Tell me how you can set up an Android device and install apps that require Google Play services (like all the most popular and important apps) and not have Google syphone all your contacts details. I mean everything: name, date of birth,

Got my entire family on Signals (sisters, brothers, in-laws, parents, nephews…). We're very happy but could extend that to second degrees(?), to cousins and uncles. We're were close to succeed but we needed help (media, mostly).

If they switch mostly for privacy reason, then starting using Gemini might be counter productive as Google might learn far more about the end-user than if they just did some basic search on any other Android devices. To enable Gemini, one w

I tried GadgetBridge because it cannot sync the activity files (.fit and/or .gpx) so I still had to plug the watch into a computer to keep the actual data. So I ended installing ActivityLog2[0] to do something with the files I had to

>4. Android QuickShare works! Does that require being logged into a Google account? How to ensure Google knows nothing about your shares? I have Graphene w/ Google Play Services (required for my job) and would love a easy way to sha

I contacted my bank, insisting that GrapheneOS is one of the most secure OS on the market and therefore should be supported if they actually care about users' security (it's actually far more secure than all the old, far less secu

That's clearly a Uber problem. I'm also a GrapheneOS and used Uber once -- it worked.

What about charging at work?

by rcMgD2BwE72F 9mo ago
No. It's really easy to install charging points on office parking space and supermarket. You don't need to plug at home when half of the day the car is parked at places with chargers.

How many miles of long trips? A quick search gives me half of them are long distance (50+ miles). Since the short trips can all be done very efficiently on battery (recovering all the braking, too), I guess the weight isn't much of an

No. I'm on GrapheneOS and not tied to Google. You must be thinking of the Google Play Services but these aren't required by GrapheneOS.

Freemium is the way if you're ok with paying forward. Not admium. The online media I support as subscribers don't display any ad. And it's fine. I don't pay for the content, I pay for journalism.

I much prefer to subsidize my neighborhood / friends / colleagues / family / … than have the world sink in ads. That enshites everything. It turns all social media into hate machines. And the cost is only externalized an

Move to Fastmail. It has snoozing and memos https://www.fastmail.com/blog/introducing-memos/ That's the ideal combination. I use it 20x a day. Got an email I can't act on now? Snooze it to when it's

It's secret because they don't tell you exactly what they record and how. Can you?

Of course morality is relative. But still, there's no point to compare something to nothing and say "why bother". Comparisons can be useful.
