At least might help compete with Firefox to improve Foss browsers.

Signal really is that better replacement for WhatsApp since the functionality is identical, others would have to force people to get used to the different ui and the options.

Thx for the effort 🙏, the repo looks very interesting gonna have a look later

😂, I guess for big corps it’s like cents

Yup, it hijacks the price more. Like how computers could be cheaper if they hadn’t windows

That’s unfortunate, less linux on the market is kinda sad

Lmao, “required componentes to protect your privacy” 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Didn’t knew about it, thx for the Intel 🤙

I don’t even use google anymore, I am currently using brave search (actually pretty good).

Not sure in terms of privacy if they respect that much but in my perspective brave aggregates results by themselves instead of just using the google or bing results so they are at least a decent alternative.

Also the ai integration has been good in the search results imo.

Better wayland support nice 🔥💯

Install the fdroid apps. Eternity is a good example of a fdroid app for lemmy

You can always switch to another language later on if anything goes south, since a lot of the thought process is the same behind the scripting 🤞

Honestly I wouldn’t be surprised, I don’t know much about Go but based on Google’s track record it seems like the gameplan is to sell a bunch of user data to third parties and go rich

I have recently unlocked the bootloader of one xiaomi phone and it was kinda annoying imo, you basically have to wait (7 days I think, or more) when using the official unlocker of the xiaomi website for them to unlock the bootloader (without it you can’t degoogle the phone).

There is a lot more telemetry then usual, its China + google that are collecting all your data instead of just google if it was a pixel phone for example. The good side is that there is support for custom roms like lineageOS and its derivatives but I would much rather pick a pixel and put grapheneOS in it if the price wasnt a issue or if you could grab one second-handed.

Besides that, I guess if I was buying regardless I would try unlock the bootloader and install the a custom rom like lineageOS as fast as possible.
