Nerdy dude that likes Linux, FOSS and Japanese.
After my fairphone 3 died, I bought a Fairphone 4 via murena.
wait you didn't buy a replacement battery? 🤨
Does your phone support anything else? LOS, Calyx, etc
Yes only LOS
I know that GrapheneOS is really easy to install. Problem is that I don't have a Pixel.
From the looks of it GrapheneOS still seems like the best choice by far..
Yeah. I love the idea of the easy installer. Mine isn't listed either.
Sounds pretty straight forward. What is compatibility like? Have you tried any banking apps?
How good is /e/ privacy based LineageOS fork?
I'm looking to get a custom ROM that has good compatibility with my device. Would you recommend /e/? I couldn't find a tutorial on how to install it with Linux but I don't think it should be that hard to figure out.
seems like i cant escape elon musk on my feed..
Anything not communist is far right to these people.
Ngl, after reading most comments you seem like the only other person with a brain in this thread.
most people on lemmy are delusional
I see that WhatsApp notification 😞
I tried joining a Misskey instance last month with a VPN on and got kicked out :c It feels like I've tried everything in order for the algorithm to recommend me good videos. I try to like and comment on every good video I find. It has been like this for years at this point.
Struggling to find enjoyable reading and listening material
Hi. I'm a big YouTube guy. I spend a ton of time watching YouTube videos. But for the life of me, I can't seem to enjoy Japanese YouTube. I do enjoy watching SOME vtubers occasionally when they play fun games. Other than that I don't really read much unless it's on reddit/lemmy or github. Someone pointed me to a Japanese mastodon instance but it has a pretty intense VPN block.
What do you guys watch/read in Japanese?
I like DDG lite a lot, but I need to be able to search for images :c
SearXNG seems to be free and private, checkmate!
Every single company in the world is dead (for me). Let's collect and discuss alternatives! ✊🛡
Earlier today I found many lemmians that suggested abolishing freedom of speech because of bigotry. They are absolutely nuts on here.
I use these instances: https://search.inetol.net/ https://search.hbubli.cc/ It's working great so far. The only issue im having is that it pulls Chinese results every once in a while.
Startpage seems like a pretty good alternative. I read their privacy policy and it looks pretty solid.
How private is the Presearch search engine?
I've been trying to find a good privacy respecting browser, but I can't really decide on what to use. I don't like the search results with Brave Search. DuckDuckGo shares my information with Microsoft and SearchXNG shows me NSFW images even with strict search on. I really like Presearch, but I'm not really sure what they're about.
EDIT: After tinkering with the settings of my SearXNG instance, it seems to have reduced the amount of NSFW images. I think I will stick with SearXNG for now.
