…For all of them, we strip device identifier (MAC addresses, IMEI, etc) from requests where they normally would be (and if required use random but valid identifiers instead).

Good choice 👍

I don’t know performance issues is gone for me (147.0.3)

btw Fennec and Ironfox is much slower than Firefox for Android

maybe you can give a second chance :)

I still don’t know what’s special about this launcher, really

wow there is many many unlauncher clones is there (both F-Droid and Play Store) I guess people really need to quit screen addiction

I even download the apps directly from the Play Store from another device, generating an APK from it with an appropriate tool and moving to my main phone, which uses a vanilla system.

What? Why? There is many untouched app distrubitors (apkpure, apkmirror…) and you can evem be 100% sure by checking hashes

You can use microG for apps that require Google Services, I’m using it for 6 months with no problem at all.

I think it’s better than official client.

I use most of Fossify apps I like their simplicity

If you like Terminals you’ll love Termux

It’s performance is very bad. I don’t suggest IronFox.

Minimalism is better.

Most important software choices:

Browser: Firefox or it’s forks (install uBlock Origin for blocking ads, trackers, annoyances…)

F-Droid Client: F-Droid Basic or Droid-ify

Then if you need something just search on F-Droid it’s repository is really good.

When you search on F-Droid maybe you’ll find 10 alternative you can eliminate the unactive apps and you can look their source code repository to see how active they are and you will find ~3 application just choose one and if you don’t like you can change easily just don’t overthink.

If you have some other question/help Lemmy is a good place for that.
