For me this video is the norm because i frequently experiment. There rarely is a problem wich doesn't require me fixing 3 different problems

They do infact value your privacy. Only to them it is of low value

Currently im not using any google services except vanced microg i currently plan on using the proper microg to get google play working. Afaik there is a "LineageOS for MicroG" but not sure wether that's official or even up to date.

Also "you can't just say perchance!"

I don't run google services but afaik there is just an extra zip called "gapps.zip" that you flash after lineage itself

My problem was a lack of freedom: i couldn't change some settings that i wanted and also i couldn't give gadget bridge the necessary permissions to function properly. I need gadget bridge for my pine time smart watch

Same for me. First thing i did after buying a pixel was install GrapheneOS. However i felt like it was to locked down in the name of security so i switched to rooted lineageOS

Well you can only have one vpn on at a time. on normal android anyways. Im pretty sure you could change that but i got no clue about networking

Well time to make a good open source alternative.

Set your config directory to be your home directory and outplay those apps

So in linux you have an extra directory just for configuration files/directories wich often start with a . (Dot) (that's why they are calld dot files). But some applications dont use that directory but rather just dump them into your user directory, wich causes it to get cluttered with files wich should be put into the ".config" directory

I literally can't find a single plasma config file that i'd need to edit...

Steam is the exception because every first parzy launcher is proprietary afaik but steam is the only one with linux support
