Safest way of using WeChat on Android?

I live in Canada. My girlfriend is Chinese (also living in Canada), and while we are able to communicate via SMS, her mobile carrier isn't the best, and so there have often been issues for us with regular texting. She expressed a strong preference to use WeChat, at least as a backup option for when texting fails us. While I...

Personally I'd be way more concerned with using OEM Android in the West than using wechat anywhere but if it's really an issue for you then I'd say insist on trying session or signal.. One of those are probably your best options if you're worried about being spied on..

If she's unwilling to try them or doesn't like them then I guess you have to settle for wechat or traditional SMS (although without RCS I find SMS to be a trip to a previous decade lol)

If enough people steal via self checkout they will go away. (This is not shopping/self checkout advice)

Yeah I've been looking for an alternative to Nova myself. I've tried many but I just keep coming back for one reason or another.
.I have graphene os but the default launcher is a little too plain for me. The search continues I guess. I'll check some listed here that I haven't tried. Maybe lawnchair will be worth it when they put out a new release.

This is just American voters in general every single election. Vote red. Vote blue. Doesn't matter. It just keeps getting worse.

It's all one side. I know fans of each party like to twist themselves in knots to find daylight between them but outside of the culture war nonsense & which brand of idpol they subscribe to, the distance between them has only gotten smaller with every passing election in my lifetime.

The supposed solution to trump and the gop (who was labeled a dangerous madman that would get us into ww3) was to elect Biden and the Democrats

What has happened since?

  • Provoke Russia
  • Provoke China
  • Provoke Iran
  • Arm Nazis in Ukraine
  • Aid "Israel" in their genocide

All while their own citizens continue to struggle with basics like food & shelter.

Will republicans be happy to continue all of these? 100%. But let's not pretend there's some grand meaningful difference between them unless your most important issues fall within the category of the culture war in which case you must be doing pretty well.
