That's all fine and good but Firefox on Android is currently in a sorry state. No per-site process isolation, buggy, can't keep tabs open, slow, choppy, drains battery. Had to uninstall it on my brand new Galaxy S24+ and my Pixel 6 Pro because it was draining so much battery. When are you going to finally stop ignoring Firefox Android, Mozilla?

jacktherippah ,

I ran Firefox Android with uBo and AdGuardDNS.

Well here's the drain I was talking about at least. 18% in less than an hour and thirty minutes of use for a web browser isn't normal. In an hour of use a Chromium browser only drains 6-7 ish % for me. This has been an issue for I guess the past month or so? It drove me crazy so I had to uninstall. And it's not just me either, there are tons of posts from people with the same problem on Reddit. If you don't have problems, good for you I guess.

Well that was 18% of 90% so still awful drain regardless.

jacktherippah ,

Any reason to switch from Aegis?

jacktherippah ,

It's open source. Authy isn't.

jacktherippah ,

Can we have a YouTube competitor? Pretty please? 🥺

jacktherippah ,

I would donate if I wasn't so broke =)

jacktherippah ,

I use Orion. It's basically Safari but way better.

jacktherippah ,

Still not available in my country. Sadge.

New crime unlocked: thinking un-patriotic thoughts

That's the Vietnamese government for you. Such blatant overreach and I've seen little discourse on this issue. So many people blindly trust it because national unity/national security/patriotism or whatever. If you dare to oppose the government, they're taking you to the police station for questioning. There's basically no press freedom and internet freedom is shit as well so where the hell are people going to get differing opinions? All the articles I've read are simply parroting the government. This shit would never fly in a democracy. The writing has been on the wall for a long time. I'll be finding ways to get tf out of here

jacktherippah OP ,

DNA and voice is voluntary at least for now, but they will do a mandatory iris scan. Doesn't make it any better in my books. The fact that the government even wants this much biometric data is ridiculous.

jacktherippah ,

I don't. I charge it when I wake up. It's about ready when I need to go.

jacktherippah OP ,

I got vaccinated too, like 3 times. The first time I got COVID was before the vaccine. Still got infected after but symptoms were more mild and recovery time was way faster. That first time without the vaccines were absolutely brutal.

jacktherippah OP ,

Yeah I got tested (RT-PCR) at a clinic too. COVID 19 confirmed. The rapid at-home test got it right all three times.

jacktherippah OP ,

I've had 3 pfizer shots.

jacktherippah OP ,

Well they got it right all three times sooo I'd say pretty good for me.

jacktherippah ,

Just as a heads up, Exodus is highly misleading

jacktherippah ,

Too risky, I'll pass :(

jacktherippah ,

I recommend sticking to GOS. If you'd like to use something else, I'd recommend DivestOS. CalyxOS, LineageOS, /e/OS and iodéOS are all significant downgrades in usability, privacy and security and therefore not worth using on a Pixel.

Why do all the new TVs expect me to have a platform AS WIDE as the fucking thing?? Fucking shit!! God awful absolutely dumb thoughtless design choice (lemmy.world)

luckily this is just a 32; i had a 70 from the same brand with the same INSANELY FUCKING STUPID STAND DESIGN that i had to find something for....literally at the most extreme edges of the thing, what the fuck is this? this is so fucking stupid, it cannot be meaningfully cheaper than a proper design and it looks fucking dumb as...

jacktherippah ,

I don't have anything to say about the TV sitch but your cat is pretty.

Here's what I do. I have GrapheneOS with 3 user profiles for compartmentalization. Mullvad VPN on and set to different locations in all profiles except owner profile. I straight up don't use the owner profile. I let it sit empty. I only use the two other profiles as they don't have as much access to the phone. One's my FOSS profile, which is my main profile. The other one's my big brother profile, which has Sandboxed Play Services. I think that's good enough for me, and I try to keep on top of permissions to limit what apps can access. You can always go further though, with more compartmentalization, no Play Services whatsoever, using no SIM/toggling airplane mode,FOSS dedication,.... but it all depends on your threat model. For me, I think what I'm doing is good enough.
