Linux is inconvenient at times but so is Microsoft at all times. Atleast you can fix your problems on Linux

Would recommend CachyOS, especially if you have a nvidia card

Agreed, grapheneOS seem to care more about security than privacy perhaps

It seems easy enough to install /e/os afterward. Thinking about buying the phone in store

Been looking at the Fairphone 6 and damn, support until 2033? That's actually insane.

The whole replaceable parts thing is pretty sick too. Battery goes bad? Just swap it instead of dropping $800 on a new phone or getting the battery replaced for $100

Probably gonna throw /e/OS on it too because why not.

What's everyone else using? Anyone actually have experience with Fairphone or am I just getting hyped over nothing?

I am currently trying out Summit, crazy nice app so far

Brits can get around Discord's age verification thanks to Death Stranding's photo mode, bypassing the measure introduced with the UK's Online Safety Act. We tried it and it works—thanks, Kojima by twikz in c/technology@lemmy.world

I just made the switch to Lemmy and I'm curious what everyone's using to browse it. Looking for recommendations for both mobile and desktop.

Mobile: Been testing a few apps.

  • Voyager's been solid so far - clean interface and works well. Only downside is no push notifications.
  • Also tried Boost but it has some display issues - embedded icons don't show up right and GIFs in comments are way too small.

Desktop: Still figuring out what to use here. What do you all prefer?

Any recommendations would be helpful. Thanks.

Regarding Apple, That's what I feel too, but I don't feel like going Pixel and GrapheneOS or fairphone etc.

But I still want to optimize my privacy and move to open source alternatives where I can without sacrificing too much

Making the jump from Samsung to iPhone soon, mainly for privacy reasons. Want to cut Google out as much as possible while I'm at it.

What I'm planning so far:

  • Mailbox.org instead of Gmail
  • DuckDuckGo for search, would prefer something even better
  • Safari with all the privacy stuff turned on

Where I'm stuck:

  • What about YouTube? Just use the web version?

  • Google Drive alternatives that actually work well?

  • Best way to store photos that aren't big greedy corps?

Questions:

  • Any must-have privacy apps once I get the iPhone?

  • Settings I should change immediately out of the box?

  • Services I'm forgetting that are probably feeding Google my data?

Note: I prefer Apple over Google and I’m not ready to go full privacy-hardened, I want to find a balance between convenience and privacy protection.

So I'm moving from Samsung to iPhone soon, mainly because I despise Google. Want to cut Google out as much as possible while I'm at it.
