What is the best degoogled tablet for an artist?
(lemmy.world)
iPad.
please check What is the best degoogled tablet for an artist? - Lemmy.World as it is updated
- ipad
- I realize my title is confusing, when I say degoogle I really meant completely Open Source and private.
- ipad with network disabled?
- not feasible in my use case
- apple backdoor is highly likely in my opnion
- Of course I don't have any proof, but I would assume it runs camera and microphone without us knowing even when the network is disabled. The data is collected and processed locally and send to apple server when network is enabled
- speech recognition is integrated in many app and sold to advertiser
- I doubt apple could resist the temptation of money and the threat from government not to activate microphone and camera without us knowing
- apple is as disgusting as google
- but of course if this is the only choice ...
If you are this paranoid, you should be using pen/pencil and paper.
I would write a rebuttal to each point, but I don’t care enough to do so.
also if you dont even care why paste your comment under my other cross post?
Because you posted in two spots.
if you dont even care why comment?
if you are suggesting apple is better than google intermsof privacy I suspect you are a apple fanboy
your argument: apple is good for privacy
mine: apple is bad for privacy
I believe people who are not apple fanboy could see clearly who's the idiot here
Murena released a tablet with /e/OS, and it's also possible to install it on other tablets. It's still quite early after the release so I am not sure there will be reviews from artists on their specific use of the tablet but you can consider it another option.
Edit: didn't UBPorts release a tablet version of Ubuntu Touch?
I'm afraid I will have to agree with with @sic_semper_tyrannis@lemmy.today Murena tablet seems to be too expensive and less featured compared with pixel tablet + grapheneOS
Ubuntu touch could be an alternative though
I haven't heard of this before. The name was curious "Pixel" so I compared it to the Google Pixel tablet and it's basically identical except for the WiFi chip. You could get a Google Pixel tablet for way cheaper and install Graphene. The Murena tablet seems like a ripoff and it has an account too (not sure if it's optional)
