So another win for graphene compared to other custom roms.

sure, you can, as long as your bank has an NFC payments app. You don’t get Google wallet with any custom ROM.

It might work for Whatsapp without Google services, but how do you get notifications?

Blink Home is Amazon Blink cameras app.

Technically yes,but they don’t have the Titan chip and it’s technically a bootloader lockable Aosp. You have iodé or or /e/os for that also.

Unfortunately, giving up Google services brings other issues - depending on your use cases (i.e. no NFC payments, not all apps are compatible like Blink Home or Whatsapp).

Having Linux on the phone is a far better option IMO as you’d have a lot more freedom to “fix” things.

Graphene is great for the security and privacy innovations they offer, including the sandboxed Google services and Play store.

not as a daily driver, unfortunately. At least for now

I almost regret not going for the pixel 10 instead of fairphone 6, but it’s fine. We’ll get there too.

Passkeys are a good idea with an insufficient compatibility issue.

In self host vaultwarden and it’s great with my passkeys and very convenient.

So F-droid “evolves” to become F-droid Basic?

The only way you should trust anything bridging is if you self host it.

Matrix with WhatsApp bridge is the only way to properly use that.

I can’t even look at that for long. It looks like a camera CSV.

molly is no longer maintained properly. It’s worse than signal as last molly version is from Jul 31 and last signal is from Sept 11.

i would think twice about using molly as the only benefit over signal is db encryption.

That only incentivizes people to use Tor more ,to get around bullshit bans. Nothing can truly be banned if you know the minimum necessary to “unban” yourself.

Red star os is a much better and safer choice for him.

Fedi is only satisfying to a small subset of us forum/reddit type lovers. It is what it is,but we are sticking with it for better or worse.

The rest can have their shit stained corpos and live in lukewarm denial forever. I don’t really give AF.

hey guys, we’ve spoken before related to supporting konform as a flatpak and I think you’ve asked me if I could share my flatpak builder yaml, but I’ve completely forgotten to reply. Please let me know if you still need it and I will send it over to you.

Which major distros rolled over? AFAIK only systemd - used by the large majority of distros - added a field in some config json related to age. It’s not being used ATM anyway.

i can’t even get an SSL connection to this site.

Wells, it really is baby’s first space game. Kids are having a blast playing this I guess.

For the rest of us, it’s still an ocean deep as a puddle, no matter how many settlements or space stations you own.

It was, is and always will be a boring ass repetitive game.

I love how this is showing you an ad for a LG tv at the end of the article. Priceless.

Or Librewolf

But what stops LG from convincing the Ubuntu maintainers to make an LG variant of their supposed driver to magically appear in your snap or apt package repository? You hope to God they don’t, but the danger is always there.

What a convoluted way of saying Linux is better. And using Ubuntu as reference…
