The past part sounds like a joke, love all the sources, but they all have a beef with GOS 😆
So bringing up GOS in those communities can spark some controversial discussions
In the meanwhile in GOS community it’s strictly prohibited to mention those projects, and every time any of the projects says “Graphene” GOS asks them to not to 😅
I’m thinking of getting a second phone to ease off iOS. It has been good for productivity stuff but the closed off nature of the device keeps disrupting my plans. Everything is either expensive or ad ridden. (Except floccus, floccus is awesome)...
I’ve got some DOOM WADs I have been meaning to play so I would probably grab Trench Foot, Total Chaos, and the sequel to Ashes 2063, Ashes: Afterglow with a portable install of GZDoom to play them....
I’m concerned about the privacy implications of DNA testing services like 23andMe or AncestryDNA. What are the potential risks of sharing our genetic data with those companies, and are there any privacy-focused alternatives available?

Hi! I’m swapping my daily android phone for the nth time today and going through my set-up “check-list”. As apps are updating/installing, I thought I’d check in with the hive-mind, what are you all doing to make the process easier? Maybe you know of a way to self-host some sort of android profile server? I’ll post my...

There’s a special status for some people in Russia, it’s called Foreign Agent, and I believe they need to write down everything they spend money on this way
I installed NetGuard about a month ago and blocked all internet to apps, unless they’re on a whitelist. No notifications from this particular system app (that can’t be disabled) until recently when it started making internet connection requests to google servers. Does anyone know when this became a thing?...
Just missed a meeting today because I accepted an event on Thunderbird this morning, that should have synced to Nextcloud, and then to my phone running a calendar app from ‘simplemobiletools’. Never made it. After I missed the meeting I didn’t see the event on nextcloud, then went to look at the event on thunderbird, and...
I will probably up this one, it’s really a lot of materials, and articles, and news if you read behind all this war and politics stuff
You should really search, I tried to compile all I could find, but I’m here to stop using tg, not going back to tg and scroll Russian opposition channels for all the mentions of stuff like that

Also, from the search it’s really hard to find anything because a lot of stuff about the war
Here are a few topics:
Telegram leaking location
Telegram leaking IP address
Deleted many years ago chats/messages were recovered remotely (just recently)
Telegram is delaying source code publishing
The source code’s build has a different hash and a few mb smaller than the release
Their data sharing reports are empty although they were openly giving data to authorities in e.g. Germany
Compilation of different technical vulnerabilities and issues of telegram(in Russian):
Android has it too, and I played it a lot on different phones. But recently I started to go full open source/minimalism, but pirating requires different shady versions and app to be installed
