Just get a PC at that point if its digital.

Ask a PC gamer to make it as much as a console experience for you as possible if that is what you need.

This is a nice list I'd consider for new phones.

  • Murena (France) with /e/OS (France) on:
    • Fairphone (Netherlands)
    • Hiroh (USA)
    • SHIFTphone (Germany)
    • Teracube (USA)
  • Punkt MC03 (Switzerland)
  • Volla (Germany) with Volla OS or Ubuntu Touch (Germany)
  • Jolla (Finland) with Sailfish OS (Finland)
  • Purism Librem (USA, manufactured in the USA)

Hope you guys don't mind me posting this in this community. Upvote or downvote if you like or dislike it.

Particularly would love a Fairphone. Have considered buying from https://clove.co.uk/ and have considered asking if friends in Europe would be willing to ship.

But before I do, I want your opinions. Does anyone have any good options?

I'm not looking to buy a Pixel nor a Samsung of some cracked convenient store version of a smartphone.

I'm mostly interested in Fairphone due to its B Corp, Repairability, Fairphone 5 supports Ubuntu Touch so I assume 6 will eventually be supported and other Linux versions.

All I can find is either clove.co.uk or I find someone in Europe that's willing to ship.

I've never used GoDaddy. I don't know what it is other than being a domain registrar and also offering Outlook 365 for a higher price.

How would you convince someone of an alternative to it? I'm looking to know what services they offer so I can offer alternatives for them.

Are they a website builder as well?

f-droid's website https://f-droid.org/ has a link to https://keepandroidopen.org/ which says in Google will lock down Android in September,

If you were planning on reformatting your phone to GrapheneOS, LineageOS, PostmarketOS, or UbuntuTouch, now is the time to do it.

I've transferred over my Google backup multiple times. I have multiple "takeout" directories with duplicate data. Some of them are zip files too.

Is there a tool I can use to find and delete duplicate files? I tried letting Dupeguru run, but eventually it said I was out of memory, and it was not useful in finding or deleting anything.

Edit: I'm on Linux.

I'm curious why Fairphone is not mentioned?

Also if you're in Canada, this site ships internationally

Oh fuck, the MAGA crowd has started posting. Get ready for made up stupid shit to distract / confuse you as they are.

Boycott them, even it means resorting to smaller venues. You will likely save money and not feel guilty giving these guys any money.

[-] dudesss@lemmy.ca 25 points 7 months ago

As an alternative, if you wanted something less secure, and more ethical, consider buying a Fairphone. However GrapheneOS does not support Fairphone at this moment.

Props to this guy, but please consider donating to Robby Roadsteamer who's putting in much more of the hard work for positive change and being forced to go to court. Plus the guy is hilarious and awesome.

He only has $46,000 raised so far.

Love you Robby.

"Name one cow you're friends with" is such as asshole response to an industry that sometimes treats animals worse than Nazi concentration camps.

I got an extra 30% battery life after switching to GrapheneOS. I'm guessing whatever is saving my battery, would also bring down the load on the system.

I did notice my phone heats up much less after switching to GrapheneOS.
