No, I use my computer to control my phone, except for the few times I ssh in to do a simple task.

Yeah, I miss my old Polar watch.

I’ll look into the ESP32s! That could be an interesting project.

It’s weird how techies seem to accept leaking wearables. Even the new Pebbles seem to have real privacy issues.

I’m very interested in hearing about your experience with your new Garmin. They do seem like great watches.

Thanks for some nice ideas! Seems Casios are the standard for many.

Another vote for the Casios! Privacy wise the manual way of doing it does seem superior.

I’m open to other solutions! Do you know if the chest straps can sync with a Linux computer?

I use Matrix through a couple of different apps. It works very well for the few communities I’ve joined there.

I’ll look into Casio, thank you for suggesting them!

More happy memes, more people posting about their hobbies, more people solving problems together.
