Just Czech republic, I've already tried this in mullvad, it never connects.

I've used mullvad but that can't punch through either no matter what. Unfortunately I don't have enough mobile data abroad to fuel my streaming needs for the entire duration of my trip.

I'll talk to the reception when I get back to the hotel I guess...it's really frustrating and I hate using hotel WiFi without a VPN.

Wait what!? I can backup my entire 36tb library for $10/month!?

it's a problem because graphene os doesn't pass google play safety check, or whatever it is called. They are apparently not able to make the sandboxes play services good enough to pass so the app accepts it's validity.

The thing is, I'd need the government 2FA app (which doesn't work in graphene) when logging in to my bank on a browser as well, so that doesn't change anything.

And I can't do anything, I can't check my digital mailbox (not email, we have something specifically for official communication with bank, government etc.), I can't log in to check messages from my kids school, I can't order a doctors appointment...you get the picture.

No that doesn't work either, but we use a 2FA app to enable mobile banking access, SS access, school communications/message board etc., basically anything that requires you to prove your identity. That app doesn't work in graphene at all, it flat out refuses and states the OS isn't secure or the app isn't installed from a valid source, so all things dependant on this doesn't work on graphene.

Edit: a lot of other things also fail because graphene apparently doesn't pass the google play safety check either.

People contemplating moving to graphene, do be aware that banking etc. absolutely can be a major PITA on graphene as well. Several official apps used where i live cannot work in graphene, even with sandboxed play services installed, making day-to-day life functionally impossible with graphene. Luckily reverting to stock android is easy, although I probably wouldn't have bought a pixel phone if I was planning on using stock OS.

Why does the US get to be in charge of this?

America, fuck yeah!

Yeah if I pay 3700€ for a printer, I expect it to work flawlessly out if the box. If I wanted something that just works pretty well, I'd stick with the 250€ printer I have now.

There's a web interface included that works OTB.

Im running qbit in docker and haven't had a single issue with it.

Wait...why wouldn't you direct someone to safe piracy just because of their age?
