Interesting. What are the App IDs of those both apps?

If they base on Chromite that is probably fine.

Dont use “stable” software people.

Gimp 3 is already very nice! Use it exclusively.

They had this on their homepage, advertizing QKSMS and Bromite as if they were project apps. Which they are not.

So either A: they preinstall apps as system apps or B: they have some form of installer that installs them as normal user apps.

You should have as many apps as user apps as possible.

Maybe they changes this idk. But QKSMS is not a simple SMS app like the one that GrapheneOS implements (the old and hardly maintained AOSP one) and Bromite is an unmaintained Browser which is a huge problem. Cromite and Quik are maintained forks.

Some Archive when they still had Bromite on their page

Could not find QKSMS but that was somewhere

(Feddit just started working again)

CalyxOS implements many random 3rd party stuff as if that was their own.

Apart from 2 (QKSMS and Bromite) being unmaintained, installing random apps as system apps (if this is what they do) means a system update may cause data loss for users, when removing those apps. And it has the problem of a way too high goal that can not be reached. They simply dont maintain those apps, so dont ship them.

Mailbox.org is nice and has calendar which works with TB. They also have tons of aliases in the 3€/mo plan, temporary addresses, enforced TLS encryption domain etc.

This is awesome!

It is online

Those Gaming phones have nonexistent updates, and others are way less secure than Googles and thus not supported by GrapheneOS.

I switched from a Nokia with unofficial LineageOS to GrapheneOS, simply because I need this level of security to feel safe.

It is a huge security improvement. Using a DAC means I need to have USB always enabled (GrapheneOS has a toggle to disable all data which I would otherwise use) and Bluetooth is

• used for tracking peoples movements
• forcing expensive planned obsolescence heaphones with tiny li-ion batteries and proprietary chargers
• also a security threat, as you have an open connection without any reason

The Pixel 9 will have rounded corners with a flat display and a centered punch-hole selfie camera. The power button and volume keys are placed on the right side of a flat frame. The smartphone will feature a 6.03-inch display, slightly smaller than the Pixel 9 Pro’s 6.1-inch display.

In terms of dimensions, the Pixel 9 measures around 152.8 x 71.9 x 8.5mm, and 12mm with the rear camera bump, OnLeaks tells us.

So imitating Apple, a bunch of useless stuff like “adaptive touch depending on environment” and wireless charging.

Still no headphone jack.

Wow.

Yeah but their phones dont get reasonable Updates and are less secure…

Nobody caaaares give us small phones with headphone jacks, thanks <3

I find it easy to use and use both, Noscript for Javascript (all opt-in), UBlock for adblock (badness enumeration) and “cookie autodelete” (on mobile, for opt-in keeping cookies and deleting the rest)

Oh wow, now Google can scan my photos there too!

What proprierary Javascript is needed for core functionality? 😅

Proprietary firmware on Google Pixel, blobs in Dasharo Coreboot.

On Android there are tons of video and image editors embedded in Whatsapp, Telegram, Instagram, Snapchat, Tiktok etc. but nothing comparable.

I find Desktop video editors confusing but I use Footage (GNOME) and “OpenVideoEdit” on Android.

Librewolf, their devs seem hella inactive but their builds are automated. Tbh I would prefer a working arkenfox more. Made my own softening and install script but its pre-alpha and I will likely rewrite it again in some time.

Explain? Android 14 is just Android 13+, they actually fixed stuff like the wifi and bluetooth toggle acting the same.

I didnt touch Google Android in years, so Google Android for sure the last tolerable has to be around 9.

But using GrapheneOS or something else, Android is very very nice. It just always works, is fully FOSS, extremely secure etc. When my Linux Laptop crashes, I will always have my phone as backup.

I dont care about screens at all… low refresh rate, low energy consumption, very dark lowest brightness, small.
