I need all the protection I can get now Big Subreddit are after me!
If you're not getting security updates then any savings may well be a false economy
ass covering
Does that mean covering it with a picture of your own bum or is that just how I make my memes?
I don't know if there's any precedence anywhere for forcing code to be open sourced, but it's a nice dream!
To be fair to those soulless coldblooded monsters it is literally their job to maximise profits, and if they fail they will be replaced with an equivalent bastard
Exactly, so why is rooting even mentioned?
So the developer has no underlying API cost to justify it and is pocketing it all? Obviously they can charge what they want and people can spend their money however they like, but this seems like an absolute con!
A hundred dollarydoos for an app to view a free website!?
If I just deny the Pebble/Rebble app network permissions will that achieve a similar result?
You’re glossing over a lot of complexity that the GrapheneOS team is doing for you
Not meaning to gloss over, it's their hard work that makes it a nice experience! It's always been the case that some devices are more moddable than others, comparing the ones that are simplest is the only comparison that really makes sense though.
As for users moving en masse it obviously wouldn't be trivial, but the theoretical removal of side-loading wouldn't happen overnight so there would hopefully be plenty of time for more solutions to pop up.
I'd say having a Pixel is the only real blocker, as unlocking the bootloader and factory resetting the phone are both a couple of clicks in the settings that anyone can follow. I remember the days of rooting and installing cyanogenmod on early Android phones and compared to that the process today is really trivial!

@idunnololz@lemmy.world I can recreate it (or at least a similar crash) by deleting all data, opening Summit, logging in, going into settings and setting the post gesture size to 0.75, then trying to click on a post. Changing settings in general seems to put the app in a bad state.
