While I use Vanadium, it doesn’t support the basic Firefox plugins.

To hell. In a handbasket.

You still don’t?

Dunno, for now Ironfox and Vanadium as a fallback work for me on mobile. I’m open to alternative browsers when the upstream fails.

No use cases for this so far.

Mobile service quality is defined by the baseband, which is an immutable blob to the OS. I phone rarely and currently use my old LineageOS phone for it.

I’ve got a support case for my Pixel 7a open due to potential battery issue. If I return it I will buy a different, bigger (6.7") Pixel model. My new Pixel tablet is doing fine so far.

I use tablets to read things when lying down, so notebooks don’t fit.

Matrix (Element), Signal, Telegram. Other stuff probably requires Google services which I don’t use on the tablet. Phone has Google services, but I don’t really use it for messaging other than Signal.

The endgame is that nobody has money and companies go bankrupt. The end.

I’m on GrapheneOS on tablet/phone for time being, but I’m fine going back to a dumphone and a Linux or BSD tablet or convertible.

Marketing. Fresnel lenses are not going to do well with diffuse light.

Supports Linux apps poorly.

Their ChromeOS tablets suck as well. The only reason for me to buy Google hardware is to put GrapheneOS on it.

I’ve made a support request and chose the payout version rather than a free walk-in repair for my 7a. I will be contacted by an agent within three weeks. Probably have to revert to Google stock if I have to send it in.

Ironfox.

Thanks, I wasn’t aware. Need to check my device.

GrapheneOS is the most secure mobile OS and your model is not affected. I’ve got a 7a myself.

Pixel 7a and Pixel Tablet since yesterday here.

On Pixel 9 stock they mention you can disable AIcore in the settings, so I would assume GrapheneOS is unaffected.

Think long term movement patterns, correlations with others such, anomaly detection.

IMEI/IMSI are collected (and immediately linked, hence deanonymized even if SIM was inserted only once) by cell tower operators. Just not bring your device, period.
