Wonder if they will make EU-only variant of hardware and software which will be like totally different phone. They already did sideloading, USB-C and now this. What next?

newzit.com for international news, Polsat News for Polish/sport news and Slashdot for tech news. I add them to RSS whenever possible.
I use them constantly on laptop with GNOME. It makes it easier to switch windows with touchpad. On desktop I don’t use them so often, because I forget about them.
Most sites still send domain name in clear text. You can see it in Wireshark or PCAPDroid. You need VPN if you don’t want your ISP to see the sites you visit.
It supported torrent for ages, but it has only one tracker that doesn’t really have very much content. Now qBitTorrent or something else supports it out of the box.
I2P is very slow, slower than Tor. Maybe after more people join, it will be faster. Last time I tried it was painfully slow to even load most eepsites.
If you don’t buy no-name brand phones, you will get at least one major update. Even chinese brands such as xiaomi will provide updates. You can also install generic LineageOS image if your phone can be unlocked some way, official or not. It works on most devices.
But many smart TVs become useless very quick. When I was using 2015 phone in 2020, TV newer than that already loaded the lightweight Google version for unsupported browsers and vast majority sites/apps became unavailable. It used browser that was already 2 years old when it was released and never released an update to it. But when there was root vulnerability, they released a fix after long time of being basically unsupported.
I was using Flatpak and Toolbx exclusively until I discovered Nix. It’s much better than using those two.
I use Gitea as project hosting and personal wiki. I also host Nextcloud for files and news and Jellyfin for movies and music.
In this order.
I’m still using Magisk on LOS 20. Banking app works flawlessly and SafetyNet passes, at least on microg.
You just need to install this module instead of using magiskhide now: https://github.com/kdrag0n/safetynet-fix
Not dying, but decommercializing. Glad to see it, unless people will just go to something worse.
But I think people are overexaggerating how fast and how big this process is. Most people are still on Twitter and Reddit, it’s just some people (maybe 5%) that left. Especially on Twitter, where it didn’t really get worse since it got bought.
They deleted my Reddit account for me long time ago, I’m ahead of all of you.
