This isn’t really a highly direct solution, but you could try increasing the screen zoom of the whole device by a notch or two. Somewhere in Settings > Display > Font Size/Screen Zoom or something like that may size up the UI enough that it’s comfortable for you. I think you can mix and match font sizes and screen zooms, so you can keep text from getting too big but size up the UI buttons. This will naturally affect all android UI, not just the music widget, but maybe that’s okay in your situation?

You said it pal, not me ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

The cool thing is, you’re right that you’ve got marketable skills that employers want, you just gotta present them in corporate lingo that sanitizes it of any humanity and fun, lmao. You could rephrase that part about the Minecraft server to something like “Actively maintaining a high-uptime server with [X amount] of daily clients by utilizing [insert type of tools/languages here, e.g. MySQL databases].”

I’ve always hated the process of “translating” real life experience into the marketable buzzwords that employers like to see, but until it seems like hiring managers on a wider scale are willing to listen to words that normal people would write, I’m gonna keep trying to speak their language.

Oh yeah, absolutely. It must be exhausting to constantly aim for massive profits rather than simply aiming for a little above breaking even. But hey, we’ve got investors to feed!

See that’s the cool part, they can’t even sustainably pay video creators via ad revenue 🤠👍

If there’s anything I’ve learned from the past 10 years on the internet, it’s that a purely ad-supported business model doesn’t work. We’ve gotten to a point where a significant amount of consumers use adblockers (or are just less responsive to ads/rarely click through to the advertiser), and tech companies are trying to counteract this by raising subscription prices for paying customers and trying to find ways to maximize ad views (see: YouTube testing blocking people viewing the site with an adblocker, smart TVs with software closed-off enough that the average person can’t easily block ads, etc.)

At the end of the day, this is ad companies being as stingy as possible to ensure their profits don’t keep dropping. To me, I just think that betting on a world fueled by ads and data collection was a mistake, and we’re finally starting to see how it’s even hurting the companies trying to profit off that choice.

I second this, it’s great if you care about a modern interface that feels in line with other Android apps these days. Pretty darn slick app with a lot of nice customization features

I absolutely second this, if you aren’t worried about built-in syncing (I use Syncthing to solve this, also cool piece of software), and if you really like the idea of Markdown/text-only notes with image/file attachments, there is absolutely no better tool. Plus, if you think you can get value out of the note linking feature, you can make some incredibly detailed knowledge bases. Really powerful tool when you need it to be, dead simple note-taking by default, it’s a damn good app

Not sure how I never found out about this feature before but this is awesome, thanks for sharing it!
