As long Google keep it proprietary, you have to assume it’s not good for privacy. Google lies about privacy all of the time. It’s barely been two months since the last time they were found guilty. This is how they operate. It’s just a business expense.

Off topic but what’s the name of the app you are using for Lemmy?

Tesla has always had problems with quality. In an attempt to increase profit and decrease production time Tesla has sacrificed quality control.

Many customers feel the need to do it themselves. So many do this that there are even people making money of it.

Tesla has always been like this. That’s why they have mostly been cheap compared to competition.

Jeg tror ikke det er nok av oss her, men… faen… BÅDE svenskene og danskene, men ikke oss?? Flaut.

**Translation: ** I don’t think there’s enough of us here, but… fuck… BOTH the Swedes and Danes, but not us?? Embarrassing.

No

As long as you don’t mess around with the “Unsafe Features” in the settings it’s very private.

DoidFS can use the camera to take photos and record video. It gets stored in the vault instead of your camera roll. This ensures that other apps never get access to the photo/video, even if they have “all-files access”.

Several other apps does some version of this. If you have tried to export a photo from Signal to your camera roll, you have probably seen this before.

DroidFS does not ask for camera permission unless you try to use this feature. The app does not need the camera for anything else, so if you don’t allow it to use the camera everything else still works.

It doesn’t work on ARM, but Tails is based on Debian so it’s probably going to run on ARM some day.

It’s a nice feature for those that actively enable it and know that it’s enabled, but not for the average user. Most people never change the default settings. Firefox breaking stuff by default would only decrease their market share even further. And this breaks so much stuff. Weird stuff. The average user wants a browser that “just works” and would simply just switch back to Chrome if their favourite website didn’t work as expected after installing Firefox. Chrome can be used by people who don’t even know what a browser is.

First of all, why?

Secondly, I absolutely love it.

I love this. It’s on F-Droid

It’s the reason I stopped using Stremio but it’s also the reason why it remains legal in some countries. Popcorn Time had an option to enable/disable seeding on the settings. I really wish Stremio had the same.

I want to keep my ratio above 10, so I use a combination of several other things to replace Stremio on Android TV. It’s a lot less polished but I get a good feeling from seeding.

The idea lives on. You can use Stremio with Torrentio.

I already used Infinity for Reddit (which Eternity is based on) so it made the migration from Reddit to Lemmy really smooth for me.

Inb4 anyone start saying mean things to eachother. There are a lot of people who have very strong opinions on this.

Btw the people who think it ISN’T can eat shit.

Fire

• If you ignored the smell, maybe your house would burn down.

Electrocution

• If you for example tried to disassemble your power supply.

Blunt trauma

• If you have a big computer on a shelf it might fall and land on you.

This is especially dangerous if you’re a data hoarder. It’s a slippery slope that can result in you scalping stuff like old DVRs for drives. Your computer might get very heavy.

I export my contacts as a file and copy it to my pc, an external HDD and several cloud providers. Anything I store in the cloud is encrypted with Rclone first. There is a nice client available for Android. I don’t pay for cloud storage so I only use the free tiers.

I guess this is only practical if you rarely make changes to your contacts.

I know :( They also removed the 3.5 mm port. It’s getting harder and harder to find a phone with good hardware in my opinion. Makers of phones largely focus on improving stuff I don’t care about.

Yeah, I should be using GrapheneOS. It is the better OS. I absolutely agree. I just don’t like the hardware.

I want a small (max 71 mm width) phone with lots of local storage, a 3.5mm port, card slot, replaceable battery, optical fingerprint sensor, plastic back, IR port and wireless charging.

I understand that I can’t get all of this in 2025, but I’m trying to at least get as much as possible. That’s why I’m probably going to end up getting a Fairphone 6 when it comes out and use CalyxOS.

That’s not the official site. It has an old version (July 2024) and the file might contain malware. You can safely download the latest version from GitHub and find their updated guide there.

If you don’t want to use Github, you can use the site they have linked to which is https://smarttubeapp.github.io/
