Did you choose Allow OEM Unlocking in the phone settings ? The comments in that article show more users with problems. With some phones (Motorola ?) you need to request a code from the phone company before being able to unlock.
Disclaimer : I searched for more information, and having used custom roms on phones before. I do not know anything about this phone brand.
You made progress! Maybe you will need to wait for some days before unlocking works. And the company of your phone seemed to have a community forum, which is maybe useful ?
I used Avenza Maps in the past for offline navigation at various state parks. The park service provides maps and the app will let you navigate the trails. It’s been a long time since I used it and I now have a new phone on which I never installed the Google Play services. The app is complaining that “check that Google play...

The Izzy repo may be popular but with getting more than 1000 apps in that repo which are also in the main F-Droid repo I’ve been hesitant to add it.

Izzy repo downloads from the app upstream, does a malware check and that is all it seems.
Hi everyone! Since I was absolutely fucked by Skiff (thank fuck I didn’t pay for it) I’m looking for a new email provider :) I’m not sure I like how proton is transforming into a full on suit, I only need email. Any other recommendations or is proton my only choice really?
I don’t think the encryption for Skiff, Tuta and Proton did add any real and important value for most users. Posteo and mailbox.org with IMAP seems fine to me.
I’ve been working hard on the privacy spreadsheet, which has been in development for over 150 hours now. Its been updated, and now includes more messaging apps and more data, with a better format. I’m still working on the sidebar issue, if anyone knows how to fix it, here’s the GitHub repo:...

But does this mean that in 6 months I just don’t have an email there anymore?
Yes, sounds like it. I can imagine that they have decided for this path, instead of a server migration Skiff->Notion, to make sure that previous non paying Skiff users do pay at Notion if they choose for Notion.
