so i found somehow this project what seems to work on supporting the controller https://github.com/ndeadly/MissionControl/issues/568
I also found this artikel over at phoronix that the rumble support will be added in kernel version 6.6 https://www.phoronix.com/news/Linux-6.6-Stadia-Controller-FF
It exists a similar tracker to the airtag by Samsung but idk if you can trust them anymore than apple. I have a 9 year old step sis and with her we have had problems with her because we couldn’t track her. In her school phones arent allowed at all. My mother and my stepdad really doesn’t care about privacy or security their use windows China phones etc. they usually use an app provided by google " family " I think it is called there thy can also lock up the phone etc.
I am glad that I don’t have the problems to be honest with you. What I would do is to look for a device that can do the job for me were the server can be selfe hosted. If literally nothing exist I would try “do it myself”
If you selfhost a nextcloud yourself this will be easier idk to be honest if this is up to date anymore and if its real time but check https://apps.nextcloud.com/apps/phonetrack Set it up and glue if possible a small phone that you trust on your girl and you are ready to go
Alternatively look for a mini pcib PC like a raspberry pi zero or something like it put somehow a Sim card in there and get it to work (good luck with that). Program a software that pings your server once per minute or every two. Then you would have to make a case were you can put your mini tracker and a powerbank into. And hang this device to a belt that your girl would have to were
I know that is a very stupit way but hey more private it cant get
Good point but to be honest I just compile my stuff from source so that I can get the newest version of the software the security aspect is forms at leased a nice side benefit. In distros like Debian I can see the complications with the newer completed packages but with rolling release distros never experiencessed some problems with that.
Why cant you? Here is the link for the build instructions form ungoogled chromium https://github.com/ungoogled-software/ungoogled-chromium/blob/master/docs/building.md
I’m currently using thorium as an appimage and it is god enough. But to be honest if you want privacy use Firefox or a fork of it.
