@sesivanyblog mám osobní zkušenost: to jednou házeli špínu na chatu na F-Droid, tak jsem zmínil, že F-Droidu za hodně vděčíme. BAN přišel o pár sekund na to. Po x hodinách mě napsal někdo a místo omluvy mi začal vysvětlovat, jak to mají vývojáři GOS těžké, abych to pochopil. V ten moment mi došlo, že jsem s GrapheneOS udělal chybu a měl jsem zvolit tenkrát méně populární #CalyxOS . Chybami se člověk učí 😉

@forteller @ueeu @DresdnerForschungswerk @murena @Fairphone Thanks! Yes, I've looked at #fairphone and #murena . Nice to see that there are options. Running android (I see fairphones can come with it preinstalled) would not be an option, but /e/OS looks interesting. How does it hold up #privacy wise compared to e.g. #GrapheneOS , #calyxos or #LineageOS ? Haven't tried any of those, just read about them. I see very polarised opinions when I search. Little balanced comparison. A plus that you can get a fairphone with /e/OS preinstalled, of course (It's me. I'm "moderately- or non-technical people").

Question to the #android #privacy #degoogle folks:

Are there any low-price devices out there that are reliably getting releases of a de-googled Android? #grapheneos only supports pixels, last time I looked #calyxos also only supported devices from the higher price range. Not sure what else there is out there. Being bitten by LineageOS ending support multiple times I would like to avoid that...

Asking because lots of older family members are using low-price devices (100-200€) and can't afford a pixel or similar (even if it lasts several years longer). Same with kids in the family, where the devices are not handled like I want a 600€ telephone to be handled :-)

I now have Android 15 on my Fairphone 4! Thank you, @calyxos!

People who don't flash a new OS on their Fairphone 4 (and I can't blame them, it's not fun) are still on Android 13! I don't really understand why @Fairphone spends resources developing their own tiny tweaked Android and never being able to keep it up to date, instead of collaborating with Calyx or some other OS developer who are able to get out the latest releases.

Wo es irgendwie geht, nutze ich Alternativen. Was ich ankreide, ist, das es Apps gibt, die unter nicht mehr supporteten Smarthones funktionieren, bei alternativen (aktuellen)Systemen (ohne root) den Dienst verweigern.
z.B. diverse Banking Apps, besonders dann, wenn ich eine ausschließliche Online Bank nutze.

Durch die Hintertür brauche ich also wieder #google Dienste.

Ich möchte einen Vorschlag machen. Wenn in den letzten Tagen etwas glasklar geworden ist, dass man sich auch Dienste aus den USA etc. nicht mehr verlassen kann. Dafür gibt es viele Gründe, ihr könnt sie euch denken, die kann ich ja ein anderes Mal aufzählen. Wenn ich also als Privatmensch digital souverän zu werden, was wäre eine Umgebung die dies weitestgehend umsetzt? Auf dem Gebiet […]
