I have a Love/Hate relationship with #amethyst arguably the De-facto #android Nostr client. But on my low-end #xiaomi Mi A2 Lite (2018, #lineage 20) the new #primal #fdroid releases have been a god-send. The note rendering still needs work, but the responsiveness is (almost) on #damus level (yes, I have an #iphone to test)
Congrats #primal team!

I can't stand the trend for #Android icons to be constrained in little white circles. And all the designs are so flat and boring. They become indistinguishable.
I can highly recommend this #OpenSource app - Iconeration.
https://codeberg.org/kaanelloed/Iconeration
It allows you to load *any* graphic as an icon. So all the apps on my phone now have larger, more colourful, and non-geometric icons.
I'm loving #niagara Dots icon pack.
#lineageos without Google apps is as good as it gets if your old phone is supported.
I really tried to like FlorisBoard as part of my #degoogle efforts but at the end it just didn't cut it. Now using Thumb-Key and I'm much happier.

Not in a million years, same as Coinbase.
Bold. But so evil it might be true.
Have them get a crypto-enbled Debit pre-paid card such as Lemon, Belo, Ripio, etc. and directly send them Bitcoin that they can spend anywhere just swiping the card. All have apps in the App Store and Play Store. Later them have them move the remaining sats to a proper wallet for stacking.
On the Simple Mobile Tools debacle
This note has been long in the making, but it really hits close to home. Back when I decided to #degoogle and root my #android devices, a consistent set of Contacts and Calendar apps were not a given. So I settled on the Simple Mobile Tools alternatives regardless of my choice of #ROM at the time.
But then Simple Mobile Tools sold off to the #israel malware industrial-complex, boycotting my #privacy and #security efforts. If you think that is an over-statement consider the elephant in the room:
Fossify to the rescue:
