I have infinix Hot 30. At least they allow bootloader unlocking which is becoming rare these days.

Even if custom Roms don’t exist, you can try gsi

You notice it on old hardware. On my Latitude e6220 (i3 2nd gen) there is a night and day performance difference between windows 10 and Linux.

I use artix Linux with hyprland WM. System uses 384mb of ram on idle.

Edit: Even with extreme debloat you can’t get this performance on windows.

Yes, you are right. But windows load programs Into ram that I don’t even want to use.

In addition to less ram usage thee is also less CPU usage and faster boot time (with HDD).

Its an old laptop that only has 4 gigs of ram. I think performance is clearly visible when the fan in windows is spinning like crazy playing a YouTube video.

I don’t care that much about security. For me lineage os is less bloated than graphene os.

No, if you have another launcher installed with quickswitch support (like Lawnchair). Then you will be fine.

Note: QuickSwitch requires root. It’s for gestures and navigation support.

  • You can’t revoke android.permission.INTERNET at runtime. You can only revoke at install time. Since you don’t have root you can’t revoke that permission.
  • Did you check settings? There is an option to remove background data access from an app.

Just remove as much permissions as possible. If you want more control rooting is still “the choice”. BTW Banking apps can work with root if that’s the concern.

If you don’t want root. Use a custom ROM like graphene(if your device is supported) or voltageos(if your device is not supported by graphene)

When people post YouTube links, is there a cool open source way to watch it on mobile without going through youtube, firefox, or downloading adblockers?

When people post YouTube links… is there a cool open source way to watch it on mobile without going through youtube? Because when I click on a YouTube link and I’m on my phone and it immediately gives me an ad it’s pissing me off like in a huge way… is there a way to bypass ads without an ad blocker on my phone
