I understand your frustration, and as I said they should improve (though that probably requires time and money). The SNCF shows that it is possible. > Even horse and carriage would be better. How does the existence of the DB prevent you

And I'm fine with you wanting root on the device you own. But you were implying that not having root means that you don't own your device. I disagree with that. You can totally own your device and not be root. I think it is import

GrapheneOS currently has like half a million users and growing. And many of those users would love to not be forced to have a Google Pixel (even if those are really good phone). The question for Motorola is: "given the cost of meeting

Yeah I think the message is really "Motorola will meet the requirements of GrapheneOS in the future".

I don't think they will ever do that. If they want to compete with Android, they need hardware attestation [1], which requires that they get recognised as a trusted Android alternative. If they distributed rooted versions, then banks a

How good is it for the environment / e-waste? If you buy a used phone every year from someone buying a new phone every year, it means that you both use one phone every two years, right? It's a lot worse than buying a new phone and

I am pretty sure that they know about the delays. A nice thing about the Deutsche Bahn is that they exist . It's not the case in every country in the world. Sure, they can improve, but it seems possible. The French SNCF has improved

I don't know how to answer to this, other than you seemingly don't know Android so much. Everything you describe here is normal on all Android (e.g. differences of UI or differences of default apps). F-Droid has nothing to do with

I don't know if you ever write blog posts or anything like that, but I would love to see explanations about how you made those estimations. I honestly wouldn't know how to even start :-).

Very interesting, thanks a lot! I assume CCTV surveillance cameras are usually fine because people cannot go and stare at it from very close then :-).

The problem I see is that in our society, CEOs are chosen for their ability to convince that they can increase productivity. Not for their ability to improve the life of people. Just like the paperclip AI issue, CEOs are optimising for arbi
