average Phoronix forum user unfortunately 💀

but Phoronix' journalism is good

(which is why I only read the articles through my RSS readers and never go on the site or associated forums)

unfortunately Futo seems to only be source-available and not libre software :/

though I can +1 the Heliboard recommendation! idk when they added it but it finally has a multilingual keyboard function :)

I'm so glad the project isn't stale, thank you devs! I have been using Voyager the last few months but nothing is quite on the lvl of Eternity

(and tbh Voyager feels too iOS-y for me)

seems like a good middle ground tbh. No cryptocurrency will ever reach the adoption of fiat. This could make online transactions that would otherwise be made over your creditcard, bank or insert fintech like Paypal quite a bit better

And I'd rather have this than a "digital Euro" or "digital Yuan"

before I set up and try out 5 different apps, I thought that I'd get some opinions first

I am having some trouble in picking one of the habit trackers available on F-Droid/Izzy-on-droid. Which one would you recommend or maybe you know another good free/libre one (from other repos or sources in general)?

The ones in my scope thus far are:

TimePlanner has also caught my eye but it seems to be quite a bit more than a simple habit tracker

It is ironic, but that's the best you can get in terms of security on Android, which is why GrapheneOS supports nothing else

[-] qweertz@programming.dev 14 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago)

Lineage OS is a shitshow when it comes to privacy and security

(no locked bootloader, using Google DNS by default)

From what I understand, GrapheneOS has the goals of being the best of the best when it comes to Android security.

There is and always will be CalyxOS or DivestOS for a wider range of devices (both are still much better than the likes of LineageOS and Pixelexperience)

Their network seems to run on some crypto bs, don't see a reason to use it over Briar or SimpleX for that matter

Like I can just host a Tor node or self host SimpleX

From their website:

As online advertising becomes ever more ubiquitous and unsanctioned, AdNauseam works to complete the cycle by automating ad clicks universally and blindly on behalf of its users. Built atop uBlock Origin, AdNauseam quietly clicks on every blocked ad, registering a visit on ad networks' databases. As the collected data gathered shows an omnivorous click-stream, user tracking, targeting and surveillance become futile.

AdNauseam is a free browser extension designed to obfuscate browsing data and protect users from tracking by advertising networks. At the same time, AdNauseam serves as a means of amplifying users' discontent with advertising networks that disregard privacy and facilitate bulk surveillance agendas.

Just use Librewolf on desktop, Mull on your phone and be done with it

also I'd recommend Adnauseam instead of ublock. It's based on ublock but clicks on ads inseatd of blocking them.
Basically a form of protest against surveillance capitalism and obfuscation against it's methods.

They probably just want to cut down dev costs by outsourcing to ~~unpaid interns~~ volunteers
