#degoogled

Da ieri pomeriggio sto provando ad usare giornalmente un telefono"Degooglato" (pixel 3a con LineageOS)

Per adesso, le uniche "mancanze" sono le app bancarie, che vogliono essere legate solo al vecchio telefono e sicché o le trasferisco su questo o le lascio lì.
Per il resto, sembra per ora che la batteria regga meglio del previsto.

Ah, e whatsapp. Lì c'è lo zoccolo duro dei parenti e amici stretti. Quello difficilmente, purtroppo, riuscirà a sparire.

This is some bs. If AOSP development is made less publicly accessible it does NOT " simplify things for developers" but rather it hinders it for de-googled privacy respecting ROMs and their device ports. The need for continued and ramped up efforts developing alternative mobile OS's, like Ubuntu Touch, Sailfish OS, Droidian, Mobian, Postmarket, etc. is even more apparent with this move by Google.

Ars Technica · Google makes Android development private, will continue open source releasesBy Ryan Whitwam
Continued thread

It's already natural for me to find a photo in immich seconds after taking it.

Once I set up proper remote backup for it and test restoring it...it's good enough for prime time for me.

Next on the path to become #degoogled is location history.
It's very convenient at times, despite being one of the most intrusive tracking. I mean, it's literally tracking.

My #HomeAssistant instance already tracks me and my wife, I need a place to store our location history.

Also, wenn ich das richtig verstanden habe, funktioniert #UnifiedPush mit #Molly und #Nextpush nur, wenn du einen Molly-Socket irgendwo laufen hast: github.com/mollyim/mollysocket
Das heißt vermutlich wird Molly bei dir aktuell immernoch über den Websocket die Benachrichtigungen empfangen.
Ich habe ein #degoogled Android mit #grapheneos und ohne Play Services. Darauf konnte ich mit UP und Mollysocket (Airgapped) den Akkuverbrauch von Molly auf einen Bruchteil (< 1%) verringern.

No hace falta tener ningún conocimiento previo, solo interés por aprender a liberarse de las bigtech y mantener aún así una vida digital activa.

¡Sumate este miércoles al streaming de cybercirujas!

@MadeyeTheCarnaptious @suearcher @dee I've been reading about #degoogled phones for some time. They use proper open source Android and connect to no Google servers and gives them no data. But I thought installing de-googled android was beyond me but now I see you can buy a de-googled Samsung A5 for £93 (UK) so I'm giving it a go. It won't run apps requiring GPS but so long as I have Firefox, Signal, Mastodon, Bluesky I will be ok. I might put a cheap sim in my old phone in case I need map

/e/OS sprawuje się wyśmienicie!
w sumie nie zmieniałem wiele, jeśli chodzi o apki i launcher (pozostaję przy świetnym minimalistycznym KISS Launcher)..
jedyna zmiana dotyczy Masto. olałem Tusky'ego na rzecz powrotu do FediLab..podstawowe aplikacje u mnie: Firefox, Feeder, Monocles, AntennaPod, SchildiChat, Transistor, InnerTune, Tmux..
