My Calyx experiment might need to take center stage sooner than I thought.
Discussion
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.
