oh yeah this is a fantastic language learning tool
(although it can bring up problems with tonal languages like Vietnamese, Thai, Mandarin, Cantonese, etc where the lyrics often abandon the words’ inherent tones and follow the song melody instead. )
crunchy was criminal since the get go. their earliest releases were unauthorized reposts of fansubs, for which they already charged subscription fees!
so they started their existence by pirating while making money through stealing fansubbers’ (volunteer btw) work.
yeah, no doubt, it’s not being subsidized.
low income privacy supporters don’t want it subsidized either.
at the same time, they are in fact excluded from this model of phone.
in the universe of possibilities, it’s possible to have an affordable phone with privacy intact that serves more communities, at some time in the past or future.
but not from murena, not right now.
tl;dr no duh.
it’s not.
I’m not blaming Fairphone nor Murena. the economy everywhere is not helping make things cheaper.
it doesn’t change the truth that right now, privacy is for the rich.
1200€???
ok… i guess privacy is only for the rich
edit: privacy via this phone model is only for the rich. you nitpickers happy now?
only thing in the universe/multiverse that is 100% certain…
is humans overestimating certainty.
the OP explicitly said no need for git
does it work across LAN or p2p Bluetooth without WAN like Briar, Cwtch, etc?

they’re not gonna listen to it…
does proton want to be constantly harassed (aka investigated informally without charges nor warrants) by fbi, police, mi5, mi6, Interpol, Europol, etc etc via kyc laws and money laundering laws because a few hundreds/thousands petitioners said “do this”? they would receive even more requests for user data (which often don’t require warrants in many countries btw) than they already receive.
or would they rather continue to enable millions of users to escape censorship while still making lots of money and only sometimes harassed by LE?
in other words do you think proton is a conscience with software attached? or are they a money-making company that has slightly better values than certain other companies?
(rhetorical questions. i know the answers already)
no personal offense intended.

if you’re not actually promoting gmail, you ought to make that explicitly clear.
by pointing out something bad about proton and praising gmail’s version of that, it looks like you’re doing nothing other than recommending gmail in a privacy community.
everyone already knows gmail has high usability and convenience and zero (financial) cost. using it as an example in this community is redundant and ineffective. better to use another e2ee email service as an example.
in all seriousness, palantir and clearview are way more dangerous than most of the other shit going on out there. only Putin has greater max evil potential (when considering not only politics and military but also Russian Mafia and western politician campaign secret donations).
theyre basically Albion from watch dogs legion.
thank you
I’ve heard of “pirate radio” since decades ago but never understood what is pirated about it.
are they broadcasting pirated music? broadcasting from ships committing maritime piracy? drinking Captain Morgan?
thanks for bringing this to the anglophone community
