I couldn’t finish the video, it made me physically uncomfortable because of the cringe, lol. His team is totally at fault for this.

Why don’t you elaborate and say why?

They just need to learn how to trick Google’s Integrity API

I bought a Pixel for it (I needed a phone upgrade) and installed GrapheneOS immediately after bringing it home. There was a little bit of friction because a few things weren’t working out of the box for me, like Android Auto and a few apps that use GPS (I tried to Pokemon Go, for example) but all these issues went away eventually. The only thing I miss is tapping my phone to pay for things, but this isn’t a GrapheneOS issue, (bank/card providers in north America and their reliance on Google Wallet/Apple pay are). There are financial institutions from other countries that offer tap to pay using their own app.

I love being able to select what files/contacts each app has access on my phone. I like being able to disable my camera/microphone for all apps with a simple touch.

we calling signal a multi billion dollar company now

Got it, you’re just here to bait people.

You should also link Ariadne’s post saying she rather use signal, but that would be against the tone of your post, right?

How can you be sure your VPN provider isn’t logging or getting information about your traffic?

She who?

I stopped using Telegram as soon as I learned their chats aren’t E2E encrypted unless you create a secret chat. Their advertising is so misleading. Even WhatsApp is more private than Telegram.

Funny seeing this here after someone linked a log of him kicking a transfem user that was flirting with his “custom AI” on IRC, lmao

I am failing to see how the highlighted text is saying that they will implement it. My understanding is that they are evaluating yhe situation. Am I wrong?

It depends on your bank. I have brazilian banks that work perfectly well with tap, they just don’t rely on Google Wallet.

I hate the UI, it looks/feels too much like Slack

What is the alternative to Ubuntu (lets pretend snap doesn’t exist) if recommending someone a distro where you don’t need to use the CLI to install apps?

Unfortunately there are many apps that can’t be found on flathub/discover.

I was always curious but never moved over completely because I had this idea that it was difficult to run things (games, etc). I had a laptop with dual boot with Ubuntu for the longest time, then I started to use WSL to code.

The thing that made me finally switch was the steam deck. It showed me it was possible and now we don’t have a single machine with Windows at home.

Thinking about it now, I don’t know why everyone kept recommending to use Ubuntu, it was probably one of the main reasons why it took me so long to switch.

Before I migrated to Linux I used to do this until I got tired of windows killing WSL without any warning

Yes I know Syncthing but I cannot aford to have the same 200GB of files on 4 different devices. I need the space.

It was too cringe I couldn’t finish it

I don’t get it either. Most of us just want to help by signaling there is an alternative but maybe people are resistant to let go because they paid for Plex, I think.
