FDroid vs FDroid Basic in c/fdroid@lemmy.ml
[-] lemmyrolinga@lemmy.ml 4 points 1 month ago

Tried Neo, didn't like it enough, FDroid seemed cleaner and simpler.

I might try droidifyin the future, but it kind of annoys me that everyone is suggesting other apps instead of answering my question. I'm not asking for a replacement, I just want FDroid to work.

FDroid vs FDroid Basic (lemmy.ml)

I've using FDroid for some time now, but now it says "it was developed for an older Android version (I'm on 14) and can't update automatically" I read that FDroid Basic was recommended for newer phones, so I installed and copied my repos (still have both apps) but it doesn't recognize my installed apps. Am I missing something?

browser for webapps? (lemmy.ml)
submitted 7 months ago by lemmyrolinga@lemmy.ml to c/privacy@lemmy.ml

I'm looking for an android browser to open webapps isolated from my general browsing

I've been using Mull as disposable browsing and brave for login into places (shopping, social), but I don't like that if I want to stay logged it also keeps history record. I think it would happen with any browser I use, right? Any suggestions?

Just checked and it's already updated there.

Clarifying: the app is there but not this latest update yet. It'll have some delay. You can use obtanium if you don't want to wait

Duck Tracker Block vs VPN (lemmy.ml)
submitted 7 months ago by lemmyrolinga@lemmy.ml to c/privacy@lemmy.ml
6 comments fedilink

Hi! I started learning about privacy a few months ago and there is a few (many) things I'm struggling to understand and I would thank you if you could share some documentation/sites to learn more

One of the issues is about DuckDuck Tracker Blocker on android phone (low/moderate threat level), which takes the VPN spot. Is it really useful? I've uninstalled several apps and replaced with FOSS when possible, so it's not blocking a lot of stuff lately (or so it says) I've also been trying Proton Free+nextDNS (also not sure how to choose lists) but IDK how to decide which one is better, but I'm wondering: does DNS make the blocker app redundant? Isn't it kinda the same job (different lists, maybe)?

Thanks in advance!

Those terms are so vague and have so different meanings to a lot of people that I often avoid using them... I recently read the idea that egalitarian=left // strong hierarchy=right and it kinda makes sense, but it's still quite debatable

Should I add any other repo? in c/fdroid@lemmy.ml
[-] lemmyrolinga@lemmy.ml 4 points 7 months ago

Good to know. Added it because I read it had some extra apps. I'm trying new stuff

Why not? Not reliable? Not safe? I'm re-learning (stuff got obsolete since last time I was interested)

Well... More or less. They specifically told me that I needed a "public domain email" and that it couldn't be encrypted. I read their ToS and it wasn't written anywhere. They didn't sound like they were too tech savvy and I had to insist before I got that answer. They are most likely just a call center with a manual to follow.

What I bothered the most is that they allowed me to change the mail. The kept sending me (wanted) ads there and I could login into their site. They even kept charging my subscription. Until I tried to pay for extra tickets. That broke their system and got stuck. After that I couldn't even use the tickets I already had in my account from the subscription.

I'm not proud to admit that I finally caved and went back to my old mail for the moment. I even had to show them an ID (which at least partially defaced before) so that I could use the tickets I has already paid for

Social Media on RSS? (lemmy.ml)
submitted 7 months ago by lemmyrolinga@lemmy.ml to c/rss@lemmy.ml
2 comments fedilink

Hi I'm not a fan of social media and I left TW recently because I realized I spent too much time in there doomscroling and getting angry. That's how I found Lemmy

but there are still a few IG and TW accounts that I would like to keep tabs on (local news, content creators, stuff like that) Is there a way to maybe put all that in a single app in a controlled feed? I though maybe RSS (Been using Feeder recently, still building my sources but I like it) could be an answer but I haven't found a tool that's free and still working (I know it's the opposite of their business model)

My hopes are not high, but thanks im advance for any answer
