Was this recently? It was bad under micay but thought it had improved by now.
I run graphene on several devices and recommend it. I do not participate in much discussion about it through. You can just use the best we got in android and be fine with that.
Discussion forums are the same all over I think. I don't see much difference around graphene here on Lemmy or XDA forum.
Do see this if you got a Swedish vpn connection , sorry could not find it elsewhere https://www.svtplay.se/video/84d7ad5/30-minuter/eu-kommissionaren-ylva-johansson?id=84d7ad5 Nikka system also completely destroyed her arguments , cant find it right now
I kind of followed Ylva Johansson on this issue and more. I am 100 % sure that what she was saying and what she belived is completely different. She is smart. She was also completely destroyed when confronted with IT security people. She is really in the pocket. Anyryone with some opsec knowledge knows it is nothing about child porn, there are millions of ways to distribute that shit either way
Social media. And not in a good way
As alredy mentioned, but also install wise , very easy compared to installing twrp and Micro-g etc. Also Installing GOS and sandboxed playstore in main profile, hand it to someone completely oblivious and they will have no problems using it as they would normally do on stock. Learning to use it in separate profiles is just a matter of getting used to it.
Graphene OS . Best you can get on Android.
I have runned all of them , graphene is is by far the easiest to get around for someone new
Yea but the S in PHP stands for security
There is a reason there are tons of Debian distros. They all make a difference.
PeppermintOS everything you need and nothing you don't. Debian based with extra on top. Runs on 2gb ram , fast. Click install and setup but all the terminal stuff you want.since everyone mentions mint , it was a while since I used it. Felt bloated , perhaps better now. I stil say peppermint even for someone coming directly from Windows
- That makes no sense.
- Vanadium have a different approach than trying to block it , blend in instead.
- Gecko based browser have crap sandboxing
- Again if you have 1 problem adding 1 more makes 2 problems.
Why would you use Chrome webview plus something else? You can't replace just pile on. Not a good idea. https://grapheneos.org/usage#web-browsing
It's only an attack surface minimation , security is better on new generations. I use all since I am in the middle of nowhere. If you don't need it disable it, otherwise let it be
Proton riseup and calyx comes to mind.
I used adguard.dns before now I have VPN that have DNS filter. Disabling 2-3g minimize attack surface but just a small thing use 3 g if you need it. You can use both private DNA in settings and a free VPN if you want.
Start with the basics. Use a VPN preferable a good one payed in crypto /XMR or cash. Use Foss apps only check out F-droid.
Also one that blocks malware and ads. If not use adguard.dns or other that filter traffic
Settings , disable 2-3 G if you always have access to 4-5 G .
Don't change add browsers use vanadium. No gapps obviously.
The more challenging is to just use it as WiFi phone without SIM.
You should probably mention your jurisdiction ,but I'm in EU and have a Dacia , pretty goood lack of stupid/unnecessary features and the console is mostly optional to use. Physical buttons for important stuff and music/calls. Mine is a LPG/gasoline hybrid but most is similar to the EV models.
Least bad in Mozillas privacy review as well. Plenty of electronics still ofc it is needed in any car today EV or not.
You can run any distro you like on it , but peppermint is is my favourite. Everything you need and nothing you don't.
Well I did not? So shut the fuck up
ordered a new phone so I wanted a new SIM for a clean slate. My country require KYC for SIM cards. So i ordered this https://www.ebay.com/itm/295938085941 I see now that the card is being shipped from Israel.
(I'm in another EU country)
Cloning, swapping etc , how bad idea was this on a scale from 1-10? Even if the package is unbroken , I assume someone with physical access (and resources) can do a lot of stuff?
Miss being able to go get one from the corner store. But idea was to load it up by cash bought giftcards.
Also played with the idea of getting a gl-inet portable router and skip SIM card in phone but it is quite a bit of hassle to have another device to maintain and carry...
