got it because it had a wild discount on AliExpress back in 2020 and wanted to give MIUI a try. However since then I’ve put TWRP and a custom ROM on it (MIUI isn’t terrible but it seems to kill apps far too much and I’m not big on the ads within the actual OS).
I continue to use it because it still performs great and the battery life is pretty good (usually get about 2 days charge on it), and the custom ROM community around it is pretty reliable too. Plus it has a pop up camera so I definitely know when my phone is trying to look at me.
Not really found much to dislike to be honest, though I guess the camera could be a bit better. It’s definitely helped along with good software though (especially either GCam or the MIUI camera).
I still don’t see why we can’t just use IRC anymore. The protocol itself is old but reliable, and just needs a good client or two to help people compare it to Discord a bit more favourably. Though I suppose the need for a BNC to fully match it is probably a bit much of an ask for most.
