  • I mean they're not wrong... Their motives are suspicious, so you use a VPN. 😁

  • Yea, it's gets to sounding like playground argument tactics "nuh uh!" (which is basically sophistry).

    Even when I'm being genuinely curious these days, I try to ask for a source by making it a convo, like "do you remember where you came across that or what should I search for to get good results", instead of "source?".

  • My problem with Cloudflare is as you intimated - they're tracking everything because they as a man-in-the-middle.

    Eff cloudflare, I do everything I can to keep my traffic away from them.

  • I have no issue with my older Pixel devices. You're use-case isn't everyone's use-case.

  • You think this wouldn't happen elsewhere?

    It's not just an American thing, it's an asshoke thing, and those people are everywhere, and will always find a way.

  • Just use apps like Hermit or Native Alpha and use the banking website like an app.

  • Only because Graphene is about using a security chip.

    Lineage isn't, so runs on more devices. I'd argue most people don't have risks that require the security of Graphene.

    But the moment another phone manufacturer decides to use a similar security chip, Graphene will be on it.

  • Can I install an independently compiled version of iOS an an iPhone, equivalent to Lineage or Graphene?

    I'm currently running a fork of Lineage called DivestOS. That's 3 more versions of OS than available for iOS.

    Stop acting like they're the same, because they're not. I use iOS for my work devices, and have since 2010.1 my personal devices are Android, because iOS won't allow me to do things as simple as move files the way I need to.

  • Much more limited.

  • There's a world of difference between iOS and Android.

    Just look at Lineage and Graphene. Both independently compiled versions of Android. Show me the equivalent in iOS.

  • Run Lineage on your phone of choice.

    Or if you're paranoid, a Pixel with Graphene.

  • what can't I get in the Play store that I actually want

    Well, for starters, versions of apps without Google play store tracking. Or without GMS/Firebase so the apps aren't constantly being awakened whenever someone else decides.

    Or old apps that Google has decided you don't need anymore because they "won't run" on current versions of Android, yet work fine.

    Or, any app category that Google doesn't permit you to publish to play, like my system wide ad blockers.

    Or apps that aren't malware, since Play store is the single greatest source of malware.

  • Google plans to begin verifying the identity of all developers who distribute apps on Android, even if it's outside the Play Store, starting September 2026

  • Exactly.

    If most people don't root or sideload, where are they getting malware from?

    Oh, yea, Play store.

  • SMS Forwarding

  • Yep this is what I'm doing currently, with Lineage as the phone OS and Monocles for XMPP on the phone.

    I don't use voice, so I don't really care about it anyway. If you need voice, the Cheogram XMPP app can do VOIP.

  • Are space and time really 2 separate things? Why can we describe the first 3 dimensions in terms of space, but then we switch to time when we move to the 4th?

    I can align as many sticks parallel to each other as I want.

  • Weirdly, the math at the quanta level works in both directions (time-wise).

    I guess something happens when you get a few atoms together that changes this.

    Maybe AbouBenAdam has some insight.
