If you can find an old android phone, try the Amethyst/Amber/Citrine/Zapstore/Keychat combo for a while. It's a good opportunity to get a Pixel and try GrapheneOS, also. I was always an apple guy, but I got a taste of freedom with GOS and never looked back.
Side note, you should ask the lady of the yarn what she thinks of all this stuff, too. She has a different perspective.
Oh good, thought you were so far removed from iOS that you wouldn't relate to my reaction of "wah, I don't wanna learn a new phone and do hard things!"
Can't recall if I told you or someone else, but I got a second phone years ago to try out graphene and hated life. I approached it wrong, trying to be more super spy than I am capable, and I hear graphene has gotten way smoother since. I don't expect the learning curve is small though. May give it a try again though, feeling like it may be time very soon.
Thanks
Oh yeah, dude, I had the iphone 3g when it came out. Macs, ipods, ipads, the works. I watched the iphone keynote live. 👴🏻
I switched to GOS when it was HARD. Now it's just mostly...different. There are very few things that you just can't do in GOS now. And you have a guide right here if you need one. Pickle Dan is on the journey, also.
Yeah, taking to you and a few others (hi nostr:npub1m64hnkh6rs47fd9x6wk2zdtmdj4qkazt734d22d94ery9zzhne5qw9uaks ) increasingly making me consider it. Also reading a bit about all the spyware on Apple and Google (yuck). Lemme see how far I get with the ham radio thing before I take on too much, haha. Still got a few more good months left in this baby (10 pro) too
lol, same.
