FYI: VPNs don't work over multiple profiles in Android

I actually ran into this a while ago and thought it'd be interesting to share for those who didn't realize this and may want to know for privacy reasons or whatever.

I stumbled upon this because I use [Shelter](https://f-droid.org/en/packages/net.typeblog.shelter/) to isolate cer...

Oppo releasing numerous budget phones through the A series.

Oppo is primarily known for their camera specifications. But recently they have been releasing numerous phones in the budget range with affordable features as well as prices. I personally think that it is a pretty solid move for affordable users because they will have a bunch of options within their budgets. I do like the integrated features in the recently announced Oppo A12 as well as Oppo A12s - and I think as long as they don't decide on an exorbitant price aspect - their consumers will be p...

For folks waiting on the P4A, have you considered the Galaxy S10e?

A bit of shitpostingand yes, I am biased since I own the S10e, but hear me out.

If you are considering the Pixel 4a, I would strongly recommend you consider the Samsung Galaxy S10e for the following reasons:

1. From the front, the phones are almost identical with almost the same dimensions.
2. The S10e offers all the benefits that the P4a has - AMOLED screen, headphone jack, compact size, etc.
3. The S10e does offer some advantages, such as a faster SOC, expandable storage, (reverse) wireless ...
