Xiaomiui community was founded in 2017 but recently faced some challenges and declined in activity. The biggest reason for this is the pressure put on us by the Xiaomi Global team. However, I'll try to write a farewell message for you, reflecting on the importance of the community and expressing gratitude for your time spent there.

Dear fellow Xiaomiui members,

It saddens me to share that our beloved community has faced some challenges and is now on its way to closure. In the past few years, we have shared countless memories, knowledge, and experiences together. It was a privilege to be a part of such a vibrant community where we could learn and grow together.

The Xiaomiui community has played an important role in shaping my understanding of technology, as well as my love for Xiaomi smartphones. The collective knowledge and passion we shared have helped us find solutions to various issues, making our devices even better.

Thank you for being a part of this journey with me. I will always cherish the friendships we've formed and the moments we've shared. I hope we will continue to stay connected in other ways, even after the community's closure.

Lastly, I would like to express my gratitude to the every member who contributed to this community. Your hard work and dedication have helped create a space where we could learn, share, and grow together.

Thank you, and farewell, dear friends. May our paths cross again in other online communities or even in real life. Xiaomiui.net is permanently ending its news life. But don't worry, we will continue to share important news for you on @GSMChina gsmchina.com. ❤️

X is starting to charge new users $1 per year to send tweets

The subscription requires new users to pay the equivalent of $1 USD per year in order to be able to post.

"As of October 17th, 2023 we’ve started testing 'Not A Bot,' a new subscription method for new users in two countries," X explains. "This new test was developed to bolster our already significant efforts to reduce spam, manipulation of our platform and bot activity. This will evaluate a potentially powerful measure to help us combat bots and spammers on X, while balancing platform accessibility with the small fee amount."

This fee is for new users only. Those who don’t pay will only be able to use X in a "read only" mode. It is currently being tested in New Zealand and the Philippines.

The company said that for now the fees will not apply to existing users.

Motorola's new foldable concept phone shown at LenovoTechWorld 2023!

At its core, a 6.9-inch display can be used just as a normal Android smartphone. You can run apps and do anything else just as usual. But bending the device allows it to sit in an upright position which cuts the display size down to 4.6-inches while allowing it to stand up on its own.

On the other hand, the device can even be bent to fit around your entire wrist and worn like a really big smartwatch
