Back when rooting was all the rage I tinkered with hosting various services. It just didn’t make much sense for such an underpowered device, amongst other reasons (battery swelling).
I did use an old phone to “host” a game automation. One of those “idle clicker” / RPG games since I’m so lazy. After about 2 months the battery swelled and popped the back cover off. That was the end to that idea…

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Should I be using a VPN on my phone to protect my identity and security while emailing and online banking?
0·16 days agoWhile it doesn’t address your security concerns, using a VPN does allow you to circumvent resolution restrictions on certain mobile plans (i.e. streaming limited to 720p)
Celebrate? You underestimate just how lazy I am.
Restoring a local Signal backup doesn’t let you use the same profile on multiple accounts, it forces older profiles to deregister. Try it.
I removed it a year ago for this same reason. Love the extension, hate the seemingly unjustifiable CPU usage.
Signal allows just 1 device at a time, and you need to register by phone number. Unless you use their tablet mode which stores data on server… Maybe check out other projects without such requirement?
Even with rooting (to the dismay of GrapheneOS PR team, so sad), Signal will not backup or restore properly since it uses Strongbox, so you cannot clone it amongst profiles or users. Thank the Titan chip for that. Legit a good thing, except it your case.
Just don’t use Signal.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What's a good non-cash compensation/show of appreciation to a neighbor for cat-sitting?
0·24 days agoIf he’s the type of guy that doesn’t expect repayment and did it out of the kindness in his heart, you can reciprocate by doing the same. Let him know you owe him one, and make sure sure it’s received that you’re serious and not just something “you say”.
When your time comes to do something for him, do you expect payment? Or for him to grovel?
Why not collect them both?

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Do you think I should get a PC or a PS5 for my birthday?
0·28 days agoYou can run SO, SO much more on a PC. And not be locked out of your purchases at a whim (depending on how you buy).
Very capable hardware can be had for the price of a PS5.
