How easy is it to move user data and software to another distro if I decide to change it up?
GooseFinger@lemmy.worldto THE POLICE PROBLEM@lemmy.world•Lawsuit: Paramedics waited outside while man had fatal heart attack, because Seattle Police had flagged the address as 'dangerous' when a previous tenant lived thereEnglish443·2 years agoIf you read the article, the family got everything they wanted from the lawsuit. $1.8 million, and the police department rehauled their blacklist protocol. Blacklisted addresses expire after one year, and they’re verified every time emergency responders are dispatched to one of them. I wonder why similar precautions weren’t in place before, although I can see how something like this can get overlooked until something bad happens and consequences occur. We should demand better, though.
What happened was tragic, but it’s great that the lawsuit had the best outcome for everyone involved.

I have an S21 with Android. Sync runs in the background but it doesn’t use much power. It looks like about an hour or so of use each day accounts for about 5% battery drain, including background activity, and not including power used by the screen or other services running in the background.
Just a thought though - maybe Sync is making tracking attempts in the background? I recently started using Duck Duck Go’s free VPN which blocks tracking attempts made by apps. Some apps, like Messenger and Robinhood, make thousands of tracking attempts every day, even when the apps are closed and not in use. Google makes tracking attempts through Sync, but I’ve only seen these occur while I use the app. I figured the attempts are made each time an ad loads, but I could be wrong.
