I prefer NextDNS for blocking ads and trackers, you get to choose your own blocklists and white/blacklist domains of your choosing if you run into some problems.
There’s nothing that stops a FOSS app from doing that
I’m well aware there’s no technological obstacle. many people choose FOSS maps over Google to have less of their data collected though, so I could imagine they’d object to such practice, which would make the feature less effective.
I have been looking all day for a FOSS keyboard that’s under active development. It seems like more of not all of the ones I’ve seen recommended haven’t been updated in over a year some three years. I don’t mind if it’s a long time between updates but I want to know bugs will be fixed eventually.
Is it possible to one day replace the privacy nightmare of Amazon with a decentralized merchant network? All I really use Amazon for these day is aggregate customer reviews by query, then buy the items as direct as possible. Why can’t respectable tools to this instead? I understand the cost, but could the tech be adopted?
now that’s just rose-tinted glasses speaking. I remember how absolutely abysmal old Firefox’ scrolling was, and how they’ve claimed multiple times that they’ve improved it but it was still horribly sluggish compared to Chromium browsers. I’ve been using Firefox Preview (and then Nightly after enough performance improvements have landed on it) for about a year just to have acceptable experience on mobile.
I do miss the tab bar, it would be great to have it on the tablet. I can’t comment on how differently the browser behaves now regarding storing loaded pages in memory though, because most of the time I’d have an underpowered phone that would kick out everything out of memory when switching apps anyway.

Foss navigation with traffic?
Is there a way to show traffic on Osmand+ or another foss app which includes navigating around traffic jams or calculates the rout based on traffic?

Is there a good open source Facebook Android app?
I know the correct answer is to stop using Facebook, but there’s a couple communities I follow for certain updates I can’t get anywhere else....
Any Open-Source RCS apps yet?
Are there any apps that support RCS that aren’t made by Google or a crappy cellular provider (ie: bloatware Verizon apps)?...
