Everyone talking about how tremors were not detected in India. Nobody talking about where the earthquake actually occured. Nepal is on an actual fault line, the alert system would be a perfect place for it, but no…
People in Nepal:
Well I guess we'll just die during an earthquake, then.
I have a chinese friend and when I asked them to look for signal, whatsapp, or telegram, the apple app store had them all but they didn't work after they installed it. They just got a loading screen or couldn't sign up.
Android custom ROM scene was big back when I was rooting and playing with ROMs, as people found how to root their obscure phones by translating chinese forum posts. You don't have to access apk sites, there are other ways to share apks. Last I heard fdroid was accessible from China as far back as 2014 until recently.
Here's a quote from fdroid themselves.
In the Chinese app store market five to ten commonly used app stores, and yet even the largest has less than a majority market share. Most Chinese people have more than one app store on their phone, so there is no monolith there, whereas “outside of China, Apple and Google control more than 95 percent of the app store market share”.
Do some research before you perpetuate misinformation that confirms your bias.
But fuck the CCP for authoritarianism.
Now they're not really any better than Android phones in terms of apps and being able to bypass the firewall

So if RHEL is affected, it means Rocky and AlmaLinux is too.
For people I don't know or just started talking, I give them my telegram username that's not linked to my personal phone number. For friends and family, I use signal.
Lots of opensource projects have telegram channels for updates. Not to mention news and local updates as well.
People need to incorporate a social aspect of the real world. Everyone isn't as privacy conscious as you are and you can have multiple apps for different scenarios.
If you don't ever want to meet anyone new, signal is perfect.
what are the differences between Insular and Shelter?
that just makes spamming, vote manipulation, astroturfing, brigading, more easier.
unfortunately, that's a problem with most custom launchers.
the instance hosted by you is going to be the most privacy friendly.
you have to trust someone else in any other instance.
Still have the OG Pixel XL for unlimited image/video backup. Released in 2016. battery doesn't last long, a little burn in but still works well with Android 10.
All sorts of data you provide it. hihi

I guess the birthdays, your work/home schedule, daily routines, your bills, the level of procrastination in how keep avoiding your reminders.
