Microsoft launcher is super underrated IMO. Lots of customization. I use it for my foldable, but it’s a bit hit or miss sometimes (scaling of folders sometimes gets messed up going from open to closed).

As much as I love shitting on the French for being terrible with numbers (seriously, how the fuck is the word for ‘99’ ‘four-twenties, a ten, and a nine’?!?) this one seems intentional so you can feel when you run out.

Dicey Dungeons is an example of a game that I think is actually BETTER on mobile (cheaper too). Awesome game, and the touch controls really streamline it.

My gut reaction (that others seem to share) is that the activity might be the problem. I always hate giving up my lunch during the workweek, because it’s my only alone time to unwind during the day.

Try a different activity (group activities can be less intimidating for sure, like “hey I’m meeting a few friends at a park Saturday if you feel like swinging by” because then there’s less pressure on them specifically). Maybe a walk or something on Sunday mornings, or ask him about his hobbies specifically? You can also just communicate via phone and still be friends. Maybe he’s still just working up to the point where he feels comfortable hanging out socially frequently.

Good luck!

Just to be clear, the Boy Scouts actively protected abusers to protect their reputation, and went out of their way to NOT PREVENT ABUSERS FROM JUST BECOMING SCOUT MASTERS AGAIN SOMEWHERE ELSE.

This wasn’t just a ‘bad luck’ sort of thing, the Boy Scouts were actively HELPING abusers because they didn’t want the bad publicity.

So i just got a Oneplus Open (the folding phone) and have been test driving launchers to see what works well.

Call me crazy, but Microsofts launcher they made for the Duo is actually really solid. You can adjust the dock to pull out like a mini app drawer while still having a full app drawer (with folder support), and each of those is independent (you have have a dock be like 12 columns wide and 3 rows tall while your homescreens are something more normal like 4x4). Individual icon changes too, which is always a big deal for me. And you can even do things like have the app drawer show the defauot icons while your homescreen is all custom icons.

It even has a universal search bar like nova does, and you can toggle what it searches for (apps, documents, web, all of the above). I was worried it would force me to use microsoft stuff to get the full use out of it, but nope.

Im honestly incredibly impressed. Its almost as featured as the free version of Nova launcher.

Fun fact: orange (the fruit) is actually named after the tree they grow on (essentially called “fruit of the orange tree”) which was then shortened to just “oranges”, and THEN the color was named after the fruit (color of the fruit of the orange tree) which was then also shortened to just “orange”, so technically the fruit is not named after a color, its the other way around.
