@merururuu A note: How thick lines are or aren't is not indicative of AI generated images. It might be a user preference (?), but it's not something that AI is incapable of, and should, IMHO, not be used as a criteria. The rest is accurate, though!

@airkatakana @reyzafany My guess: They left traces on your system that are now detected as a jailbreak, because well, that's what happened. Make a backup if possible, but don't restore - this can and does often backup those traces and you'll have the same issue. Wipe your phone and don't restore.

@Odd_Designz @claroxhj @artnerdx It's not necessary to do that and may introduce compression artifacts, depending on how the programs work.

@arithmoquine @alicemazzy Subjective experience: Quitting vaping was way easier than quitting cigs. Like, the withdrawal felt much harder and different with cigarettes. But I also don't mean Juul vapes or similar with super high nicotine content, I DIYed my juice with ~0-6mg/ml nicotine. YMMV.

@arithmoquine @alicemazzy Also, these stats are subjectively accurate, and even so, it was easier to quit vaping. You usually vape more than you'd smoke: The intervals are shorter because you don't have defined units of consumption, you can just vape all day. But at least for me, it was less nicotine.
