Okay so I think we got mixed up, the app I’m talking about doesn’t seem to be on play yet. I think its only on fdroid and github. Its a client for misskey

Yeah just kinda sucks all Foss operating systems feel like they are stuck in 2011 in some cases.

As far as I’m aware find my on iPhone can work even when the phone is off, this is because the phone kinda acts like an airtags where enough information can be exchanged securely.

I don’t see any visible lag on 6a. Just some progress animation until images are loaded. Am I missing something?

are you on graphine?

Yeah, sorry for the mispelling…

Where would I change that?

Kaiteka is one

Just attempted to use it and got an error?

This should make following the trans activist I follow a bit easier. Just glad I don’t need to use X directly

Also I don’t think teens see a flagship that often honestly, like a galaxy S23 Ultra would likely not get any hate until they joined a group chat

Apple just has good marketing honestly, growing up it was pretty rare to give out your number so I message wasn’t really a thing. The main driver honestly is marketing. Androids are seen as cheap, iphones are seen as rich. The UI is sleek and magical. The ecosystem just works, and services like airdrop are ubiquitous. I fear we might see all major flagship players step out of the US as gen z gets older and android being branded in the US as exclusively budget and IOT.

Yeah I just wonder where it compares to other sectors. Though 60% iPhones would explain my I tend to see so many of them

I mean I have a pixel currently so its not my bias

Its kinda sad this likely won’t be included in AOSP and be a Google feature rather than an android feature

Is it possible to exploit these phones in the future, I remember unlocking the bootloader on my amazon fire tablet using an exploit.

I have a pixel 6 and generally like it. Googles stock rom is where my issues with the pixel come up. Generally its not spookier than any other googled android phone. The rom looks good when the device is knew but from what I’ve seen online it tends to get slower after 2 years. This is nor an issue for me however since I moved over the graphineOS.

Damn didn’t know that lol.

I still don’t think doing stuff like listing apps on the device is possible without at least a sandbox escape.

I use graphine and put all the spooky apps in my “work” profile and that seems to make me feel safe enough, keep in mind while I would love it if I could convince every single friend to move to FOSS applications I know deep down that would be really hard to do

I use android and I will still say I think iOS had an edge when it comes to security. iOS sandbox is far more restrictive of what apps can and can’t do. While I disagree with certain restriction others I can see. Keep in mind as far as I am aware android apps can still do things like list every application on the device, and don’t get me started on Google Play services

And if you make enough spelling errors, your post essentially encrypts itself! :D

*dies from insults

Yeah but most non tech people don’t know what that or end to end encryption is cause schools didnt teach this stuff. and likely never will without causing end to end encryption to get banned

One thing I hate is while I dont trsut metas encryotion, it isnt even a default which at this point in American history is just irresonabile and reckless. It sucks we can’t teach about open source in schools.

so how does that work in iOS 16, I thought they hardcoded reactions so they appear correctly in iOS? WTF

I use graphineOS and even then my work profile is fully Googled, the reason for this is so many things in proptairy apps depend on Google Play, most notable being notifications.
