I remember reading that GOS eventually wants to develop their own hardware, although I’m sure that is many years away.


This does seem crazy. I thought maybe they transfer over all the person’s data, but no it says in their FAQ that you lose all your data in the process.


I’ve had a lot of luck with banking apps on GrapheneOS. Worth a try if you haven’t already.


What’s the point then? Is it fdroid specifically?


You can download the APK from their website and it auto updates itself. It fetches notifications without Google required.


its not a huge issue on KeePassXC because I keep a yubikey nano plugged into my laptop, but for my phone, I haven’t been able to make this work reliably with KeePassDX. I’ll have to give it another go.


Ok great, coming from Reddit, I was unaware I could edit the post title. thanks


I like the look of KeePassDX but I was bothered by the fact that I have to use the yubikey every single time to unlock the database, unlike keepass2android which allows me to store the yubikey credential with biometric lock until the phone restarts. Keepass2android is not as nice of an app but that feature was really required for me.


It does require some configuration within yubikey manager. I did not find it straightforward but once set up its really reliable.


correct, I typed it wrong. It is Beeper.com but for some reason I thought it was beeper.im


oh okay, ya I meant single board computers like a raspberry pi


Would self hosting be possible (and fairly reliable) on a SBC?


So I can sign up for beeper and connect through Element or another Matrix app of my choosing?


Beeper.com - how does it rank in terms of privacy?
I am looking for a solution to receive WhatsApp messages on my phone. I don't want to install the WhatsApp app on my personal phone, but it is on my work phone and its mandatory for my job. I held out for a long time but it is necessary that I answer messages on there. Beeper.com is enticing but it appears to have a lot of trackers for an app that claims it respects privacy. What do you guys think?

Is the fact that you’re using a bridge at all apparent to your WhatsApp friends? Or is nothing different as far as they are concerned? Also, does Element have a setting to prevent pictures and video from being automatically downloaded over cellular data?
