Just updated to 10 and disappointed to see that you can't automatically activate dark theme after sunset, similarly to night light. Hoping a Magisk module or app can fix this....

I'm glad Google is meeting and exceding one of their promises.
Part of the reason I was excited about Pixel devices and a new commitment to hardware was their promised OS updates. Now that they've received Android 10 (which was not part of that promise for OG Pixels) it makes me feel like they could get to a point where they match apple with their own hardware and pressure other manufacturers to do so as well.
Right now I even see that push already working with some manufacturers and I think it will solve one of the biggest problems with the OS....

Hosting a Minecraft Server on Android
Since Minecraft is popular again, I figured I would write a guide on how to start a server on a decent Android phone. Let me know if you run into any problems and I'll try my best to help!
# Requirements:
1. Android phone that can run Termux and have at least 4GB of RAM
I used a OnePlus 6T with 8 GB of RAM. System RAM usage varied between 5.5GB and 6GB but that could just be my phone.
2. Reliable internet connection

For example, I tried backing up my phone last night since the new 10 install is acting buggy and I want to factory reset, but the backup now button is greyed out and the phone did not back anything up to drive while I slept.
