A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

Regulatory capture seems about on par for Google these days. I suppose I'll be switching back to OnePlus for Android devices; that'll be about it for Google stuff in my home.
Assume that all devices ship with spyware
Suddenly, I miss the old days of Android. I suppose it's back to CyanogenMod or whatever it is these days
GrapheneOS
Direct replacement for Cyanogen would be Lineage. There are dozens of decent ROMs to try though.
I still opted for iOS in the end. As much shit as Apple pulls, they did 6 year software updates when only flagship Androids got 3 and they aren't generally trying to dominate the Internet.
Running it now it is great.
I dont mind giving a company money for a product, then the transaction ends . What i don"t want is to buy a car then have the car sell my daily location to people.
