Well who knows?

I have no problem switching to an alternative is Cromite bellies-up tomorrow.

For now though I’ll stick with it.

The biggest problem is the scarce availability outside the US.

Or should I say, that the biggest problem is software (OS) compatibility with other devices than the Pixel?

My money is on the latter.

Hahaha!

Fuckin epic!

Why?

Cromite is excellent.

Too bad it’s chromium based, but works a whole lot smoother and snappier than Firefox based browsers, oh and safer as well… So for the time being, Cromite it is.

Librewolf on desktop Linux is my weapon of choise.

Hmmm. That could be what’s slowing down the GPS locking on my old android phone I use for my fitness app.

No SIM card or WiFi access. Takes a good 20 min just to get a GPS lock.

That means it fucks up my distance monitoring and time intervals, if I don’t have patience to wait, which I honesty don’t!

The app is basically a fancy timer at this point.

;)

“Old age” disks!

Hahaha. That’s hilarious.

Just like society labeling.

I rather run native than emulation.

That way I get to use 100% of the power at my disposal, for the product I bought.

Yes I’m sure.

Not really searching for 'em though. :)

Oh!

So no need for a google account for using Private Spaces?

The app is in this curated list of great Android FOSS apps.

You made me chuckle.

Thank you for that.

Yeah, I agree.

I played about 30 min then uninstalled back when I was still on Windows.

I don’t know if Bing’s search results are better than Google’s.

They all suck.

I stopped using Whoogle (Privacy engine using Google search) because of the bad search results. Google’s fault of course.

Trying SearxNG now.

Oh for fucks sake - Google!

Seriously??

Hypocrisy at its finest.

But then again, after the 2 seconds of rant, that was expected.

Android is getting more and more “private” while all data is tunneled to Google itself. They are just liquidating the competition.

The way you write tells me you are young.

The older you get (and having a family of your own) the more you enjoy the quiet moments, just like the ones when you sit in an airport, waiting for the plane.

It’s really feels like a weight has been lifted from your shoulders.

Yeah, fucking sheep!

I also thought about those scenes in Wally when I was walking the dog the other day.

Soon all of us will float around in armchairs and never step outside.

Welcome to the new world.

PS: I am old too.

Ouch!

Pierced my heart, that one.

Even Picard gets some metadata wrong on auto. Don’t trust it blindly.

Be careful and only do changes manually.

Key features:

• Schedule for nine social media platforms (Threads, Pinterest, Facebook, TikTok, Reddit, LinkedIn, Dribbble, YouTube, Instagram.)

• Fundamental analytics for almost all social media platforms.

• AI Features: Copilots, AI Auto-complete, Canva-like editor.

Sorry to budge in like this, but I don’t use any of these garbage social platforms, at all. Copilot is also strongly against my belief of the right to online privacy.

The reason why I started to selfhost and use opensource apps/OS, was to get away from all this nonsense.

Lemmy is the only platform I use, used to be on reddit, because the main purpose is to help or to get help/advise on issues. Like the old forums.

I’m a firm believer that social platforms are destroying generations with its toxic/competitive environments.

Rant over.

Shower me with downvotes if you believe I’m wrong.
