This is my current #grapheneOS setup.

I have three distinct profiles on my phone, each serving a specific purpose.

𝗠𝗮𝗶𝗻 𝗣𝗿𝗼𝗳𝗶𝗹𝗲: This is my daily driver, free and open-source apps only. It has everything I need for my daily needs. For privacy reasons, I've excluded #bitcoin and #nostr related applications from this profile to maintain a low-profile and avoid leaking my online identity if someone were to snatch the phone out of my hands.

𝗗𝗲𝗰𝗼𝘆 𝗣𝗿𝗼𝗳𝗶𝗹𝗲: This secondary profile is designed as a decoy. I've installed a bunch of normie apps to make it more realistic, and some closed-source ones that I occasionally need. I rarely use this profile. I only switch to it when absolutely necessary, if you know what I mean.

𝗖𝘆𝗽𝗵𝗲𝗿𝗽𝘂𝗻𝗸 𝗣𝗿𝗼𝗳𝗶𝗹𝗲: This is where my true online identity lies, and where all the bitcoin and nostr apps reside. TOR, E2E chats, secret notes, and files are all here. I only access this profile when I'm alone and confident it's safe to do so.

All profiles have different passwords, obviously. Fingerprint disabled. And I've customized the color scheme of the menus for each one of them, so I can easily tell which profile I'm on.

While inside the Decoy Profile, you cannot see the installed apps from the other two profiles, but you can see that there are indeed two additional profiles on the device. I've taken extra steps to obscure this information by changing the profile picture on all three profiles to solid dark color that blends with the UI, and removed the profile names by using a invisible character, making them appear identical (i know it's not 100% fool proof but it's the best we can do).

All profiles have a pure black wallpaper, and the home screen has no icons, folders or widgets (except on the Decoy Profile). To access an app, I simply scroll up and open it from the default drawer, which displays all installed apps on that profile. This approach saves battery life and adds a slight bit of privacy.

Each profile has its own VPN running continuously, using different IP addresses, with killswitch turned on. All my free and open-source (#foss) apps are installed via Obtainium (aka downloads straight from the source). The closed-source 'normie' apps used in the Decoy Profile are from the Aurora Store (aka downloads from Play Store without needing an account).

Every app installed has most of its permissions stripped away, leaving only the absolute minimum required. Storage and contact scopes are always used.

Microphone, camera, NFC, bluetooth and location services, always turned off, unless absolutely needed for a brief moment.

Finally, I have disabled auto-updates on all apps and the operating system itself (by disabling 'System Updater' app). I want to be in control of my device, I choose when to update. I can't risk crowdstrike-like updates, so I wait a few days before updating.

#privacy #cybersecurity #opsec

is the main profile the "admin" in this case? the one profile that can delete the others?

I ask because ongraphene there'soneprofiles that's the owner

Popups enabled and nsec.app tab open. No luck getting habla to post. All I see is the relays loading.

I'd love to use to nsec.app instead, so happy to help you bugbash

nostr:npub107jk7htfv243u0x5ynn43scq9wrxtaasmrwwa8lfu2ydwag6cx2quqncxg I’m having some issues publishing on nostr:npub1048qg5p6kfnpth2l98kq3dffg097tutm4npsz2exygx25ge2k9xqf5x3nf whats the best way to get support? Haven't been able to publish in 2 days.

This is what I see ⬇️

I'm on desktop, MacOS. Using brave and I think popups might be blocked. Although I can login, no problem, write, format, etc. But then when I hit publish/post, nothing happens. The Relays get stuck loading but never finish posting to the relays. Its loading forever

Noob question, but how can I get the nsec of new set of keys I created using nostr:npub1uf9gd9pax7534dy96mu603nqjlp9mht8az73ka0dy54rcfnvlxasumv8xc ?

Every time I export I get a ncryptsec that I can’t import anywhere.

Also having issues publishing to nostr:npub1048qg5p6kfnpth2l98kq3dffg097tutm4npsz2exygx25ge2k9xqf5x3nf and nostr:npub1w0rthyjyp2f5gful0gm2500pwyxfrx93a85289xdz0sd6hyef33sh2cu4x but not sure if the login method has something to do? I’m logging in using nsec.app nostr:npub1l2vyh47mk2p0qlsku7hg0vn29faehy9hy34ygaclpn66ukqp3afqutajft

Any help here is greatly appreciated nostr:npub1xdtducdnjerex88gkg2qk2atsdlqsyxqaag4h05jmcpyspqt30wscmntxy

I’d sit with nostr:npub1qny3tkh0acurzla8x3zy4nhrjz5zd8l9sy9jys09umwng00manysew95gx 🫡

Sovereign Feed Curation > Algorithms

That’s the note

One of the ground breaking things is free will > free speech. What Jack said at the Oslo Freedom Forum.

It can potentially spread hate and all the other bad things. But there no algorithms brainwashing us or driving the narrative of what we should think. No algos telling us how to be or behave.

It can spread hate, but we all have the power now to build our own feeds with the things we like and people we admire and love. Hate stops driving the algo, and becomes just noise that anyone can mute.

I love curating my own feeds. It’s powerful. + no advertisers getting into my feed without my consent.

Nostr changes everything

If I don’t self host, I’m guessing it’s hosted across relays?

Also, I was more concerned about IP address privacy, but decide to go with Nostr. I want to contribute to the space and put my money where my mouth is. Nostr is really powerful and zaps are also a no brainer.

This is super useful and will for sure use npub.pro to build a site for the blog and use the subdomain. Better than sharing a long Habla URL.

This is an amazing tool ⚡️⚡️

Do every creator on the planet a favor and vote for this Nostr panel at SXSW.

Every creator needs to hear about Nostr ⚡️⚡️
