So, uh…should we just turn off all push notifications now?

Discussion
That’s what I did a few years ago lol
use unified push wherever possible and join me in the fight to persuade devs to give us the choice
This is all so disgusting. nostr:npub1sn0wdenkukak0d9dfczzeacvhkrgz92ak56egt7vdgzn8pv2wfqqhrjdv9 was right about everything.
yes it is and yes he was. one more time for those in the back
Now?? I did that 15 years ago & never looked back… ;-)
someone said it can still be tracked and better to go with a non Apple/Google OS
I literally just asked that question in reply to nostr:npub1z4m7gkva6yxgvdyclc7zp0vz4ta0s2d9jh8g83w03tp5vdf3kzdsxana6p.
I’ve got the GrapheneOS already setup! Just have sit down and make the transition.
I will be transitioning as well.
My Calyx experiment might need to take center stage sooner than I thought.
Imho. New Year’s resolutions are not a shitcoin when applied to appropriate topics of encouragement.
Get with the program. 😂
It’s a fork of graphene, right ?
Thought it was separate, but maybe not? Odell had recommended it over Graphene on a podcast a couple years ago, so that’s all I’d ever looked into. I’d opinions have changed, I’m behind the times. Works well otherwise, tho.
No. Calyx isn't a fork of Graphene.
"CalyxOS draws heavily from the LineageOS community and code."
In my experience Calyx wasn't a good fit. Have had best luck with Graphene. Its reported to be more technical than Calyx OS but I don't find it to be a problem.
The issues most experience is when they try to load no free software and or FOSS that utilizes some sort of Google dependant.
I see! I heard that Graphene is the most privacy focused one
If you haven't used either skip ahead and go for Graphene.
Plan to stay away from apps that require the use of GooglePlayServicess. Then you can ignore installing Aurora Store and or the Grapheme App for GPS.
An important lesson learned for me was, I tried to continue using apps that were Google dependant.
Now, well, if it ain't in Fdroid or I can't side load it from a .apk I don't fuck with it.
Got it ! Thanks! And also you should enable zaps 😏
Working on figuring out "how to shorten LN address". More Rabbit hole...
Muh preference is the most sovereign choice.
sovereign LN URL. I think nostr:npub18ams6ewn5aj2n3wt2qawzglx9mr4nzksxhvrdc4gzrecw7n5tvjqctp424 had a post about it... 🤔
I was told to think of it as security rather than privacy
Maybe both ? 🤷♂️
GrapheneOS is only on a Pixel bc of security reasons. How you use the phone will impact your privacy.
GrapheneOS is both, it is a privacy and security focused OS and would encourage reading of our documentation at grapheneos.org to dispel any myths.
As far as the other mentioned OS I have a previous note you can refer to here:
Also reference this comparison across relevant feature sets...
Is there a good FOSS keyboard? the one I have has weirds issues when using Amethyst when deleting words and whatnot.
Ya the native keyboard is terrible with Amethyst. I’ve had good luck with FlorisBoard
I use Florisboard for swype functionality okay, most AOSP based keyboards unfortunately have the issue.
Graphene without Google Play services would fix this.
will not matter. smartphone compromised down into the chip and so many other ways
#GrapheneOS, it’s your time
Quick….. everyone act surprised. 😂
Been had them off man.
Airplane mode.
Also nobody can distract/ interrupt me from what I'm doing on my phone so It's a win win.
Push notifications are annoying anyways
Is this surprising? The whole OS is constantly pinging telemetry back to Apples/ Googles servers, of course they know everything that's going on their devices 😂
Notifications going through their servers is just the tip.
