Yeah but then you have to deal with the stupidity of the UK government. Which is currently trying to out perform Florida for dumbest politician of the year.
I installed it on my HTC one and have used the exact same wallpaper and layout ever since. Change is scary and let's be real.
Who the ACTUAL fuck pays attention to the launcher they are using. They find one they like and then unless something breaks they forget they are even using one.
This is quite literally objectively not true. It's literally the exact opposite in fact... Your phone is more secure then every other standard method of payment that interacts with your bank account.
In the case of theft of your physical person then your phone is still more secure then any cards or checkbook. Case is literally the least secure in the case of physical theft.
I get not likely the whole corpo aspect of things. But don't be a fucking idiot and ignore reality and the facts whole doing it.
Don't forget that most of us are getting priced out of the hobby in general. It's not fun when you can't afford to play around in your own hobby. You move on and find a new hobby.
I once came across a pair of some kind of synthetic silk man thongs. That had three pockets. One for your junk, another for your phone and the third for your dick and balls.
They were like 90 dollars a pair.
I guess it's for when you need to be sexy and functional.
If it's federated it's easy to block. If it's not it's too small to care about really.
And if you just remove the ability for federation to function in your country you have fundamentally broken the system making it basically unusable for your people.
The federvise is extremely weak to censorship for your avg joe because it's strongest point the federation system is also it's biggest Achilles heel.
With out federation it's just a series of less useful forums and blogs.
The system is designed to prevent corporate ownership from destroying it. But the idea that you can prevent a government and those in control of the infrastructure from blocking it? Is laughable.
You can in small ways wrong around it but you don't need 100% censorship to win the game of cat and mouse. Even 50% of the biggest instances wins you the game.
As someone who is friends with many furry gay liberal IT dudes and dudettes.
I can't name a single one that wouldn't bend the knee the moment their job is threatened and their option is getting fired and risking their entire career or just being a good cog in the machine.
The people who bend the knee the fastest tend to be the ones most at risk of being abused by the powers that be should they not comply. It's the very fundamental reason that revolutions tend to be so explosive. There's a LONG build up of people not pushing against authority because of fear and security.
So till the breaking point where the gay furry liberals have no options and it's death or do what their bosses tell them. You can full well expect them to work right along with the bootlickers. They just are going to bitch about it more in the break room then the bootlickers.
Proton is well past the good enough break point.
Honestly proton is a good choice to start for replacing most of your google/Microsoft suite.
Email, vpn, password manager. Etc. sure it's not the literal best option on the market. But as far as one stop shop. Its good enough.
The privacy and security standards are acceptable and strikes a good balance between secure and obnoxious.
