From what I’ve read, the other Android OS’s do not work with any US carriers. I think some folks got them to work with a Pixel/T-Mobile/Graphene combo, but that is not only literally buying a Google phone, it is also limiting me to one carrier. I would get a Pixel, but the whole point is to get away from google, not give them more money.

So can google track users if you watch a youtube video on Peertube?

This is a better list than the ones I’ve seen previously. Thanks for sharing.

I’m in the US so I can’t. Unless I get a Pixel, made by stupid google.

Wait what? Really?

I just use mapquest. It’s not the best, but it’s a step in the right direction, I guess.

Congrats! Good job! I’m right behind you. So close…

What country are you in, and what type of phone/OS did you use?

Also, congrats!

I agree with this. I almost just want to get a dumb phone for calls and a hotspot with a pinephone or something for everything else.

I’m in the US, and unfortunately, there is an escalating data threat with the latest Supreme Court Ruling that will allow uncleared parties (or poorly cleared parties) to access our government personal data. When combined with the broligarchy data, the aggregate of those becomes extremely dangerous to the physical, mental, and emotional well-being of people. Life is short, but we’re in an emergency crisis, in my opinion. Data protection is a civic duty at this point. The carelessness could very well create a caste system here.

Tried a search for jellyfin earlier today, and my tv youtube all would not load it.

I’m having trouble with that too. Maybe we should all start posting videos of cool stuff so it will take off.

They accurately recognized my face from a picture that was over ten years old. I no longer look like I did in the picture. This is going to get bad now that our fascist state authoritarians are everywhere jerking off with their riches and superiority. They have this tech and will do terrible things with it. Impending doom…

Why does everyone dislike snap? I just didn’t want to use Canonical products, but I was unaware that others didn’t like it.
