Gotta buy a different phone then

But like, where do I download all my games from?

I switched to GrapheneOS like 4 years ago and at first I was bummed that I could no longer tap my phone to pay. But it’s fine. I still go out with my wallet in my pocket, so it’s no problem to just tap my bank card really… I’ll take privacy over convenience thanks

Yeah, pity is not available worldwide

I’m honestly kinda sick of this. Sure, Google’s decision to try to lock down their devices to prevent installing unsigned apps is concerning for FOSS. But can we all just calm down a bit?

Linux isn’t going anywhere, and neither is hardware that supports it. Yes, is possible that Microsoft or even Intel (now that Trump has bought into it) might try to do some sketchy shit. But the open hardware market is starting to look promising. Look at MNT, System76, Pine, Framework etc…

I agree times are scary and everything is looking kinda bleak, but your best option right now is to completely boycot (as much as possible) Google, Apple, Meta, Microsoft etc. Just stop using their shit.

Buy up old PC’s, turn them into home servers and self host as many services as you can.

I’m confident GrapheneOS will continue and we will still have f-droid after 2027. But I’m an optimist.

I just hope that the Graphene devs continue to support the last supported versions of Android that allow installing apks.

I couldn’t be happier with my P7 that has been running Graphene since day one. Zero Google. Zero problems

It’s time to start self hosting your own services people!

Chimera is cool, and that’s coming from someone who uses Void and Alpine and NetBSD. I’ve not run it on real hardware yet, perhaps I’ll give it a try.

It’s hardly overlooked. It’s been widely known for many years that cheap fast fashion is one of the worlds worst pollutants. Stop buying from shein, h&m, tkmax, and all the others. Buy quality clothing that will last a few years at least.

He’s correct

Not much of a Manifesto…, that’s just a Note my dudes.

The fact that this is legal in the US is just another reason why US politics is completely fucked. The people didn’t just elect the person, they elected the party. If she no longer wants to be a Democrat then she should resign. Here in Australia, that’s what you do. You want to join the other party? you resign an then you need to be re-elected for the party your represent. It’s fucking insane to be able to just go, nup, I’m switching sides.

If that’s allowed, why don’t don’t smart, well spoken Dems campaign as Republicans to get the Maga votes then switch to Democrat after being elected?

I actually laughed out loud at this. Holy shit

Came here to say exactly this

America, fuck yeah! Here they come to save the mother-fuckin-day yeah!

The solution will be for have developers to fully support Linux. I’d date to say they the majority of people still using windows are doing so because they’re gamers. While Linux has done what it can to support gaming, it’s now up to the game Devs to build games that run on Linux

I love the look of haiku, I’ll probably use it if it ever reaches a stable release.

I’m almost willing to bet that big tech companies are already doing this. They got the motive and the means. No doubt Meta or Google have dedicated some of their servers to mining our Lemmy data in this way.

I cannot stress this enough…
