Best advice! +1

Well done mate! 👏👏👏

Thank you! There is a beginning for anything.

Lets talk about IMEIs of our phones too... Why is it illegal to change your phone IMEI?

Exactly!

I just want to say I LOVE YOU!

And YES you are RIGHT! And YES FUCK these fuckers!

I'm with you!

I'm using /e/ os for more than 3 years on different devices (with some customizations) and it works like a charm. An important aspect is that you can install e on any phone that has the bootloader unlock and supports GSIs - theoreticaly any device that runs Android > 9

/e/ has a gsi image which is neat!

I don't use nor promote any banking apps or other G**gle/proprietary dependendent apps.

Why nobody talks more about e.foundation /e/ OS?

Enlighten me please 🙂

Well put!

I've been saying this since they made their services available...Nobody listened to me.

Usually when I said sth. like you mentioned, people look at me like they look today:

Ohhh...You are a conspiracy theorist...

No mate, I have a better understanding of the fucking computers and technology because I do this for a few decades...

Hoping they will listen to you!

"Historically, the default name for this initial branch was master. This term came from Bitkeeper, a predecessor to Git. Bitkeeper referred to the source of truth as the "master repository" and other copies as "slave repositories". This shows how common master/slave references have been in technology, and the difficulty in knowing how the term master should be interpreted."

Why fast-paced, what is the emergency? Unless...

Well said!

"Many people probably won't be bothered by these things, but I am."

You are not alone! There are still many knowledgeable people who understand what you mentioned.

Thank you for bringing up this topic!

Enjoy playing the guitar! 🙂

Here we are! Some people get this! Well said!

If one is to compare apple to apples, imho the decision to choose between Signal, Whatsapp and Telegram and other "messengers" is obvious and clear.

Signal is fully open source! You can run it on-premises, if you know your business!

Why are we not talking about it?

I hope my comment will not be discarded/removed as not being in sync with the narative... 😉
