Yeah. GadgetBridge allows me to set up an allow-list / block-list for notifications. So I can get SMS on my wrist but ignore social media pings.
I'm warning you, im going to remember this.
That sounds amazing 🤩

Loved the article.
One pet peeve of mine: PD plugs are too powerful to charge puny devices. Not the first time I've run into this problem.
So sad that we've finally gotten a good standard (USB c) but there are still things that look like they should fit together and work, but don't.
The actual problem is that many brick chargers assume that a low current means charging is finished so it cuts the power, this is extra common with battery packs.
You want USB PD PPS for a charger which is much more likely to actually understand that the device wants and should get the specific amount of power it's asking for, either low or high.

I keep looking weird at people who say phones give you cancer and that you should never sleep with one next to you. Same people wear smartwatch with sensors pressing against your skin 24/7

I bought an $80 Seiko because it doesn't require electricity at all. Can't read my emails on it though.

I got a cheapo Xiaomi one a few years back.
Pretty sure it just makes the heart rate up and infers it from how many steps you're doing.
When it gets wet, it randomly skips songs on Spotify.
I've got one of the bands (10, I think). That seems to be a solved problem. I can't interact with it in the shower, but it doesn't go haywire.
As for the heart rate, it's at least consistent. It matches what my blood pressure measurements report, and follows exercise, rather than steps.
I'm bad at breaking or losing watches. I don't buy expensive smart watches, I aim for a cheap, functional one.

Crap, I really fucked that up. Meant to reply to your previous comment in the thread... And I didn't even finish my thought. I need more coffee before replying lol.
I meant to ask if you have encountered shakshuka and posted on your blog
