@datacyclist -
Ich find @lud Anmerkung an @kuketzblog Beitrag schon gerechtfertigt - aktuell müssen wir ne Kröte schlucken durch Hardware von Google.
Mir ist das auch ein Dorn im Auge, daher möchte ich wirklich gerne mehr über #Fairphone und #Jolla sowie #Murena hören und wenn die Hardware dafür verfügbar ist auch gerne #postmarketos
Ich mache mir etwas Sorgen um den Fortbestand von #Android falls Google komplett sich zurückzieht, daher finde ich die Alternativen um so wichtiger

Viste le recenti derive sulla privacy sto sempre più prendendo in considerazione di utilizzare un sistema Android libero.
Purtroppo, mi sembra di aver capito, questi sistemi non hanno una grande compatibilità hardware per cui riescono a girare solo su alcuni dispositivi.
Acquistare un FairPhone potrebbe essere una delle soluzioni ma probabilmente non per tutte le tasche.
Avete esperienze in merito?
Utilizzate dispositivi con so liberi e come vi ci trovate?
Consigli?

Welche einfache Schlaf-Aufzeichnungsapp für Android und IOS könnt Ihr empfehlen?
Kriterien:
Es generiert übliche Metriken (etwa Schlafdauer, Tiefschlaf, Leichtschlaf, Wach, Statistiken)
Es speichert die Audioaufnamen
Aufbewahrungszeit einstellbar
Es wertet aus welche Art von Geräusch das war
Daten bleiben auf dem Gerät
kein Cloud- und Registrierungszwang
Ohne Abomodell

@Vivaldi The latest #Android update with the custom icon setting seems to be interfering with the #Arcticons Material You icon set with KISSLauncher. If I try to set a custom icon through KISS, it is not honored. If I choose one via Vivaldi settings > custom icon, the icon updates but the app fails to launch 😲
It's killing my vibe, man! 😂
I'm going to see if I can downgrade to the previous version.
Wie kan mij in contact brengen met developers in de @Rabobank@mastodon.nl en Funda? Beiden werken sinds kort niet meer op het grootste Europese mobiele OS, /e/OS (>100.000 gebruikers en snel groeiend). We komen graag in contact met de ontwikkelaars van deze apps, want dit is absoluut niet nodig (voor veiligheid of andere redenen) en we zouden hen graag hen een guide toesturen die deze alternatieven beschrijft.

OnePlus exists EU, US markets
Rumours had been circulating for a while, but now it's official: OnePlus is effectively retreating from the European and US markets.
Today, our hearts are undoubtedly heavy and mixed with emotion. As part of the proactive global strategy adjustment, OnePlus has decided to conclude new product rollouts in Europe and North America.

GrapheneOS, the mobile Android OS geared towards security and privacy without consessions, is at Android 17. It is now in the beta channel, there will likely follow another build shortly that makes it to the stable channel.
The team did a fantastic job porting over so quickly and meticously.
I have been running the experimental releases on a Pixel 9 Pro and a Pixel 7 and it has been smooth sailing.
Google is marching ahead in locking down Android, via its developer registration mandate.
I am hopeful that we will find a way - through regulatory intervention or otherwise - to preserve software freedom on Android, including for apps available via @fdroidorg , but I am not overly optimistic.
(Sure, it doesn't affect non-Google Android, but that is irrelevant to many, many Android users.)

Fecking #android ... anyone know why Android will just stop connecting to WiFi networks and just switch to cellular data? I'm like right near my own home WiFi AP.
Is there some setting buried somewhere having to do with WiFi and location?
No dobra. Jako nietechniczny chciałbym pozbierać opinie. Dostałem komentarz, że /e/OS z którego się tak cieszylem, że udało mi się ogarnąć na telefonie, jest nic nie warty w kwestii prywatnościowej i wolnego oprogramowania. Ktoś z Was ma rozeznanie?
Z tego co ja rozumiem, to są jednak jakieś jego plusy, bo chociażby pozwoli mi nadal instalować aplikacje z f-droida (acha, f-droidowi też się oberwało w komentarzu, więc przy okazji powiedzci co myślicie), blokuje trackery z apek i jednak jest znacznie mniej uzależniony od googla niż zwykły android.
*sigh*
Looks like Android is stripping GPS EXIF from photos whenever they're shared.
Affects QuickShare / Bluetooth - https://issuetracker.google.com/issues/485307531
And the web photo picker - https://issuetracker.google.com/issues/40287342
Basically the only way to get geolocation is using USB transfer.
Like, I get the privacy aspect, but it is so annoying to explain to users of @openbenches that they can't upload via the mobile website any more.
Getting rather frustrated that the latest Android strips location EXIF from the web file picker.
Doesn't seem to be any workaround that'll let you pick a photo and have a web browser see the geolocation.
Like, I get the privacy issues, but it is rather frustrating for location-based web apps.
(Before reply-guying, please test if the code you found on a 4 year old StackOverflow post actually works on modern Android, thanks.)
The convenience of synchronisation between devices are the most common argument that I hear from friends why they are so invested in the respective walled gardens. But the same advantages can be obtained with old well-tested and open standards. Example: get an SMS with e-mail, add it to contacts and then have it autocomplete in @thunderbird@mastodon.online connecting to whichever mail provider your heart desires, thanks to the magic of CardDAV and IMAP. No need for Giant Mail :)
Here are my personal recommendations for apps on GrapheneOS:
* App Stores: Sandboxed Google Play, F-Droid (with IzzyOnDroid repository), Accrescent (installable via GOS App Store), Obtainium (for APKs)
* Phone: Default AOSP/GOS phone app
* SMS: Default AOSP/GOS messenger app
* Contacts: Default AOSP/GOS contacts app
* Camera: Default GrapheneOS Camera app
* Browser: Vanadium (default), Vivaldi browser (Play/Obtainium), Firefox/Fennec (Play/F-Droid)
* File manager: Fossify File Manager (Play/F-Droid)
* Gallery: Fossify Gallery (Play/F-Droid)
* Notes: EasyNotes (Accrescent/F-Droid)
* Calculator: OpenCalc (Obtainium/F-Droid)
* Weather: BreezyWeather (Obtainium/Play/F-Droid)
* Mastodon: Moshidon (Obtainium/Play/F-Droid)
* Matrix: Schildichat (F-Droid, own F-Droid repo)
* Sunup: For apps that support UnifiedPush as notification service (Obtainium/Play/F-Droid)

However I can highly recommend the FreeOTP+ fork which has some other nice features, but crucially, saves and loads data correctly.
