  • I like Fairphone’s mission but kinda feel meh about their execution. Don’t get me wrong they probably do better than everyone else. But releasing a phone per year isn’t great for the environment. Removing the headphone jack wasn’t for ecological reasons. Making tiny earbuds isn’t in hand with easy reparability. And you can’t upgrade anything !

    I wish they will slow the pace for a release every 2 years with better upgradability. I also wish they would work with GrapheneOS so the hardware and firmware are secure enough for the Graphene team to work on that device.

    But nice that the brand is still alive. I hope they won’t go too much into green washing.



  • Paper wallet (actually stainlesssteel wallet) because :

    I don’t want my Monero private key to be stored on proprietary software aka Ledger I don’t feel confident trusting Trezor because their CoinJoin implementation and the Blockchain Analyst partner of Wasabi (providing the CJ), also expensive honestly MoneroSeedSigner is interesting but it is a signer device and does not store the key, also vulnerable to some attacks that I don’t feel confident personally. Kastello looks dead or gowing nowhere, please correct me if I’m wrong The Monero Passport fork is promising, a bit expensive but will see how it evolves

    I wantto setup an encrypted microSD card backup for my seed. But I need to take the time to do that correctly.





  • Intersting project indeed. Might be nice to have a complete list somewhere so you can simply scroll through it, organized by categories.

    I’ve opened an issue on LibreTube a Piped YouTube client for Android (in beta) for them to accept XMR, they embrasse the idea and added XMR donations in the minute… litteraly, you might want to add them when you have time to do so.

    Also, having a QR on your website is not ideal IMO, what if you or someone else hijack the Monero adress and steal the donations ? I don’t want to check everytime, you should think about a better solution, maybe simply add the URL to their XMR donation link page/anchor ^^

    Nice project will keep an eye on it ;)
