Thank you for this, i will look into it.

 

I Went a little crazy with degoogling.

In general

  • From Chrome to Brave/Waterfox
  • Gmail to ProtonMail

Tablet:

  • Chromebook Lenovo Chromebook Duet 3 to Postmarket OS

Mobile I already had my old Pixel Fold running GrapheneOS, now I also installed it on the Pixelf 10 pro. This one I will use the coming weeks. I heard of rumors that the battery drain is terrible but I will experience that for myself.

I have two phones which run Chinese roms

  • The Iqoo z11 Turbo - This is my daily driver
  • Vivo Fold X 3 - This one does not run any google services this resulted in a very nice nice battery experience.

I do not want to change anything else on these Chinese phones, but I'm wondering what impact Android 17 will have on the Chinese models?

 

Especially in the last year with Trump taking office I have the feeling that all the declassifying by he government and a rise in so called documentaries like that of Jeremy Corbell are nothing else than a distraction from a more serious subject or incident.

Come to think of it maybe it has always been like that. Governments around the world found out that people were fascinated with UFOs and used this to there advantage. The whole UFO scene probably started with a trick of the eye or an optical illusion. And Alien abductions probably started with abusing of drugs and alcohol or being exposed to dangerous fumes. Hell the need for attention and money is reason enough.

I really would love to believe Bob Lazar and he seems a genuine guy but spilling secrets like he did, people have been killed for less.

Is this me just having an edgy take or do you feel the same way? By the way I still hope there is something out there.

For me it is also difficult to get rid of Whatsapp because family and work use it. I really like YouTube and am still hoping for the great next YouTube alternative. I use Proton for mail, calendar and online Drive. I use a Chinese mobile with F-droid and Aurora Store. I also have an old Pixel phone with which I'm experimenting with GrapheneOS For my desktop I'm still experimenting with which Linux is the best fit compatibility wise.

I'm currently using Brave as browser but I'm thinking of switching to Waterfox or Vivaldi.

Edit: and my DNS is from a European server.
