Thanks for the clear explenation! Further comments say it’s a pretty neutral identification, but to me it sounds like there’s two sides of it and one is bad. I presume this feeling is incorrect?

Pardon my ignorance, but what does cis mean?

If you main issue is the need to download apps from the Play Store, consider Aurora Store.

No app on GOS has root access. Not even Play services, the whole point of the sandboxing. You remain in control over the app’s permissions, as you mentioned.

[…] and as another user said they are somewhat sandboxed.

I was shocked to find out that the hardest part of the installation was finding a Chromium based browser on PC lol

All you have to do to install GrapheneOS is press one button in the WebUI. No other ‘ROM’ has been easier to install.

I’m glad if they take my account down for me, actually

Makes sense. Whenever I open Firefox, of opens on the (empty) homescreen where I can start typing in the URL bar right away. But everyone has got their own ways!

It gets me wondering, I have never use a search bar widget in my life and I find them rather setting in the way… My search bar is just 1 tap away inside Firefox, which is also on the desktop… I’ve not seen many people around me use it

Do people really use it?

I suggest Droid-ify over the F-Droid store for ease of use, but both work fine

To me I love to have control over what I update, I agree with it not being inconvenient. For other it might so it’s not really necessary to be mean about it!

Definitely do! I also suggest Droid-ify for FOSS apps :)

It does function just like any other phone so far I’ve tested. No app that simply doesn’t work. And if it doesn’t, you can simply exploit the GOS hardening in settings to improve compatibility. You overall have more control over any app, which I like

What?

Yup. Fearing the same as well. All I’m asking for is a car, not a Windows computer.

Some people are so greedy smh

I just love how Raymond thinks about donations. “Money is not my motivation.” And forwards to the people that contribute the most by provoding filter lists for everyone!

What I have been doing ^

@PugJesus wya?

Why did everyone get so political lmao

Been using Proton for over 4 years now, and have had no issues with it. I don’t use folders or tags that much, but if you are a paid member, you get unlimited of those. They recently announced calander invites (I personally never want to use them) and it looks like it should work fine. Proton also has unlimited aliases to hide your actual address, which I use all the time (coming over from SimpleLogin.)

The bundle (mail, VPN, calander, pass and drive) is really bang for the buck for what you get, even though you don’t use some of them. You can always upgrade to it later if you wish. And in case you don’t plan on paying, the free versions work just as you expect!

If you have any questions, just ask!

Fuck this is accurate

The whole reason I got rid of windows update and where my hatred towards windows started

Both public traffic and driving sounds pretty cheap to me. Insurance, road tax and fuel gets me on 200 bucks a month… Public traffic takes way longer and is more expensive somehow… (Netherlands BTW)
