Terribile… Per me in particolare per mull, ma DivestOS era uno dei migliori progetti in circolazione. Purtroppo immagino che fare tutto da solo sia insostenibile, e senza supporto adeguato e con le cose che si complicano ogni giorno di più era scontato sarebbe finita così. Mi dispiace moltissimo, è un colpo durissimo per tutta la community

Yeah, qwant, the same search engine with complete reliance on huawei and bing, who asked to deactivate adblocker to use their page. Qwant isn’t privacy focused, it’s just marketing

Try with LineageOS4MicroG docker image (you can build a stock LOS with that). Anyway after the first time next builds should be faster. The biggest problem will be compatibility, probably the new LOS you build will be incompatible with the older kernel version built for your device, and you will have to (at least) fix some bugs and find some workaround

Imho it’s marketing. The game is bad, writing is bad, gameplay is boring after a while, it seems (except for technical optimization) the game itself is a big mobile game. The “woke criticism” is exploited by ea to sell more, since it create engagement and hide the real flaws of the game

The name “lineage” is because it’s a “descendant” of cyanogenmod, not because it’s intended for older phones

It’s not just paranoid, it’s totally toxic and aggressive. He attacked and verbally abused dozen of different project for naive reasons, and spread FUD and slanders about other developers and projects

Litterally one of the most famous tech guy on the web and one of the most influential voice of the “repair yourself” movement, on the internet for years

If I’m ever gonna read this thing I would go straight in the center and touch the damn thing. I don’t think this is a good warning message

Bluetooth give a lot more information about your surrounding (what device your phone detect or connect, for how much time, distance from objects, etc.), not only from your phone alone, but from other people phones who have bluetooth on and e.g. never disable any tracking from google services too. And the Mac address for bluetooth never change, so any device (and tracking company) will know you is forever you. Bluetooth is a privacy nightmare, and this is totally a dark pattern. People not knowing what they’re doing is of course a thing, but it seems just a usual bad practice by google, who like to manipulate especially not tech-savvy people

Those are what I use 😁. You can check here for some trusted repo https://t.me/fdroid_repos

Exactly

I’m conflicted about sponsorblock, I usually hate youtuber sponsor (since those are usually scam) but I don’t know if there is a more ethical way to earn money from ads, since donations aren’t usually enough

Lol, this is great

Grazie ❤️

Phones in India can be bought for near 50$, and that provide everything a common citizen (and I mean mandatory government app and messaging) need. And 50$ still isn’t cheap for most of the population. It’s a totally different economy than usa

Ce lo chiediamo tutti in sala

I miss those comics. I know the author is a shitty human, but his strips were great

Millions of people in the world don’t know to have a choice or even can’t stop using google products. Google has a near monopoly and it isn’t just something you can totally evade

You’re right, I’m dumb. Nextcloud has a e2e plugin, but you have to lose a lot of functionality, and I still think it isn’t worth it if you host your own instance
