I gave their github issues a look and I did not find anything similar to this…

The repo is the correct one. I have no useful advice unfortunately. Either reinstall, use signal or wait for someone who can be more useful.


Is your pixel up to date? Could you please provide the fdroid repo you have added to your fdroid client?


Try enabling “exploit protection comparability mode” on the system app settings.

I do not think this is it though.

If you do not set a passphrase, does it work as expected?


Could it be that the browser shares false information on purpose?




IIRC the flapak packaging system is completely open source while snap does not release the server code.

Also, snaps were forced to the users, had terrible performance at the start, thus, making them unpopular.



Proton VPN and proton pass

IRRC they even removed all telemetry from pass but not VPN.

They should definitely push drive and calendar there too.



I have had the same issue. For me the last few weeks I keep changing VPN servers due to them being blocked.


Imagine having to explain to a casual user, SO, sibling or parent that you, while fighting to preserve your anonymity, google blocked the house. xD


Mullvad is proven. Not that proton is not, but there were a few controversies about their operations.

Mullvad is accepting payments with actual private crypto currencies. Mullvad had authorities visit their operations site, demanding data and left empty handed as they did not have anything to offer. The same cannot be said for proton. I personally like that they do not offer free services and that they are advocating for privacy through ads and foss projects like the mullvad browser.

Proton is only publishing on f-droid, their vpn and recently their pass application. They have yet to provide notification services for de-googled devices after years of community demands. They have opt out telemetry.(except the proton pass through f-droid.) while mullvad does not, correct me if I am wrong on this.

Since you asked about the VPN, everything mullvad is running is on ram so nothing is saved. (I think this is only for their owned servers though not all of them.)

That being said, I use the proton suite as there is no other alternative right now and the casual user in me is satisfied. :)



I think you are confusing phones, PCs, consoles and music.

Sony phones are by no means worse than stock google phones. They offer very close to stock experience.

*Send from my pixel with Graphene


NFC payments ARE supported by Graphene. Gpay is not, due to google not supporting it. If your bank app, has the option and no reliance to gpay you will be able to pay with your phone.

IIRC the project has a page with the ones that do work.



NFC is working as expected on graphene. As is mobile payments, if your bank supports it.

Google pay does not work because Google does not allow it to work, there is not a technical reason behind that.



What are you talking about exactly? Kindly disconnect from tor and lets have a chat about it…
